This book was a lifesaver for me. The author's practical knowledge of working in a dental operatory gives her the unique ability to tailor advice for dentists and dental staff. This will add years to my practice!

Should be a required textbook for all entering the field, it is not all about the patient, the provider needs to learn self care !

I attended one of Ms. Valachi's seminars several years ago. This book should be required reading in all dental schools and once a year for all practitioners! Musculoskeletal imbalances are rampant in our profession, and chronic pain seems to be as well. This is the essential information to combat those issues.

I found the additional material in the book to be helpful in fully understanding the content of her live C.E. courses.
She obviously has a good depth of knowledge in her field. I think the book is slightly overpriced but valuable.

Dentistry and Pain are related by people in a way that they would rarely expect- pain to the dentist. "Practice Dentistry Pain-Free: Evidence-Based Strategies to Prevent Pain and Extend Your Career" focuses on ergonomics for the Dentist, little known to non-dental professionals. In order to practice, a dentist is usually in an uncomfortable position, for potentially hours at a time. With tips on making one's dental practice more comfortable for oneself so that one's body isn't worn out before the Dentist's mind, "Practice Dentistry Pain-Free" is a must for any dental professional who cares about more than their patient's teeth.
