This short book contains the wisdom of 43 years of practicing dentistry in the Navy, in private practice, and in today's world of corporate dentistry. It covers the basic information necessary for an individual to understand the growth and development of their teeth and supporting structures, the care required to keep them in good health, and the means to evaluate a professional qualified to help treat and maintain the mouth in optimal health.It touches briefly on the training required to become a dentist, the selection of an appropriate dental office in which to seek treatment, and the types of treatment necessary to maintain the marvelous machine known as "the mouth" in good working order. Types of "dental insurance" are discussed and the pros and limitations of each type mentioned. Anyone who is interested in keeping his or her teeth in good working order for a lifetime of use will find nuggets of good basic knowledge here which will help them accomplish that goal. There is now a workbook to accompany this text! It is designed to help the reader find a dentist in a new location, but may also be used to evaluate an existing dentist/patient relationship.
