 Poorly written..., February 23, 2014

I cannot stand this book when it comes to using it for a text book. I run a dental assisting school, that we purchased from a doctor out of California, and I could not imagine why this book was his suggested text. I much prefer "The Essentials of Dental Assisting", by Debbie S. Robinson CDA MS, and Doni L. Bird CDA RDH MA, as I learned on.

Dental Assistant, January 08, 2001

This book is very good. After being a chairside dental assistant for twenty years and on the job training, this is excellent for training someone in from scratch (which I am about to do). It is very detailed in some areas that an assistant does not necessarily use, but answers the mental questions about the Doctors procedures that one might never ask. It also teaches the basics and the in depth information that one would learn and want to refer back to that evening to review. It is a great book to have "before" you begin the job, so once you begin, you can understand the what and the why of the procedure. You will need to practice the hands on techniques that the book illistrates, and you will be on a roll!
