What is
the Atlas of Pediatric Dentistry
The Atlas of Pediatric Dentistry is the interactive, web-based
sequel to the classic textbook, An Atlas of Pedodontics, which
tens of thousands of dentists remember as the pediatric textbook of
choice during the 1960's, 70's and 80's.
Written in
the traditional Atlas format.
The new electronic
Atlas Of Pediatric Dentistry uses an atlas presentation for most
of the content, with text material supported by clinical images and
illustrations. Typically, each page includes text material accompanied
by relevant clinical photographs, radiographs, or illustrations.
The
Atlas of Pediatric Dentistry offers:
- Comprehensive coverage
of pediatric dentistry
- Chapters on oral diagnosis,
dental anomalies, local anesthesia, pediatric restorative dentistry,
pulp therapy, traumatic injuries, surgery in the primary dentition,
space management, preventive dentistry in pediatrics, infant and
toddler oral health care, and behavior management.
- An atlas format that
combines text with color photographs, radiographs, drawings, and
other images.
- Interactive quizzes
at the end of each chapter.
- A color photobank composed
of nearly full-screen-size photographs to use for patient and parent
education.
Perfect for
educators
The Atlas
course content progresses through multiple levels, and can be used for
introductory and professional learning. For example, the Atlas
is successfully being used in the introductory pediatric dentistry course
at the University of Washington, as well as in the pediatric dental
and pediatric medical residency programs, where it is especially useful
as residents are given broad responsibility for treatment of children
and adolescents. Much of the content is also appropriate for dental
assisting and dental hygiene programs and other universities are successfully
using it in their predoc programs.
Extensive photo
library
The Photo Bank
is a unique feature of the Atlas. The Photo Bank contains numerous
large images with page titles as the only text. The images include color
clinical photographs and radiographs. It is designed for care providers
to explain various conditions and treatment approaches to parents and
children. These images can be shown to parents and children to demonstrate
concepts more effectively.
