Product Description

Review

"The book makes a logical, straightforward read, it is easy to assimilate and contains shaded boxes to highlight concise summaries of text. It is recommended by tutors in Schools of Dental Hygiene and dental hygienists returning to work after a career break would find it a good way to fill in gaps in their knowledge."The GDP, September 1999
a favourite with student dental hygienists worldwide. This is unsurprising, considering the esteem in which the three authors are held within the profession. The new edition still covers all the basics... It has kept abreast of the latest advances, however, especially those in the fields of oral health promotion and preventative care, provided as part of a team. The book also discusses the General Dental Council's proposals regarding Professions Complementary to Dentistry (PCDs), and the impact these will have on future hygienists... the layout has been changed throughout and the chapters have become easier to read and also to refer to.
"The Probe, November 1999
book has already proved very popular with student dental hygienists not only in UK schools of dental hygiene but in many training establishments throughout the world. In its 23 chapters it covers much of the theory needed for most training programmes.
In this fourth edition the authors have updated the contents to take into account the extended length of the hygiene training course plus many of the advances that have occurred in dentistry. As a hygienist of some 20 years' experience I am already familiar with the previous editions of this book and found the new format to be much more reader friendly.
The page size has increased and I particularly like the use of highlighted areas including the summaries of the various subjects. A new chapter has been added on the aetiology and management of dental sensitivity in response to many reader requests for more information on this topic."Dental Practice, Vol 37, No. 21, November 1999
Handbook for Dental

Product Description

"A Handbook for Dental Hygienists" is well established as an essential text for student hygienists. For this new edition, three eminent authors in this area of dental practice bring their lifetime experiences of training dental hygienists to the book. The size and layout of the book have changed, making it more reader-friendly and ensuring that the information on the recent advances in the field is readily accessible to the reader. As with previous editions, all aspects of dental hygienist training are presented in a logical progression to provide a comprehensive text, reflecting current clinical practice.

Format:Paperback
As a first year student I have found this book most helpful covering every aspect you need to know in the ever changing field of dental hygiene. The diagrams and pitures (although not colour) aided the text during difficult concepts. Although brief in some areas, it does give pointers for further study.
