American Dental Hygienists' Association, 1999

Insightful & Inspiring
The author, Amanda Kipp, really brings to life the potential threats that the electronic society brings to the Internet-driven consumer world. This article is just as pertinent today as in 1999. Kudos to Kipp, and I'll continue reading her work!

Prentice Hall, 2006

First modern educational tool in dental health for children.
This is the first book of its kind. It focuses on the dental education of children. It is a complete lesson planner that can be fully integrated in the classroom along with school's other subjects. If children can learn to take care of their teeth the proper way, they can save themselves and their parents a lot of trouble down the line. What impressed me most about the book was how much ...

Lea & Febiger, 1988

service rating
This book is a present for my wife, hence I can not truly rate it for it's content. It's content means nothing to me! I have had to insert a star rating for the book in order to post the review for the service provided. It's condition was superb. Tracking a copy down was a problem, it is out of print in the UK. Once this copy was found we were very happy with the price and also to wait the ...

W.B. Saunders Company, 1998

Finally a text on nutrition for dental hygienists.
I just got my copy and I am reading through it. The chapters on caries and periodontal disease are very current. I will be able to add these not only to my CE courses but to my research studies in oral biology. Thank you for this timely textbook.

Chicken Soup for the Dental Soul (Heartwarming, funny and inspiring stories for dental patients, dentists, ...

Health Communications, Inc., 1999

This Dentist's Heart Was Warmed
"Chicken Soup for the Dental Soul" is a compilation of lighthearted, humorous, sometimes sad, short stories from dentists, dental hygienists and assistants and staff. Teeth are important but individuals don't realize how important until problems arise, teeth are lost, or the person is in great pain with a toothache. Getting to the dentist does not have to be all that bad. In fact, it can be ...

Applied Pharmacology for the Dental Hygienist

Barbara S. Requa-Clark, Sam V. Holroyd

C.V. Mosby, 1994

Well-Structured Text for the Dental Hygienist
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 ...

Clinical Practice of the Dental Hygienist

7 reviews

Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2004

Dr. Wilkins is amazing!
I attended a lecture given by Dr. Wilkins and had my 8th edition text autographed. She is a vivacious, wonderful woman and gave me the refresher I needed. The book is a wonderful part of what it means to be a dental hygienist. To see so many different editions (and so many matching gel pens) carried into the lecture hall was amazing. Truly a book treasured by the prudent dental hygienist.

American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists, 1981

Useful but very specific
The book is good and useful but it is very specific as a result of the event presented at that time. It would be more interesting if the content could be applied in more actual fields of study.

Radiographic Interpretation for the Dental Hygienist

1 review
Joen Iannucci, Laura Jansen Lind

Saunders, 1993

Still the best for study and review.
This textbook is a great review for the practitioner and study aide for the student. The oral pathology section shows in great detail the descriptions to look for in any radiograph. But I never discount the section on normal landmarks since many of my student and myself always need to review these items to make sure we do a complete professional service for our dental patients. When redoing ...

Prentice Hall, 2001

Great for boards...and classes
I bought this book thinking I would use it to study for the boards...I was wrong. Since purchasing this book I have used it to study for tests in classes I am taking now, plus I have the added benefit of studying for the boards at the same time. I would recommend this book to anyone who feels stressed about studying for classes now as well as their boards!

Periodontology for the Dental Hygienist

1 review
Dorothy A. Perry, Phyllis L. Beemsterboer, ...

Saunders, 2001

Comprehensive text for dental hygienists on periodontology!
In the past, editors watered down their texts for dentists and served them to dental hygienists. This textbook has always considered the dental hygienist a central focus in the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal disease. I have used this text as a reference for my CE courses and studies, but also for my patients in order to understand grafts, implants and other aspects of treatment that ...

Kaplan National Dental Hygienist Licensure Exam (Kaplan Dental Hygienist Licensure Exam)

Kaplan Publishing, 2007

Great tips on taking the boards!
True this book does have inaccuracies, but I also found these in the much touted Dental Hygiene Study Decks. It may be impossible to find any non-fiction book without some inaccuracies, textbooks included! I've heard several questions are thrown out each year from the board exam because of inaccuracies. The information is presented thoroughly and very clearly, with key points of a paragraph ...
