title: General medicine and surgery for dental practitioners. Part 4 - skin disorders part B.
abstract: Skin disorders are potentially important to dentists in diverse ways. The skin disease itself might have oral manifestations, and drugs used to treat skin disorders may impact on dental management. This second paper on skin disorders continues with a consideration of those disorders, and aspects of their treatment, which could have relevance to dental practitioners.
