This drug reference is layed out in a simple easy to use pattern. Every office should acquire this book. We just check the index, get the page number, flip to the appropiate page and wham! everything we need is right there. I especially like how the dental considerations are listed seperately. And it's a lot easier to manage than the huge PDR. It makes life much easier! ... Read more

VIVID FULL COLOR PLATES OF EVERY INJECTION
I purchased this book in 1982 as a student of the art of Dental Anaesthesia and although it was not on the list of Dental Anaesthesia books required, I found it the best in providing a means to visualize where the target areas are for dental anaesthesia. A monumental task, considering all injections are done "blind."

The book includes background information about the concept of pain, pharmacology, psychology of pain and head and neck anatomy. Of all the books I have on Dental Anaesthesia, this one remains my favorite and most used reference source. The full color illistrations, often several on all but a few of the 200 pages, by Poul Buckhoj disect the target area showing the muscles, bone, nerves, and blood vessles of all the dental injections except the Akinosi-Vazirani mandibular block.

The accompanying text is clear, concise, and looses nothing in the translation. If you want the best illistrated text for use in learing dental anaesthesia, this work by Evers and Haegerstam, et. al., is what you shoud have on the top of your shopping list. It is very sad this book is no longer in print. ... Read more
