Dentistry Books

I'd like to introduce you to a book that I think would make a wonderful addition to your library.

"Cure Tooth Decay" is a unique and groundbreaking book. Empowering the reader to use whole foods as a preventative and cure for tooth decay. Imbued with well researched and documented material.

You will surely benefit from buying this, as I have.

After reading "Cure Tooth Decay," I feel less afraid of living because I understand what my body is doing and why. This book demystifies the modern tragedy of tooth decay and gives a plain and simple protocol for preventing or healing tooth decay and thus taking part of the fear out of life.

Prof Terry Brown was one of my tutors when I was a student and the book, like the man himself, is a wealth of information which I referred to constantly. He is an excellent tutor, and the book reflects this fact. It was an enormous help to me, as indeed Terry Brown himself was.

"...probably the most up-to-date textbook on molecular biology...a useful text...and reference..." (Annals of Pharmacotherapy, September 2003)

"...a second edition to incorporate new developments in genome science and to make the book more `user friendly'...the book substantially exceeds that modest objective; this is a text suitable for anyone who does not specialize in genome science." (Clinical Chemistry, Vol. 48, No. 12)

"...this didactic masterpiece...model of a modern university textbook deserves to be read and studied by...students worldwide." (Modern Pathology, Vol. 15, No. 9, 2002)

"...a marvelous text...plenty of definitions and excellent illustrations essential for an introductory textbook...the reader is...guided wonderfully through the text...this text is an essential cornerstone of information..." (Pharmaceutical Research, Vol. 19, No. 12, December 2002)

Well written, easy to understand, and filled with useful/ practical information, Dr. Nozawa walks you through all aspects of dentistry - finding the right dentist who can fulfill your particular needs and concerns, insurance/fees, various dental procedures, the latest technology and much more. For anyone fascinated with dental medicine, you'll appreciate this book. For those who fear the dentist, it's just what the doctor ordered.

I have to respond to another reviewer who liked the book but questioned its trustworthiness due to some legal trouble Randall was in when he first broke into the business. From what I understood, it all stemmed from business/legal issues that had nothing to do with his qualifications as a dentist. It's not appropriate for me to go into details here, but he IS an excellent dentist. I know. I was his patient for several years. I had a lot of work done and he did an outstanding job. I was impressed by his articulate explanations of the procedures and his professionalism in general. And I've not had a problem with my teeth since. He was also the only completely painless dentist I've ever had. I'd recommend his dentistry to anyone and I'd recommend his book to anyone too.

The author indicates important characteristics of a good dentist.
i.e. caring, listeners Despite these characteristics, it is
critical to get a second opinion for a complex problem.Prices
vary considerably and they may be cheapest in Oklahoma.
Fluoride in drinking water helps to decrease cavities. Various
specialists handle different aspects of dentistry. i.e.
The Periodontist handles gum and bones. The Pedodontist handles
child dentistry. The Oral Pathologist handles oral tissue.
The Implantologist handles dental implants. A Restorative
Dentist restores broken teeth. Animal dentists repair teeth of
animals. An infection may develop from :
- poor brushing
- sugar, acid
- genetic tooth weakness
- saliva deficiency
- grinding teeth
- overly aggressive brushing

Saliva neutralizes bacterial acid and rebolsters outer tooth
strength with minerals and proteins. This book will help you
to complement any health maintenance library.

This book did provide some useful information, but seeing that Dr. Nozawa's license was suspended (see http://www.doh.wa.gov/Publicat/99_News/99-45.html), it is hard for me to take his book seriously.

Having known Dr. Randall Nozawa for almost 10 years I have to first tell you that he is one of the most genuine and pleasant individuals I have ever met. I am of the opinion that this is a wonderful book for anyone looking for answers about dentisty. It wasn't until I read Dr. Nozawa's book that I truly realized what a difficult and for the most part thankless job most dentists have. This book truly did give me an inside view into the world of denistry. I think that after reading this book that you will never be able to look at your family dentist the same way. Dr. Nozawa thank you for laying it all (the good, the bad, and the ugly) out there for us in laymen terms.

My son likes the book. It was on a list on a dentists web site to help him cope with his first dentist visit.
I recommend this book.

This book helped me get through life and showed me the true path to spiritual enlightenment.

The world lost a real gem of a writer when Stan Berenstain passed on November 29. Together, Berenstain and his wife, Jan, and eventually their two sons, created books featuring lovable but flawed characters who tackle just about every real issue that faces families.

Going to the dentist is something that most kids (and adults!) fear. And why not? It's invasive, uncomfortable, and sometimes painful to have someone poking around in your mouth with metal objects. However, it's necessary, and having a healthy attitude about it will promote lifelong oral health. This book is a great place to start if you're looking to help alleviate your child's fear about going to the dentist. It'll help open up a dialogue about your kid's fears and help you to explain why the dentist is so important. Wonderful!

Grab this book - this one should be in every library! It's a great hit at our house because in places, it's quite funny! Sister wakes up one morning with a loose tooth and thus, talks funny! The words are spelled as such so my little one gets quite the chuckle out of how sister says certain "s" words! Anyway, sister spends the entire day wiggling her loose tooth until it's time to take brother to the dentist for his checkup. The dentist finds that brother has a cavity and lets sister stand over the chair and watch while he fills brother's tooth. Brother does try to torment sister quite a bit about how the dentist is going to "yank our her loose tooth," so she is somewhat timid to get into the chair. However, she does and while she is busy asking questions and looking at the dentist's "yanker," the dentist feels her tooth in a cloth, wiggles it around and out it comes! Sister had no idea it even happened! She's pretty excited and thrilled about all of it and was very glad that brother was wrong about the yanker! She gets a dime from the tooth fairy and was very excited!

This book does an excellent job in describing what happens when you go to the dentist. It's great for getting rid of those little jitters and it really is accurate. Great job and I highly recommend it!

i love it,so does my son! he will be making his first trip to the dentist soon-ad at 29m old we need all the help we can get!

the only part that is questionable is how Sister gets her loose tooth pulled.It even gave me the willies!

Being a new mother i was exicited to read the chapter "From womb to wisdom." It is going to be a excellent guideline in my new childs dental health. Every parent should own this book for the imprtant dental needs that every shild most desperatly needs. Thanj you!

The authors provide an educational book in a fun and interesting format. To be a well-informed dental patient, everyone should read this book.

Being a new mother i was exicited to find information in the section "From Womb to Wisdom." It is going to be an excellent guide line in my new childs dental health. Every parent should own this book for the important dental needs that every child most desperatly needs. Thank you authors such needed informaiton!

I am a dentist and believe that this book has useful information for anyone interested in restoring and preserving their dental health. This book is aimed at the person who is apprehensive about going to the dentist. Based on the premise that most fear is of the unknown, Dr. Mac Lee, Joleen Jackson and Vicki Audette have written this book with the aim of demystifying dentistry.

Speaking personally, I know that sometimes I struggle to explain things that to me make perfect sense in a nontechnical, nonthreatening manner. This book does that.

It starts by discussing common reasons people are afraid to go to the dentist and tries to help get you past those fears. Whether you are afraid it'll hurt, or your embarassed for us to see your teeth, Dr. Lee gives tips on how to get past these feelings so that you can get the dental care you need.

The book goes on to describe various dental procedures, what is involved in them, and questions you should ask. I especially like the section on children's dental needs. It covers every age range and answers common questions about subjects such as baby teeth, braces, and broken teeth.

I can't tell you how strongly I feel that this is a great book for any dental consumer. I am ordering copies for several of my patients as well as copies to donate to our local library.

As a general dentist, I see many of my new patients struggling with the issues that are covered in "Nothin' Personal Doc, But I Hate Dentists!" Mac and Joleen have many combined years of experience in the dental field and they have taken this expertise and transformed it into "English" for the patient to be able to understand easily, instead of "Dental-ese" which we are often guilty of using when speaking to our patients.

This book allows patients to make informed choices and to give them an idea as to what they should ask their dentist during the visit. A well-educated, talented and confident dentist welcomes any patient questions. We know that the better informed our patients are, the better choices they can make for themselves regarding their dental health.

This book is a milestone in bridging the gap between dentists and their patients. I give it to all my new patients and encourage them to spread the word to everyone they know. Mac and Joleen have helped not only the general public, but also the dental community with the publication of their informative book. I recommend it for anyone who has a dental visit coming up, or if you are looking for a new dentist! (which, together, SHOULD make up 100% of the population)

This book, is one of the more complete on the oral pathology subject, excellent for students and essential for the dentist's office

I am a 2nd year Stomathological Medicine Ms. resident and have had this book from the beginning and must say it is a first class reference book.

Not only it is physically well done (thick glossy paper, full colored images and state of the art design), but it has a very complete content organized by clinical features, histopathological characteristics, treatment and prognosis and so on. It has also got an appendix with differential diagnosis.

To be an OMF Pathology work it has a very good OMF Medicine approach.

It is a must not only for undergraduate, but for postgraduates as well.

Simply put, this is the best text available for Oral Pathology. Incredible pictures, concise yet detailed information, etc. The change to color photos in the newest addition was a tremendous upgrade. Every dental practitioner should own a copy of this book.

I am a U.S. Army oral and maxillofacial surgeon and have enjoyed using this book since its first edition in dental school. Dr. Neville taught at my school and he and the other authors are passionate about their work. The book is comprehensive and well organized to help dentists and physicians care for their patients. There are certainly other great books to consider buying additionally, but this is a must have for a basic collection of textbooks. I refer to it often in my practice.

This book is very easy to use and is detailed yet not too detailed. All the information I have read so far has been very relevant and easy to read.

There are lots of pictures and the pages are thick and shiny, a pleasure to read

i purchased this book, and it was exactly what it was being adv for, no surprises and no other issues, excellent experiance.

Excellent new edition of the gold standard. Updated with new color pictures and new chapters on skeletal anchorage and temporary anchorage devices.

It's the bible of Orthodontics written by the man himself.

This book is truly the bible for orthodontics. It covers all aspects of orthodontics in detail with excellent diagrams and pictures. The only book you will need.

A good book about orthodontics, but Graber's is more complete.

A healthy mouth has a direct impact on a healthy body, a connection that is too often overlooked. Bad mouth hygiene and gum disease is linked not only to pre-natal problems, but also to heart disease. There is no more important time to safeguard your health than during pregnancy. This informative, friendly guide can make sure that gum health is not overlooked during pregnancy. It also provides guidance for good mouth health, and is essential reading, whether you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or even if you are neither!
Charlotte Libov, co-author, "A Woman's Guide to Heart Attack Recovery"

Pregnancy And Oral Health examines the link between gum infections during pregnancy and an increased risk of premature or underweight births, as well as heart attack, stroke, and other serious illness. Chapters provide recommendations for a simple, daily antibacterial program to support the body's natural healing, an eight-point test to determine if one has gum disease, advice for preventing pregnancy gingivitis, straight talk on why brushing and flossing alone may not be enough, and much more. Pregnancy And Oral Health is a superbly presented and welcome supplement to pregnancy reference shelves, and especially recommended reading for expectant mothers everywhere.

I picked up this book at a local writer's conference. Being a single male, I'm not exactly in the book's target audience, but I like to support local authors. I was very pleasantly surprised. Pregnancy and Oral Health offers very useful information in an agreeable, often humerous style. It is not a fear mongering book, nor is is simply a list (ten things you can do to have better breath...). It is a complete work on oral health, and specifically its importance in pregnancy. It passed what I consider the ultimate test for a "self help" book - it convinced me to change my habits for the better. I'm buying a copy for every woman I know who is thinking about having children.

The link between oral health and pregnancy outcomes has become an important focus in the women's health community over the past decade. It is clear that poor oral hygiene and a lack of oral health may contribute to morbidity during the childbearing year. With her book, Pregnancy and Oral Health, Sheila Wolf offers those interested in optimizing their health a valuable tool. This book is accessible, informative and motivating and clearly outlines simple behaviors that will improve one's oral health. As a nurse-midwife serving women throughout their life span, I found this book's content as pertinent to providers of obstetric care as it is to our clients.

Mama Gums and her immensely readable book most certainly saved my gums, my teeth, and maybe even my life. This entertaining book and its essential oral-care techniques are for everyone -- men and women, boys and girls, pregnant and non-pregnant, and especially dental professionals (who need to read it the most).

Sheila's book has all the information your dental professionals should give you but don't. Believe me, I speak from experience! After years of conscientiously soliciting and scrupulously following the "brush, floss, and regular professional cleanings" advice of my general dentist and first periodontist, I was rewarded with war-zone style bleeding gums at every cleaning, deep periodontal pockets, receding gums, and significant bone loss. My first periodontist told me my only alternative was extensive gum surgery. The periodontist whose second opinion I sought wanted to do even more extensive gum surgery. Yikes, yikes, and double yikes! I was paralyzed with fear.

My friend introduced me to Sheila via telephone and loaned me a copy of her warm, witty, and scientifically sound but completely understandable book. I read Sheila's book cover to cover and immediately began following her oral-care regimen. I also ordered several more copies for my friends, my family, and myself.

This week, I had the best dental checkup of my life -- no bleeding, no tartar buildup, significantly reduced periodontal pockets, tight healthy gum tissue, and one very happy camper. Sheila's book and my willingness to follow it made all the difference, taking me from oral-health hell to oral-health heaven in less than six months.

You literally can't live without this book, so buy it, follow it, and enjoy the results. You, too, will thank Mama Gums.

Very interesting book, a must in every Dental Library, reviews most of the situation that may face any surgeon or prosthodontic...

I have refused this item due to duplicate order from amazon. Thank you for the great business.

I have to say that so far this book has met my expectations. The chapters are very well organized and written, so you can skip from front to back and just go directly to the chapter of your interest. Of course, reading it in an orderly fashion would be most beneficial. The pictures and diagrams are beautiful. The first few chapters mostly describe the north american epidemiological situation regarding dental tooth loss. I would have preferred the book to have a more international approach in that sense. Regardless of that, I highly recommend this book to any dentist that performs oral rehabilitation or implant surgery. Even though I specialize in oral surgery, I perform prosthetic dentistry quite often, and this book has been very helpful in the short time I have owned it.

Logic for implants vs. dentures makes great sense to every dentist with experience in the limitations of removable prosthetics.

Excellent book to have on hand about implants, everyone here at our lab is reading it and the feedback is very positive.

This book is a decent text however it's not an easy read. I had to reread some parts to totally get the concept. It's not the worst textbook I have ever been assigned thought.

Free shipping, got it on time, and way cheaper than what I paid at the school bookstore!

This book is a MUST HAVE for anyone learning to administer local anesthesia (dental fields)!! The author really knows his stuff!!

I believe this is an excellent review about this subject, especially for students. its graphics and pictures are very educational.

I will be soon training to administer local anesthesia in the dental office where I work as a periodontal co-therapist. This is the book that is required and with the DVD it is perfect for studying. I would recommend this for any dental hygienist in this type of program.
