It gives me immense pleasure to write few words about the Textbook of Oral Pathology.
This book is the outcome of combined efforts of Dr Anil Ghom, Professor of Oral Medicine and Radiology and Dr (Mrs) Shubhangi Mhaske (Jedhe), Associate Professor of Oral Pathology and Microbiology. I know Dr Shubhangi as undergraduate as well as postgraduate student. I feel her sincerity coupled with hard work and humanly approach toward the patients during her postgraduate studies contributed in making this textbook.
My heartiest congratulations to Professor Anil Ghom and Dr (Mrs) Shubhangi Mhaske (Jedhe) for their great endeavor in bringing out this book. This book contains six sections which are divided into 37 chapters related to oral lesions/diseases inclusive of basic topics of oral pathology. The topics like microscopy, stains and routine as well as special investigations are noteworthy. The lots of updated information in this book will be helpful to undergraduates, postgraduates and also for practising dental fraternity.
The total of over 600 clinical photographs, microphotographs and line diagrams incorporated in the book are definitely useful for in-depth understanding of the subject. The textbooks available on these subjects are many, but only a few ones cover both the subjects: oral medicine and radiology as well as oral pathology. Contribution of Indian authors toward the books in dentistry is less as compared to the foreign authors. Therefore, Mrs Mhaske (Jedhe) deserves a word of appreciation for her sincere and painstaking efforts.
This book is an excellent contribution to a scientific literature in Indian scenario and thereby facilitating our students to understand various diseases.
With regards and best wishes.

7Preface
In the study of oral and dental sciences, oral pathology is the subject that concentrates on the morphologic changes in oral tissues which causing diseases and the mechanisms of the disease process. Most recently published works on the subject are the product of eminent authorities with multiple authorship with current research advances. ‘Why another book in oral pathology’? This question can probably be answered by the phrase,
“Nothing can be changed by changing the face
But many things can be changed by facing the change.”
The purpose of this book is mainly to provide the undergraduate and postgraduate students an easy way of reference for covering a broad spectrum of oral pathology in lucid and simple language. In support of all the composite works it can be stated that the progress of oral and maxillofacial pathology in its many varied specialties coming up has made the subject too vast to be covered adequately by a single author. Also a balance between the advances and the basic essentials is need of the hour. With this balanced perspective and from the viewpoint of the graduate and postgraduate students under training, the authors have endeavored to compile the oral and maxillofacial pathology with respect to the related essential clinical oral medicine and radiology. The book gives an extensive coverage and emphasises on detailed description, adequate well labeled illustration, flow charts, recent developments and molecular aspects. Aside from oral pathology in general, the initial phase of the book includes the basics of the embryology, anatomy and pathology. The study of microscope, tissue processing, diagnostic tests and advanced techniques are also included. The photomicrographs and the clinical photographs in the book signify the adage: “A picture is worth a thousand words”; as the reader is encouraged to study the details and to clarify the confusion of the topics.
Inspite of sincere efforts, elements of human error or shortcomings are likely; the readers are welcome to point out all such mistakes and render valuable suggestions for further improvements and shall be greatly acknowledged.
