I just got my copy and I am reading through it. The chapters on caries and periodontal disease are very current. I will be able to add these not only to my CE courses but to my research studies in oral biology. Thank you for this timely textbook.

Book was in better condition than described! It looked brand new. There was some highlighting on a few pages as it said there would be but no wear and tear at all!

This book was much more affordable than others listed and it was still in great shape. I am very satisfied!
