About the Author
Professor William George Young has seen and followed more than 1500 patients with moderate to advanced toothwear over the past 25 years, maintaining a specialist practice dedicated to toothwear and dental erosion. Having lectured and worked concurrently at Universities for more than 35 years, Professor Young has supervised and co-ordinate undergraduate and postgraduate research projects in this field. The book Teeth on Edge, (2002), remains at the forefront of this field.
Dr Farid Khan has conducted extensive research into the Toothwear field and has co-authored the text By The Skin of our Teeth (2009 in Press) with Professor Young. Together they have completed many research projects and authored journal articles, which focus their efforts on presenting findings and their passion for the field at numerous dental conferences, seminars and continuing education events for more than a decade. Dr Khan has recently been awarded a Queensland Government Grant to publish a guide for Queensland dentists and to formulate multiple choice examinations for continuing education purposes concurrently.
