5.0 out of 5 stars.  One of the Best Dental Assisting Textbooks there is!, November 30, -0001
By Elaine Kehr
I am the Owner/ Director of a small Dental Assisting School and we USE this as our textbook.

It is well organized, and easy to use. Throughout the book, important points are bulleted and highlighted in prominent areas for quick reference. Everything a new dental assistant ( or dental assistant who needs to refresh) would need or enjoy is available in this book.

My suggestion for self-study is to purchase the workbook ask well. In this manner you will be able to test your knowledge.

5.0 out of 5 stars.  Great Study Guide!, November 30, -0001
By Dirk Foster
I purchased this book for my son who is in Dental Assistant Training and hopes one day to become a dentist. He had put hours into studying for an upcoming exam and thought he was ready until I gave him this book. After reviewing the appropriate sections for his test, he remarked to me how much more confident he was about taking the test and he ended up scoring very high.

5.0 out of 5 stars.  Essentials of Dental Assisting, November 30, -0001
By Christine A. Brady
I find this book excellent for anyone starting in the field of dental assistant or as a review book for someone who is already an assistant. I am just learning and borrowed the book and had to buy it. It covers everything in detail from anatomy,infection control,patient care, radiography, all forms of denistry procedures needed and much more. There are exercises and flash cards and 623 pages full of information. A GREAT BOOK. Its a must for any dental assistant. There are alot of pictures, layouts and diagrams. I enjoy every minute of it.

By MarieG
Great book for learning or review. Covers just about everything. Great photos and explanations. I would definitely recommend this book for beginning dental assistants, or those who just want to brush-up and/or familiarize themselves with all areas of dentistry. Also great for certification prep.
