Reviews / Votes
Georgia Perimeter College -- While I don't teach the course associated with the assessment tutorials, I received a copy and got so excited about it that I had everyone else sent a copy and it was adopted for this Fall 07 course. SUNY, Canton -- I can't wait to use this book when teaching the extra and intra oral examination and gingival evaluation next fall! Fayetteville Tech Community College -- Jill knows how to put a text together.More details
