Contemporary clinical teaching and learning in dentistry and other health professions now integrates the biosciences with clinical scenarios. This Oxford Handbook of Applied Dental Sciences is, however, the first that provides a format to support this style of learning.

Hugh Devlin and Rebecca Craven have a vast experience of teaching and learning in dentistry and have been at the forefront of advances in this integration. Understanding the relevance of the non-clinical science to the clinical practice that it underpins is now known to provide much more effective learning. This integration enables deep learning. It stimulates interest in the biosciences for the clinical learner and its application becomes more meaningful.

Hugh Devlin is a successful teaching and research enthusiast. He has taught undergraduates and postgraduates at the University of Manchester for over 35 years and his depth and breadth of experience could not be more appropriate for the development of this book. He is a respected clinical academic with over one hundred scientific publications many of which explore the link between basic dental science and their clinical application. Hugh received the IADR Distinguished Scientist Award (2011) for Research in Prosthodontics and Implants.

Rebecca Craven worked in general dental practice and community and hospital dentistry before spending over 25 years in successful university research and teaching. Rebecca, like Hugh, has vast experience in and a passion for teaching and learning and could not be better placed to produce this book. Her studying for the award of Fellowship in Dental Surgery required returning to bioscience study after several years of clinical practice and this sparked a lifelong passion to integrate the two disciplines. Rebecca now leads postgraduate Masters programmes in both research and Dental Public Health, a discipline in which she is an NHS Consultant. She also leads the first year of the undergraduate dental programme. Integrating bioscience with clinical care and seeking to apply, appropriately, the best evidence, is at the heart of the University of Manchester Dentistry programmes and of this book.
