Synopsis

The third edition of this comprehensive text is supplemented by over 350 high-quality colour illustrations ensuring that Paediatric Dentistry is an essential textbook for both theoretical knowledge and the practice of clinical paediatric dentistry. This user-friendly, accessible new edition
includes contributions from a number of new dental schools and practitioners using an approach which reflects modern trends within the specialty. Extensive use of bullet lists, key learning points, advice on further reading as well as space for the reader to make notes ensures that key information
can be quickly absorbed.

The inclusion of two new editors and several new contributors ensures that the third edition has been thoroughly revised and updated. The restorative section has been remodelled. There are now separate chapters on the operative care of the primary and permanent dentitions and coverage of
endodontics has now been incorporated into these chapters. There is increased coverage of risk assessment and treatment planning; and recent developments in caries diagnosis and fluoride delivery systems are included.

The new edition will continue to be an invaluable text for every undergraduate dental student and represents an ideal reference point for further in-depth reading for the specialist practitioner.

Review:

From reviews of the previous edition:

`This is an excellent book, which I would thoroughly recommend not only for the newly emerging specialists in paediatric dentistry, but for all clinicians that see and treat children. It is a comprehensive book covering all aspects of paediatric dentistry. This latest edition addresses the
previous omissions. I find it an easy to read book, which makes it very useful for quick reference in the surgery. I suggest it is well worth the money and should be on everyone's bookshelf.'
Dental Update

`In a nutshell, it is a textbook that can be wholeheartedly recommended for the bookshelf of anyone interested in paediatric dentistry.'
Dental Practice

`The book is principally aimed at the undergraduate student and, in this light, both in content and pricing fulfils its role well... I would recommend it to anyone wanting an overview of the subject.'
European Journal of Orthodontics

`Overall, this is an excellent text for anyone who treats children and it should be on your bookshelves... I would thoroughly recommend it.'
