4.0 out of 5 stars Well-Structured Text for the Dental Hygienist, April 26, 2003

By A Customer

This text does an excellent job of summarizing and organizing the drugs that dental health care workers will prescribe as well as the common groups of medications that patients will be taking that will require modification of the dental treatment or possible interaction between these two groups. Although there are some errors in the text, it is very easy to read and is literally packed with good information (in other words - throw away the highlighter. There's really not much filler because health topics are really well-summarized). I enjoyed reading this text and recommend it to any dental hygiene student or even dental student wishing to learn as much as possible in the minimum number of pages / hours necessary.
