There are lots of books for oral sugery but this one is really good for the general dentist as it covers procedures that can be done in private practice. I particularly like the emergencies section for its simplicity and methodical approach. A real good book.

I would recommend this book to all dental undergraduates, and those in related fields, eg oral surgery dental nurses, medical students etc ... Read more
