Editorial Review:

Is it ever appropriate to diagnose and treat oral and dental problems without knowing the full extent of the problem? With more than 50% of anatomical structures and associated pathologies located below the gingivae and unseen to the eye, that's the reality without the use of high-quality, accurately interpreted radiographs. Atlas of Dental Radiography in Dogs and Cats presents hundreds of actual radiographic images, which are clearly labeled to facilitate accurate identification of normal and abnormal features. This valuable new atlas shows you exactly how to correlate common dental conditions with radiographic signs. Radiographs are also compared side by side with actual anatomical photographs to confirm surface landmarks visible on the radiographs. Correct positioning techniques for producing diagnostic radiographs as well as helpful tips and pitfalls when obtaining quality radiographs are logically presented. This approach helps you produce consistently high-quality radiographs, sharpen your interpretive skills, and confidently treat a wide range of dental problems.

• Presents the most logical and useful approach to dental and oral radiography, using actual anatomical photographs for accurate clinical correlation
• Depicts original and color-labeled radiographs side-by-side for accurate identification of normal and abnormal structures
• Helps both veterinarians and technicians take the best possible radiographs, interpret them accurately, make sound treatment decisions, and monitor results
• Provides clear, technical guidance for taking quality radiographs and identifying artefacts and results of improper imaging technique and film development
• Presents clear pictorial instructions - from 2 angles - for correct positioning of the X-ray beam and intraoral films
• Offers new opportunities for expanded professional services and revenues in your practice
• Provides proof of compliance with standards of care for medical record documentation, helping you legally protect yourself, your staff, and your practice

Veterinary Dentistry for the Small Animal Technician 4 out of 5 stars.
6 of 6 people found this review helpful.

For the average technician in a small animal practice, I think this book is informative and useful. It's a very complete book regarding small animal dentistry and everything involved, from ananatomy to anesthesia to abnormalities. It's a great book to be used as a textbook in a technician program. I recommend this book for both the new technician just starting out or for the experienced technician looking for a refresher or a review book.

Very Educational For the Tech 5 out of 5 stars.

This volume is very informative for the techs who perform not only routine prophylaxis procedures on cats and dogs but also simple restorative procedures...a boon to our practice!

Small Animal Dentistry (Cats/Dogs) 5 out of 5 stars.

This is the Bible of dental books on small animal dentistry. Even though it is in black and white, there are pictures and just about every topic is covered from scaling teeth to dental surgery. Pictures of scalers, and polishers, types of drugs used and step-by-step procedures will be useful for beginners to experts. May I eat my words if this book does not prove to be worth its weight in gold!

Editorial Review:

Veterinary Dentistry covers all aspects of dentistry with emphasis on procedures and the technician's role. Progressing from simple to complex topics, the book presents dental procedures first, with chapters on oral examinations, instruments, safety, and anesthesia, then progresses to procedures such as endodontics. The book concludes with two interesting chapters on marketing veterinary dentistry and commonly asked client questions, replete with acceptable technician responses.
