Editorial Reviews

Review

"The book has a number of client handouts, which will aid a practice if they are starting off in dentistry. A major strength of this book is that it has a comprehensive glossary and it is adequately indexed. The book is well written and in a format which allows easily access to a particular topic, which has enough technical information to diagnosis and understand the disease or problem, as well as exception pictures of most diseases and conditions known in dentistry. This is a book I would recommend and should be in the library of all veterinary practices. Even if you only see a handful of dentistry cases, this book will aid your diagnosis, improve your treatment and encourage that special interest in veterinary dentistry."  Australian Veterinary Journal

This review is from: Blackwell's Five-Minute Veterinary Consult Clinical Companion Small Animal Dentistry (Paperback)

I bought this book when starting at a practice that does alot of dentals hoping for more info on nerve blocks, anatomy and techniques. Unfortunately, not much info on anatomy or blocks but great info on instruments, conditions and techniques, particularly radiographs. Will be useful if we get dental radiograph equipment in the future but meanwhile, I will need an alternate information source.
