Good basic and review text by Robert L. Brunker

4 Stars

This work is an excellent textbook or review source for tooth morphology, dental histology and embryology. The text is more geared for the education of hygienists than for dentists. The format is clear, to the point, yet it is quite comprehensive for its length. The sidebar clinical examples for the application of the accompanying topic are excellent and helps see the value of the topics covered. I have elected to use it as a text for a dental morphology course in hygiene school. Robert L Brunker, DDS
