I graduated from dental school in 1985, and being in a specialized practice of dentistry, I needed a good general review of restorative dentistry, so I ordered this book to "bring me up to date".I found this to be a good book for the most basic concepts of operative dentistry. I was satisfied with the book as it fulfilled my modest objectives. However, for most dentists, the procedures presented here are those that are likely practiced daily in a general dentist office.Therefore, this is not a book for general dentists. It is a good book for dental students, for those studying to pass their dental boards, or for the specialist who desires knowlege of general operative techniques.It is not a book to learn advanced operative dental techniques.This is the 2006 edition, so it is already 3 years old. As fast as the dental field is changing, I recommend the latest edition if you are interested in purchase.konedog

Great Resource. Has a taste of everything from prosthodontics to full veneers to white bleaching.

Buen tratado de operatoria de dental, algunos capítulos han quedado obsoletos. Recomendaría este libro a estudiantes de odontología y odontólogos generales que deseen repasar conceptos básicos de operatoria.

For the price I paid, this book was a steal. The book was still wrapped without a scratch even though it was labeled as "used." It came in the mail very quickly, and I was very content.

The item arrived in good time and condition as per 's promise. Good job all!
