Treatment Planning for Traumatized Teeth

The tropics and subtropics comprise about 75% of the world population. Tropical diseases are not merely a group of nosologic diseases indigenous to the intertropical zone. Many are diseases of poor public health. Currently infectious and parasitic diseases along with emergent diseases such as AIDS, or old re-emergent, drug-resistent diseases constitute the majority of tropical dermatoses. Most tropical dermatoses are prevalent in Latin America and in other parts of the world. This handbook presents the geographical distribution, etiology, clinical picture, and treatment of dermatoses in the tropics. All diseases are illustrated with high quality black and white pictures.
