This book reviews and describes the uses for lasers in oral and maxillofacial surgery and dentistry. Purpose: The main purpose is to serve as an instructional guide and reference for the practitioner using laser surgery. Audience: The primary audience for this text is practicing oral and maxillofacial surgeons or plastic surgeons using laser surgery in the oral cavity. Features: The best features of this text are the color photos and illustrations. The book lacks adequate references. Assessment: This is a good supplemental book for practitioners using lasers in the oral cavity, but I do not feel it is good primary text for beginners.
