"Sexually Transmissible Oral Diseases provides an informative, descriptive and interesting overview of oral medicine and pathology which is applicable to all dental practitioners. This book is for anyone looking to expand their understanding and knowledge on the rising number of sexually transmitted diseases within the oral cavity. The information is easily read, and well-illustrated with colourful clinical photographs for reference, and serves as a great tool for revision for both undergraduates and postgraduate dentists."- Melissa Loh, Published in British Dental Journal (March 23)"Sexually Transmissible Oral Diseases covers an important aspect of the sexually transmitted infections (STIs) which is typically discussed as a small chapter within the venereological textbooks. For the first time, a compendium focuses on the oral cavity's role in STIs. The book is a valuable resource for dental practitioners, dermato-venereologists, genito-urinary specialists, infection disease specialists and other healthcare providers with interest in the oral cavity.""The book includes high-quality photographs that clearly illustrate the clinical and pathological aspects of the -presented STIs. The tables and images add extra value to the information in the text"- George-Sorin Tiplica, University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Bucharest, Romania,  Published in Journal of The European Academy of Dermatology and Venerology (JEADV)
