4.0 out of 5 stars
Great book,
By Simin Mah (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Clinical Practice of the Dental Hygienist (Point (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins)) (Hardcover)
This is a very good book for the first year of the Dental Hygiene course. It's easy to look up things and get quick information about everything a hygienist need to know. It's not very detailed but very useful book for quick reference.
The only reason i gave it 4 stars out of 5 is because it's American, and their system is a bit different.

This book is a MUST!!!,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Clinical Practice of the Dental Hygienist (Hardcover)
Often referred to as the "bible" of dental hygiene, no student should be without this text. Practicing dental hygienists can also benefit from the newest up-to-date information in this book. The textbook is practical and loaded with valuable details required for practicing the art of dental hygiene. The chapters are clearly organized and easy to follow. Resources and references listed at the end of each chapter can lead the reader to more information on the various topics. It could easily be considered a mini-encylopedia for dental health information. This book is a bargain!!! I highly recommend this book to students and practicing dental hygienists.

Dr. Wilkins is amazing!,
By AimeeRDH2003 - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Clinical Practice of the Dental Hygienist (Hardcover)
I attended a lecture given by Dr. Wilkins and had my 8th edition text autographed. She is a vivacious, wonderful woman and gave me the refresher I needed. The book is a wonderful part of what it means to be a dental hygienist. To see so many different editions (and so many matching gel pens) carried into the lecture hall was amazing. Truly a book treasured by the prudent dental hygienist.
