Summary:
Emphasizing evidence-based research and clinical compentencies, this comprehensive resource provides coverage of the dental hygienist's roles and responsibilities in today's practice. It offers a clear approach to science and theory, a step-by-step guide to core dental hygiene procedures, and realistic scenarios to help with the development of skills in decision making.
