I purchased this hardback book in 1982 as a student of the art of Dental Anaesthesia and although it was not on the list of Dental Anaesthesia books required, I found it the best in providing a means to visualize where the target areas are for dental anaesthesia. A monumental task, considering all injections are done "blind."
The book includes background information about the concept of pain, pharmacology, psychology of pain and head and neck anatomy. Of all the books I have on Dental Anaesthesia, this one remains my favorite and most used reference source. The full color illustrations, often several on all but a few of the 200 pages, by Poul Buckhoj depict the target area showing the muscles, bone, nerves, and blood vessels of all the dental injections except the Akinosi-Vazirani mandibular block.
The accompanying text is clear, concise, and nothing is lost in the translation. If you want the best illustrated text for use in leaning dental anaesthesia, this work by Evers and Haegerstam, et. al., is what you should have on the top of your shopping list. It is very sad this book is no longer in print. In this review I have added a few pages of the hardback book I still have.
As a footnote: there is an Amazon listing where it appears I have posted my original review of the Evers and Haegerstam book which has been totally corrupted by Amazon and will most likely see you purchasing a book you don't even want. It is posted under the same title as this book but does not turn up for a search for this title which leads to greater credence of a corrupt listing. This review without the footnote is also seen with that other book.
Amazon get your act together and fix this!

A Must Have Resource, January 16, 2009

This book was given to us in our first year of dental school and I still reference it today, 15 years later. What is unique about this book is that it clearly illustrates, through shaded areas, where you may expect anesthesia to not only travel to, but how intense you may expect it to be. Not that giving local anesthesia is simple, but this book MAKES it simple through clear explanations. Anatomical drawings of nerves relative to bony landmarks as well as needle positioning are incorporated within one illustration at a time throughout the book and everything is tied up nicely with a "complication" section at the back of the book. In addition, the chemistry of locals as well as potential side effects are explained in the first chapters for beginners. One of my hygienists recently became certified to give local anesthesia in Massachusetts and found this book to be EXTREMELY useful.
