Glossary/Appendix
"The author's stated goal for this book was to provide to general
practitioners all the information required to be able to practise
good dentistry. She has accomplished her goal exceptionally well.
The book covers many topics of great value to a general practice
veterinarian without any attempt to teach advanced procedures that
could quickly get a non-specialist into trouble...It is a
relatively easy read. The layout is logical, the illustrations are
of very good quality, and the text is enhanced by over 100
excellent quality color photos and radiographs...Overall, the
information presented is very accurate and current...This book is
highly recommended (and at US $67.95, is good value) for general
practitioners seeking to improve their knowledge of veterinary
dentistry and it has several topics of interest even for some
readers that are more advanced in their training." Journal of
Veterinary Dentistry
"If you had the first edition of this very practical dentistry
guide, no doubt you will welcome the new one. Packed with pictures,
drawings, practical advice, step by step procedures and references,
this book provides all that the general practitioner needs to know
to deal confidently with most dental procedures. The numerous
illustrations will also be very useful in explaining your work to
the owner."
Royal Canin - Vets Today, December 2013
"While veterinary dentistry is not a rapidly changing field, there
are several major updates to be found in this edition. The advent
of digital radiography has brought about a completely revised and
updated chapter with clear instructions for even the most novice
dental radiographer. There are beautiful photographs of hand pieces
and dental burrs, and these would have been enhanced by the
identification of each and an explanation of which burr to use for
which indication. On the whole, this little book provides an
up-to-date complete reference guide for vets in general practice
and should be part of every practice's library."
Veterinary Record, January 2014
"This book covers most aspects of veterinary dentistry in companion
animals extremely well and as such would be an excellent book for
general practitioners and veterinary students wishing to increase
their knowledge and skills in veterinary dentistry. It would
deserve a place in any companion animal practice library."Reviewed
