Reviews of
Dental Histo, Embryo, Anatomy Textbook


The outstanding features of this book are the over 700 color photographs and illustrations... Each chapter contains numerous boxes of information and tables that describe in more detail specific dental conditions... The information in these boxes not only provides interesting facts for the reader, but important relevant information that clarifies essential concepts... The dental anatomy unit is also a highlight of the text...The web-site is beneficial to both the instructor and student. Use of this technology is designed to enhance the presentation of material and interaction with students... The workbook is highly recommended for students, featuring case studies and review exercises. Journal of Dental Hygiene

Comprehensive review ... provides the reader with an applied approach to the subject, something very important for understanding the significance of different structures... Book also would serve as a valuable reference in preparation for standardized examinations at all levels of dentistry. See entire review Journal of the American Dental Association

Complete understanding of the subject matter. The most unique characteristic of this book, however, consists of clinical applications on various topics relevant to oral health care. It would also make a valuable resource in a dental office and could easily be used for patient education or as a reference because of its outstanding illustrations.
Journal of Dental Hygiene

A great book for anyone interested in tooth morphology.

This is a very well illustrated book, which takes you step-by-step through the basics of tooth morphology. It takes you through the individual teeth, both deciduous and permanent dentitions, pointing out differences between the separate teeth and also the variations from the left and right sides of the mouth. These sections are easy to follow and are summarized in bullet-point form at the end of each tooth. The book then goes on to endodontic anatomy, describing the root structure of each tooth in detail, along with details of formation and eruption dates for each. This is a detailed, yet easy to understand dental morphology title, one which I have found extremely useful so far as a dental student, and one that I am certain I will put to good use again in the not too distant future.

This unique publication ... is an accurate and easily readable anatomy text for all health practitioners. Journal of Craniomandibular Practice

Students of anatomy should welcome a presentation different from the traditional. American Journal of Orthodontics

Very good illustrations and straightforward text. Has a clinically-relevant emphasis (including chapters on dental anesthesia and the spread of dental infection). Reading List for 1st Year Undergraduates, Leeds Dental Institute, Leeds University, UK.


 


It is the best illustrated book of the head and neck.  This has been an excellent book to clear your all doubts of the anatomy of the head and neck with the best figures I have ever seen and excellent descriptions. This book let u do all the anatomy within very short period of time just by looking at the figures. I find this book extremely useful in my studies and I want u all to know that this book is really really helpful

Great book for boards


This book is perfect for head and neck anatomy courses and for the Dental National Boards Part  I. The pictures are very clear, the complex anatomy is laid out methodically and logically.  I've used other general anatomy books, but they fall short when it comes to head and neck.  This book does not, and even includes clinical pearls for the future and current dental professional.


Great!


This book is very good! Their are so many diagrams and great information. It is very easy to follow along with to learn the material.


Brilliant Book.


I thought this was a fantastic book on head and neck anatomy. It covers every aspect including: surface anatomy, osteology, TMJ, vascular system, lymphatics etc.  The clarity of the pictures are fantastic. There are a good size and everything is in color so it is easier to understand. The labels are very clear. As a dental student I found that this has helped me greatly and would recommend it highly.



Good textbook for Dental Hygienist/Hygiene Student

This book is descriptive and shows several pictures demonstrating the areas a hygienist is required to know. I would definitely recommend this textbook to hygiene students.
