“It is a book all dental students and dental practitioners will appreciate for its chairside value. It covers information on epidemiology, physiology, pathophysiology, laboratory test evaluation, pharmacology, and dental alerts, as well as possible deviations in the use of anesthetics, analgesics, and antibiotics.” (Journal of the Massachusetts Dental Society, April 2009)

Dental Medicine Essential, November 24, 2010

This book was written by our professor at Tufts and is very comprehensive while being easy to read and well organized. The book is not a complete medical guide but it covers everything that a dentist will need to know.
