Description
Drawing together epidemiological and clinical knowledge on the prevention on dental caries and periodontal disease, this book emphasizes the tremendous improvement in oral health that could be achieved if more rigorous preventive measures were put into practice in childhood. "A valuable addition to the field. Two sections on diet and dental caries and fluoride and caries, which compromise almost half of the book, are the most comprehensive reviews currently available....This book is worthwhile reading for students and practitioners who want a literate review and an update on the science of preventive dentistry."--Journal of the American Dental Association
