Please don't waste your money on this book. You won't get anything useful out of it except how to ask a patient to open or close their mouth. Most of the phrases taught here will be useless in a real dental office visit, and for some reason they added menus and information about fiestas as page fillers. It's really my fault for buying a book on dental spanish that wasn't even written by dental professionals. What we really need is a book on how to explain fillings, crowns and dentures and other treatment options to patients, and everything else that is really discussed during an office visit. This certainly isn't that book.

The CD with this book has one speaker that sounds exactly like Peggy Hill (King of the Hill). A male, probably native speaker, speaks so fast you would have to be pretty fluent to repeat what he says. I agree with the other reviewer: save your money.
