~ Neil S. Norton PhD (Author)

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This book has to be recommended for all those wishing to establish the appropriate level of knowledge for the contemporary practice of dentistry and for those wishing to refresh their knowledge. No dental library should be without this book, let alone a dental practice."
-British Dental Journal 202, 50-51 (2007)


"This is an excellent resource for dental students. Since students are typically required to purchase an anatomy atlas, this seems like a good all-around resource. It is packed with useful information, and has excellent corresponding images. The clinical correlations help with the mastery of complex material, and will likely be a useful resource for many years following graduation. I highly recommend it, and will be steering my dental students toward it." -- Doody's Book Review Service

5.0 out of 5 stars Must Have, May 4, 2007

By	Frank E. Huff Jr. (Augusta, GA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is a must have for dental students!! Along with diagrams, it contains tables, and charts that explain origin and insertion of muscles and their innervation. The big edition of Netter does not supply the detail of information that is in this book. I Could not have survived 1st year dental school anatomy course without it!! Also gives instructions on nerve block anesthesia.

5.0 out of 5 stars I wish I could give it ten stars!!!, April 1, 2008

By	B. A. Feil (Denver, CO United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Unbelievable book! I have never been engrossed so deeply into learning something so fascinating. The way he puts it all together just makes it extremely easy to become proficient with head and neck anatomy. This should be in every dentist's personal library and great for studying for boards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great condensed book for anatomy, March 10, 2007

By	Ben R. Johnson "dmdstudent.com" (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is easily one of the best pocket books for anatomy for dental stuents you will ever get your hands on. There are those netter flashcards which are good and small, but they don't have nearly the amount of information that this book has. Kudos to Norton for putting this together along with new illustrations from other artists, and this book also includes anesthesia and good detailed drawings on the nerve blocks in the mouth. Lots of tables and functions, etc.

I liked to carry this book around with me while I was doing random errands, like standing in line at the bank or when I was just waiting around before class, etc. It is a great reference.

Also includes some great clinical cases which as a dentist you will likely encounter at some time in your practice.
