Great Quick Reference for all !!!!,September 28, 2001

Im a 1st year resident at Seton Hall University OMFS. I highly recommend this book for all residents. It has been a very helpful reference for all the questions that are thrown at me. Make sure you get this book before you drop tons of money on all the other worthless texts.

Great Quick Reference for all !!!!!,September 28, 2001

I am a first year resident at Seton Hall University OMFS and use this book religously.
It is a great quick reference to questions that are thrown at me all the time. I highly recommend
this as the first text to buy when you start your residency. Don’t run out and buy the expensive books yet. Use this reference until you get a feel for what texts you want to purchase!
