The book itself is fine, very easy to read, However I uncovered my brand new book straight out of the package from and opened it and literally within 30 minutes the binding pulled out for my entire second chapter! so now i have a whole chapter that has come loose from the book and the pages are all individuals. If you are required to get this book for school be very careful with it as the glue in the binding for my book was VERY weak. Now it could just have been my book but be aware of this as you read and when you purchase.
Great book but the binding is a big issue during the first week of DH class the book started falling apart, pages were falling out. I had to take it to staples and have it spiral bound for $7 and so did most of my classmates. This book breaks down every tooth and provides flash cards to use. I strongly recommend before you start Dental Anatomy class you try to get a grip on tooth anatomy. It is challenging, premolars are especially difficult. Get your numbering down for each tooth and look for ways to be able to identify it. Start with Centrals, Laterals, premolars and molars.
I think that this book is completly well done, the ilustrations are superb as well as the explanations and the only thing that I founded wrong is the binding of the sheets. It is very easy that they get loose. That is a shame. Thank you.
Book was falling apart from the first 3 chapters... Litter ally the pages were coming out of the book. Very disappointed. Would returned it but I had presented it 2 months in advance and I wasn't home to verify the book. Said to be in good condition and and I don't call pages falling out of a book to be in good condition..
I bought this book because it was required for the Dental Hygiene program. I received it in due time; however, the binding was so poor that it was falling apart he minute I opened it. Thus, I exchanged it for a new one leaving a feedback to the seller so that they knew what the reason for the return was and could make sure that it was not repeated. No apology or acknowledgement from the seller but I did receive a second book several days later. Again the binding was unacceptable and the pages fell out of the book as soon as I opened it! I wrote another feedback to the seller expecting some kind of acknowledgement-nothing again. I have not returned the book this time because I simply did not have the time and needed it for my studies. However, it has now completely falling apart and is a hassle to use!
Disappointed!!! The quality should be better than this, as I read more pages it will eventually falling all apart!!! It bothers me so much.
I bought this book for my Dental Histology and Embryology class, within a week or two of light use the binding started falling a part. In addition to that I found a lot of typos and small errors throughout the book. The information in the book wasn't explained very well either. Overall, I felt very disappointed with the quality of this textbook. The work book that goes a long with it was even worse with a lot of problems with the crosswords (not enough or too many boxes, etc.)The diagrams were great, however.
So i had to order this book for class, but only two months in we have found two mistakes, such as mismatched Dental pictures with disturbances(p. 56,57), and definitions (appositional/interstitial pg. 23, which contradict its own definitions in the back of the text.) Other than that pretty helpful book!
