Book Reviews
“Another handy, plastic-covered pocketbook from Churchill Livingstone, this is primarily – but not exclusively – aimed at dental students. It is a comprehensive book and just as useful for more-recently qualified dentists and can be used as a revision text for experienced dentists.¿

"This is a well illustrated, invaluable guide for dental students and practitioners who are in the early stages of their career."
