I purchased this book for a community oral health class for dental hygiene. I had a hard time getting through this book. Not a good read.

This is a mandatory book for the Dental Hygiene program and it seems okay so far, I haven't read far into it.

Bought for my daughter in college. Great price.

this book is wonderful i like the practical use of the easy to understand nice book please look at it

Great condition

For college

I do recommend buying this on the Kindle, that is what I did. I was able to highlight and look up terms at the touch of the finger. The subject matter is boring and there is nothing you can do about that. This book was a requirement for my dental hygiene program.
