About this title

Review

"Resplendent with over 250 very clear colour photographs, it serves graphically to demonstrate an array of oral conditions of which dentists should be aware..The book is suitable for dental students and dentists just starting out in their careers but it will be useful to those undertaking post-graduate exams, too.?
