When the school told me the book my dentist had given me was way too outdated for the course, I had to move fast and get something newer. I got in in just a few days. Way before the estimated delivery date which gave me extra study time. I chose the book and DVD combo to help me absorb it all quicker. I love, love it!! The course is in 2 weeks and I feel prepared enough to pass the pre-test.

Local anesthesia malamed, August 29, 2012

I'm very familiar with Dr. Stanley Malamed's Local Anesthesia handbook since I was a student in USC School of Dentistry where Dr. Malamed taught and trained me in Local Anesthesia. Time and again afetr practicing for 25 years I go back to this book for reference. The new edition is again a wonderful and comprehensive textbook that every dentist and dental student should have in their library. Dr. Malamed has not left anything unexplained clearly in the science of local anesthesia. Most of all the accompanying DVD ia a fantastic reference that will refine any clinician's skills.
