Images are fundamental in the day-to-day practice of dentistry. They serve as documentation of dental procedures and as forensic evidence, and they play an essential role in dentist-patient communication, providing the basis for patients’ expectations for treatment. However, many dentists, daunted by modern photographic technology, do not realize the full potential of imagery in their practices. This book, written by an experienced dentist and leader of numerous photographic seminars, offers practical insights, instructions, and tips that will enable any dental practitioner to achieve excellence in dental photography. In more than 500 photos, the book provides examples of high-quality results and the steps needed to achieve them. Covered topics include conventional and digital photography; techniques for various forms of clinical photography; production of slide series; and archiving.

 About Mastering digital dental photography, November 23, 2009

Good book, very ordered, and complete.
Nevertheless, 3 years is many, many time in this times. Already it is a little old.
To much PS and PPP, (more than 100 pages!) and very old versions to. (To day)

Worth its weight, March 01, 2007
By Steven L. Nelson (Minneapolis, MN)

This is a comprehensive well written book with generous clear illustrations. The book covers equipment to processing to presentation. There is a very good section on commercially available equipment from point-and-shoot to DSLR's. Equipment changes quickly but with the information in this book you should be able to acquire the right equipment and and take great images for years to come. Whether you are taking digital images for documentation, publication or patient presentations, this book covers it all.
Added: I've had this book for a year now and I'm still learning new stuff from it. Some of the equipment profiles are now a bit dated but the basics are rock solid. I'm still glad I bought it.
