One major objective of a new edition is to update information and simplify the subject matter so that it is more easily assimilated by the reader. Although the scope of the textbook remains histology, molecular concepts have been integrated in areas where they are essential for understanding embryogenesis and development, cell function, and tissue formation. Illustrations are almost all in colour now, and new figures have been added to facilitate visualization of the subject matter.

The textbook is intended to serve as a learning guide for students in a variety of disciplines. The first chapter provides an overview of the subject matter covered in the textbook and sets the stage for a subsequent detailed treatise by topics. Although coverage is exhaustive, the text has been structured such that individual chapters and even selected sections can be used independently. Also, focus is on learning and understanding concepts rather than on memorization of detail, particularly numerical values. Thus dental hygienists, medical students, and undergraduate and graduate dental students will all find a degree of coverage suited for their respective needs.

Finally, as for the previous edition, a major objective is to sensitize students to the concept that, in addition to being pertinent to clinical practice, better understanding of the development and biology of oral tissues is expected to engender novel therapeutic approaches based on biologics that will likely be used by oral health practitioners in the foreseeable future.
