Dental Hygiene Student
Customer Rating:
The book contains alot of information and has great pictures to help you get an idea of what its talking about. Just starting the Dental Hygiene Program and taking Dental Anatomy this book really helped to clarify some things the professor sucked at explaining.
Plus there are study cards in the back of the book. Which can be really helpful.
Excellent for Tooth Morpho, but Terrible in Everything Else.
Customer Rating:
As a dental student, this book is good. It covers everything from dental embryology, dental anatomy, head and neck anatomy, dental anomalies, and it specifically caters to the dental student.
But with this in mind. I would only use this book for Tooth Morphology. For Tooth Identification, it's well done, even includes flash cards. But for everything else,(head neck, embryo, histo) not a very good book. You'll need to refer out to other sources. The only reason why every dental student buys this book is because, "IT'S THE ONLY ONE OUT THERE!" Which sucks.
It's a difficult read. When I say, "difficult" (I don't mean the subject matter), but by way the book explains things. I heard people complaining about Wheeler's. Brand's is alittle better but still very unorganized. They try to describe the anatomy simply in words. They don't include many pictures, and the ones they do have are poor.
But like I said you'll probably have no choice but to buy.
