Review:
A definite keeper, this is a textbook I will refer to whenever I have a challenging shade to match. It is easy to read and understand, very clearly presented and lavishly photographed. By understanding the science and art behind shade selection, one can only become a better practitioner. --George D. Reskakis, DDS, - The New York State Dental Journal, June/July 2011
This is an ideal read for dental students and experienced general dental practitioners and dental technicians alike. This modern approach to shade selection will improve job satisfaction by helping to improve the quality of care that we provide our patients. --O. Morgan, - British Dental Journal, May 2012
