Both dental assistant and dental hygiene students will benefit from the thorough presentation of anatomy and the strong review of tooth morphology. To aid in the learning process, the text includes numerous upgraded illustrations to show the information, not just present students with a dry listing of detail. Review questions at the end of each chapter enable students to review concepts and prepare for class exams. One of the hallmarks of the text is the clear, concise presentation in a meaningful style to engage students and enable them to retain the content for subsequent courses.
