With a focus on the most commonly used drugs in dentistry, this book provides an in-depth understanding of the pharmacologic principles needed for safe and effective dental treatment and oral health care. It discusses drug properties and mechanisms of action, dosages, intended effects, interactions, and adverse reactions, both for the medications a patient may already be taking and for the drugs prescribed by the dentist.
