After doing my dental assisting training on the job I started preparing for this test rather blindly. This book is VERY informative and when having conversations with girls that went to school for dental assisting, I had known things they didn't. It is very thorough. The wording is easy to understand and the publisher has a website with additional study resources as well as the answers to the chapter review questions and practice test. Highly recommend!

Easy to read and study, especially since there's an online tool that goes along with the book.

Thank you so much! I love it! Perfectly described, can't wait to break it open for school!

Arrived promptly and still in shrink wrap!

super fast and in great condition
