This hard cover book comes from the clinical guide series and is written by senior staff and specialists with a plethora of letters suffixing their names from King's College London Dental Institute, as well as a private periodontal practitioner employed by Periodontics UK. The book brilliantly summarizes the aetiology, classification and treatment of both the classic periodontal diseases and also the acute or ineffective forms whilst also - in the chapter entitled 'Effective communication with patients to improve motivation' - giving significant weight to the communication of this pathology to the patient with empathy and without the use of jargon. Throughout there are clear, excellently labelled photographs including those demonstrating the use of various periodontal scaling instruments, flow charts, tables and radiographs, as well as example proformas for anatomical periodontal charting, disease information in basic and 'higher level' terms and bleeding on probing charts
