Ridiculous, February 20, 2014
By Kathleen E Tyler

The information in this book is only if you are a complete moron. There are instructions on how to use a stamp. If you are a complete beginner at working with people or in a dental office this might be ok, but there are much better books out there. Running a high-performance dental practice is a very deceiving title….it should be how to do the basics in a dental office, plus information for the completely clueless.

The only reason I gave it one start is because I can’t rate it any lower.
