The cornerstone text of almost every dental hygienist's library is now in its thoroughly updated Tenth Edition. Written in a straightforward, concise outline format, this text equips students and practitioners with the clinical and educational skills needed for successful practice. Features includes full-color artwork and photographs, case-based exercises, procedure boxes, and ethics boxes. The Tenth Edition presents the latest technical advances and research findings and includes a new chapter on teeth whitening, plus new sections on cultural competence, detailed home visit, street drugs, and indices for early childhood caries and root caries. A bound-in CD-ROM includes clinical video clips, an audio pronunciation glossary, and board case style questions with rationales.
