Dentistry Books

This book is the best book I have ever read. I really think it will help younger kids to learn about the dentist. It also shows that going to the dentist is not scary, and how it can be really a lot of fun. I think it is an extrodinary book. I highly highly reccomend everyone to buy it.

This book is wonderfully written and illustrated. It addresses all aspects of the dental visit. It is a great learning tool for young patients at dental offices as well as for teachers in the elementary grades during dental health education. This book also appeals to the preschool age child and is great help to parents who want to acquaint their children with oral health and what to expect at the dental office. I highly recommend it.

Recommended in "A Basic List of Recommended Books and Journals for Support of Clinical Dentistry in a Nondental Library" in Bulletin Of the Medical Library Association, July 1997.

This text is Dr.Grant's legacy to the study of periodontology and clinical practice of periodontics. He was the senior author on this text for more than thirty years. He was a world renowned lecturer, researcher and practitioner. He continued teaching and research until four months prior to his death in April of 1998. Many of his research papers are required reading in classical periodontal literature for periodontal residents. His text remains a wealth of knowledge and instruction for clinical practice. His eulogy was published in the Journal of Periodontology in August of 1998. It details many of his accomplishments as well as the high regard in which he was held by his colleagues.

I bought this book to supplement hands on trainings in periodontal surgery.
More than half of the pages contain beautiful photographs, color pictures, and diagrams with easy to follow and extensive explanations.
It covers everything from cellular development to implants.
This book is by far one of the best clinical guides written about the periodontium and periodontal surgery.

This textbook, written and edited by the field's leading experts, has been needed for quite a while. It includes all the necessary information that any perio text should have---chapters on etiology, prognosis, treatment, etc---but goes above and beyond. With chapters covering complex suture techniques, systemic disease links, microsurgery, implants, medically-compromised pts, conscious sedation, and surgical principles, this text is the first truly comprehensive lesson in periodontics. The high-quality color photos set the bar high for future textbooks on the subject, and it belongs in the library of not only residents but accomplished clinicians.

I read this book last year when I was preparing to try a post-graduation course here in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, about prosthodontics. It has opened my eyes about laboratory and clinical details which we must pay attention if we want to do a high level work to our patients. In Rio and Sao Paulo it is out of stock and fortunately I've already have mine.

I met this book about 6 years ago. When I open the first chapter, I was suprised. If you want to treat the patient better, you must read this book. All clinical techniques and dental lab procedures are in this book. I recommand this book to all dentists in the world.

I discovered this text after I'd been out of dental school a couple years. This is, indeed, a rare animal in the dental world: up to date, clinically practical, well organized, and, dare I say, understandable? MUCH more useful than Pathways of the Pulp. Wish I'd had it in school.

Great review book & heads straight to the point.
I also found a huge store of images /illustrations to lead users all the way through. I would highly recommend this book for the library of any general practitioner.

This text provides a comprehensive review of occlusion and its practical applications both conceptually and clinically. It is a great resource for both students and experienced clinicians.

It's a happy surprise to find out that in an extremely controversial issue, there is an author that doesn't want to be the "master of the truth". The greatest virtue of Mcneill's book is that most of the chapters have the massive contribution of a varied number of well known professionals in the subject they know best. It's not only about occlusion and tmd's but it goes from biologic principles and interactive mechanics of the estomatognatic system to the ultimate clinical therapies in an argumentative and scientific speech. Definitely a "must read" for Oral Rehabilitation practitioners.

It has a good balance in theory and Practice. the Art of Ceramic Restorations needs this kind of books. I agree with Dr. Walter Brant.

I bought this book for a friend who is just starting her own library. Excellent book for any one starting in dentistry or just wanting a book which covers all the bases. Covers instruments, equipment, techniques and drugs. It is loaded with great picutres and models.

SMALL ANIMAL DENTISTRY: A MANUAL OF TECHNIQUES is a 'must' reference for any college-level holding strong in small animal veterinary science. It's designed as a 'how to' manual which uses color photos to provide a step-by-step walk-through coverage of common techniques, and will serve as an excellent classroom manual as well as a vet's reference. From proper tools and techniques to close-ups of common conditions and discussions of challenges in small animal dentistry, this reference is packed with insights and perfect for both vet classes and practicing vets alike.

Absolutely agree with the earlier review posted below. This volume was published in 1999, and an updated volume should be coming along soon, but meanwhile, this exhaustive collection of words relating especially to ears, nose, throat, and teeth is without peer. If you're an MT looking into expanding your library because you've found yours wanting, Stedman's is the place to look, and this book is a crucial part of such a library.

"Plastic Surgery/ENT/Dentistry Words" is a gem of a reference for the transcriptionist doing work in any of these specialty areas. It is chock full with 69,000 entries derived from >40,000 medical words, phrases, abbreviations, and acronyms. These are conveniently cross-referenced. Who of us has not heard, for example, some kind of "flap" mumbled by the dictator while transcribing a surgical report; here, a list of >4½ pages of various types of flaps are blessedly enumerated. Additionally, surgical instruments and medications are handily listed as well.

Four appendixes complete this volume: 1) anatomical illustrations [54 pages of them!], 2) sample reports [op notes] ranging in variety from typical liposuction surgery to an orbiculopexy, 3) common terms of procedure [such as septoplasty terms, etc.], and 4) common herbs in both Latin and common terminology. This latter is interesting, but I am confounded as to what is its use in this volume.

Nevertheless, this handy volume is really the Bible when it comes to a reference for anyone transcribing medical reports in the above-mentioned specialty areas. I recommend it highly!

There are lots of books for oral sugery but this one is really good for the general dentist as it covers procedures that can be done in private practice. I particularly like the emergencies section for its simplicity and methodical approach. A real good book.

As a Dental undergraduate, having started the clinical oral surgery course. I have found the synopsis a great help. Not only does it clarify the work I am doing clinically, it shows the applicable methods in a clear and concise manner. Illustrations complement the text in a very clear manner, and sometimes tell the whole story, which is good if like me an undergraduate, you dont have time to read chapters and chapters of a book. I would recommend this book to all dental undergraduates, and those in related fields, eg oral surgery dental nurses, medical students etc
