I'm starting to finish up dental hygiene school and I wish I had this little book from the beginning! It' s a great reference for clinic and for boards and I can definitely see myself using it in private practice. I wish there was a section on radiology but the publishers put that in the Dental Assisting Notes. They packed a ton into this little booklet and they used great references (recognized associations and organizations and most every DH book I own for school). There are super helpful charts and pictures (especially for local anesthesia). This pocket guide includes: principles of dental hygiene, ethics, process of care, premed, BLS and medical emergencies, infection control, intra- and extraoral assessments, eruption dates, dentition and occlusion, G.V. Black, medically compromised patients, medications, anesthesia (drugs and administration), pathology, instrument designs and techniques, fulcrums, sharpening, dental/medical terminology and conditions, web-based resources, and even basic dental/medical questions and directives in Spanish! The sections are tabbed and color-coded for easy reference. It has a super handy index and waterproof pages. You can even write on the pages in ballpoint pen and wipe it off later with an alcohol swab! It's also OSHA and ADA compliant so it's safe to use. It's about an inch thick, as wide as a sticky note, and as tall as an index card (not including the spiral rings at the top). I've already recommended this to first and second year students and my school faculty. The only hitch is that it was published in 2011. Everything seems pretty up to date to me (except BLS is still ABC instead of CAB) but I would definitely buy any update that they put out.
This chairside guide is so helpful and thorough. I am in my second semester of hygiene school preparing to see patients for the first time and this manual will help me through those times of need. I highly recommend this book. I think the team that created this guide are genius and understand the challenges of this field, and truly want those who utilize this guide to be knowledgeable and successful.
This is a complete and important reference guide. It's concisely written, very lean and still big. It truly does encompass everything a Dental Hygienist would need to be on point all the time. I highly recommend making the down payment and keeping it for quick studies every couple of days to stay sharp.
I am an experienced hygienist and this is a great resource to have. We learn a lot of information in a short time in school and it's nice to have cheat sheets chairside. I personally could do without the instrument section and would love to see a radiography section instead but overall great resource.
First of all, I have to underline the super fast shipping, it took 2 days to arrive and when it arrives what a shock! This book is just FABULOUS, it has all the knowledge that we need to know as Hygienist student. It is very easy to read.
It was a perfect book to keep by my side while in school. If I had any questions, it was simple to pop open, search out the answer, and then wipe away any germs before my next use. I'd definitely recommend it!
These are awesome! There is a ton of info in here, but it is simple and too the point which is just what you need sometimes. It is like a little review of everything in school! Very convenient size too.
This is very helpful for anesthetic but for everything else, I didn't use it. Worth buying though and keeping by your side as a memory refresher.
