This little book offers a concise overview of the dental assisting career. I love the pictures wh9ich show what has been describes. As well, the tables and other colored blocks of subject outlines are very helpful in drawing one's attention and putting forth information in an eye-catching manner. I use these in my very small dental assisting school at National School of Dental Assisting, Stockton
