Dental update by Stephen J. Arthur (Sylvania, OH USA) 5 Stars
October 22, 2009
This is a very thorough book for all clinicians. It explains the theory of anesthetic action, covers the various types of anesthetics - and their various formulations. It describes various anesthetic techniques in excellent detail. The DVD is a great addition, to be able to see the techniques and anatomical landmarks. additionally, I found several new techniques that I have had good success with. I recommend this book for the student, new clinician, as well as a valuable review for experienced clinicians

The best handbook of modern dental local anesthesia I have read. A couple years ago - the former edition - became as a basic curriculum for the teachbook written by myself for students and dentists in Czech Republic - (it was sold out during few months). Many congratulations to author Mr. Malamed! V. Scigel,MD,PhD
