Apposed to my Modern Dental Assisting book, this book goes into great detail for dental materials. This is considered to be a large part of your job as a Dental Assistant. I will be a EFDA- Expanded Function Dental Assistant, so this book for me is necessary. The illustrations are great and the way things are explained makes for easy comprehension. I did not however see illustration or direction on making a mounted articulated jaw with maxillary and mandibular dentition for occlusion reasons, etc.
My friend purchased this for a job that she wanted (dental assistant) and she read and studied this book amongst others and learned a lot. She was not even in school for dental assisting. When she got the job, she knew more that other new workers. Great buy.
This is a mandatory book for the Dental Hygiene program and it seems okay so far, I haven't read far into it.
This book is great except it's pretty dry. Not very interesting to read and kind of hard to follow because of the flow of information. The lab sections were very helpful with the broken down steps and pictures.
I realize I have teeth, and with teeth come great responsibility. I also came to the conclusion that a book on dental materials would help out my sister as she is in school for dental things and would need this book per order of her teacher. I bought this book thinking of my sister. I love my sister.
This is a great book even if you are not going into a hygiene or assisting program, but have worked in the feild for a while and aren't up to date on what is current. Perhaps the dentist you have worked with for the last 20 years only uses the same old thing and you have forgotten how to use all the other materials that are out there.The chapters are well organized, with outlines and summaries. A+ I love it.
I chose this book from this seller because it was stated that the book was like new. Upon opening the book I found that it had MANY highlighting marks and that the answers at the end of the chapters had been answered and written it in. The book was not in the condition as described upon purchase.
