Full Description
Dental students are required to treat patients from an early stage of their training, and therefore have to assimilate a large amount of information in a relatively short time. In addition, clinical work will often involve different specialities on successive days. This handbook is designed to provide a readily accessible source of information, not only for students but also for vocational and hospital trainees. Particular emphasis is placed on recent techniques and developments. The whole of clinical dentistry is covered, plus chapters on practice management, law and ethics, medicine relevant to dentistry and useful information and addresses. The text is in a concise page and subject format, with an adjacent blank page for notes.
