Nowlin, DDS, MA This page intentionally left blank Obituary Professor Doctor Major McKinley Ash was born on April 7, 1921. In 1942 he received his degree in electrical engineering at the Illinois Institute of Technology. In 1943 he received a certificate in physics from the University of Chicago. Dr. Ash served during World War II and was awarded the Silver Star, the Purple Heart, and the Croix de Guerre. He then completed his Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry at Michigan State University and married Fayola Foltz on September 2, 1947. In 1951 Dr. Ash received his Doctor of Dental Surgery from Emory University in Georgia and completed a master’s degree in Periodontics from the University of Michigan in 1954. During his 53-year career with the University of Michigan School of Dentistry, Dr. Ash founded and chaired the Department of Occlusion and directed the TMJ/ Oral Facial Pain Clinic and Stomatognathic Physiology Laboratory from 1969 to 1987. He was awarded the Marcus L. Ward Professor of Dentistry in 1984 and the school’s Distinguished Service Award in 1992. Throughout his career Dr. Ash was a prolific author, publishing over 200 scientific articles and seven textbooks, of which Wheeler’s Dental Anatomy, Physiology, and Occlusion is one. His work has been published in Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portu- guese, and Spanish. Dr. Ash died March 21, 2007 in Scottsdale, Arizona. He was a fine educator.

The continuity of subject matter and the basic informa- tion found in the previous editions have been retained to reflect the many years that this book has served as a resource in the field of dental anatomy; however, this ninth edition contains some exciting new features. Of particular note is the colorization of several black and white illustrations and photos. Often, the original photograph remains for a sense Chapter �� Pulp Chambers and Canals ��� of history but is combined with a color-enhanced view of the tooth being studied and a simplified line drawing of the view to highlight the primary characteristics of tooth contour and the primary anatomical features.
