Note
Knowledge and best practice in this field are constantly changing. As new research and experience broaden our knowledge, changes in practice, treatment and drug therapy may become necessary or appropriate. Readers are advised to check the most current information provided (i) on procedures featured or (ii) by the manufacturer of each product to be administered, to verify the recommended dose or formula, the method and duration of administration, and contraindications. It is the responsibility of the practitioner, relying on their own experience and knowledge of the patient, to make diagnoses, to determine dosages and the best treatment for each individual patient, and to take all appropriate safety precautions. To the fullest extent of the law, neither the Publisher nor the Authors assume any liability for any injury and/or damage to persons or property arising out or related to any use of the material contained in this book.

Preface
Undergraduate students will never see many of the conditions discussed in this book. Despite this, on qualification they are expected to not only diagnose them, but also institute appropriate referral or treatment. This, the eighth edition of Cawson's Essentials , is therefore not only updated, but also designed to make clinical relevance immediately accessible to the learner.
We have used more colour illustrations and have introduced symbols to link the text to the diagnostic summary charts. The text has been updated with many new sections on cancer, premalignancy, osseointegration, sinusitis and disturbances of taste, as well as new diseases such as bisphosphonate-induced osteonecrosis. There is a new section on normal healing of tooth sockets, an important topic hardly covered elsewhere. Some chapters have changed relatively little, such as that on caries, but the importance of understanding the disease process is now more clearly linked to clinical practice in tables.
Self-directed learning is critical to develop understanding. New learning guides now follow each section, an attempt to help students direct their own learning from other sources, because no book can be comprehensive. References have been updated but remain largely unchanged. Often the older classic papers are those of most use to undergraduates and the retention of these older papers is deliberate.
Our thanks are due to Clive Hewat, Alison Taylor, Kerrie-Anne Jarvis, Erik Bigland, Mike Parkinson and all the team at Elsevier for maintaining the excellent production standards and rescuing many of the older, now almost irreplaceable, photomicrographs.
This edition of Cawson's Essentials is, sadly, the last to which Professor Cawson will contribute. He died shortly after the manuscript was completed. A dedicated teacher, he understood how students were often baffled by the complexity of our subjects. He was a master of succinct text and ruthless in editing out ideas without an ‘evidence base’, long before the expression had been invented. Cawson's Essentials has been published continuously since 1962 and it was the first textbook to integrate oral medicine, pathology and surgery in a practical, student-orientated fashion. The many students who have relied on it over the last nearly half-century give testimony to his breadth of knowledge, intellectual authority and the clarity of his writing.

CHAPTER 1. Principles of investigation and diagnosis

The principles of patient investigation and diagnosis are summarised in Box 1.1 .
Box 1.1
Principles of investigation and diagnosis

• A detailed history

• Clinical examination

Extraoral

Intraoral

• Special investigations (as appropriate)

Testing vitality of teeth

Radiography or other imaging techniques

Biopsy for histopathology (including immunofluorescence, immunocytochemistry, electron microscopy, molecular biological tests)

Specimen for microbial culture

Haematological or biochemical tests

TAKING A HISTORY
History-taking needs to be tailored to suit the individual patient, but it is sometimes difficult to get a clear idea of the complaint. Many patients are nervous, some are inarticulate, others are confused.
Rapport is critical for eliciting useful information. Initial questions should allow patients to speak at some length and to gain confidence. It is usually best to start with an ‘open’ question ( Tables 1.1 and 1.2 ). Medical jargon should be avoided and even regular hospital attenders who appear to understand medical terminology may use it wrongly and misunderstand. Leading questions, which suggest a particular answer, should be avoided because patients may feel compelled to agree with the clinician.
