Having been a qualified dental nurse for many years I was quite pleased to see another text book on the market. However I was highly disapointed when I saw the quality of the diagrams and pictures included. Although It was great to see more pictures and diagrams included in a text book it was a great shame they were not up to standard. Some diagrams especially the fixed-fixed bridge was not clear and I feel may be a bit confusing for someone, who has little experience, to make out. Also some of the photographs are blurred and do not show the instruments clearly enough to be of use when trying to identify them. On a positive note the grey boxes, with the description of the nurses role in specific preocedures are particularly good & useful in constructing essays.
