Reviewer: Anand

On first impression, this book seems a little lightweight. However having
read the book, I discovered there was very good reason for this. Some books
tend to over complicate and spend too much time on the simple issues, that
should be considered basic knowledge. This book is simple and straight to
the point. There is very little unnecessary material, whilst the rest is
concise and easy to understand.
It covers a wide range of subjects from Bleaching (of vital and non vital
teeth), to partial denture design to crowns and bridges. One of the
highlights of the book is the chapter on Failed Crown and Bridges, a subject
not covered as well in other dental books. Individual chapters on Replacing
Canines, and Upper Incisors were also useful.
The text is well accompanied by a variety of illustrations, all relevant to
what is being discussed. At the end of each chapter is a short and useful
summary of the learning objectives.
Overall I found the book to be an outstanding source of information, which
was simple to understand and easy to find what you were looking for. I would
strongly recommend this book for students as it is an excellent companion to
your studies. |
