The working title of this monographic volume was 'Dental Health.' It is the obverse, of course, a compendium related to dental disease. Even though malocclusions and clefts are not diseases, they are important conditions that lend themselves to epidemiologic techniques similar to those used to study dental caries and periodontal disease. This text attempts to marshal, present, and document the essentials about the main problems in dentistry.
