Summary: LOVED IT
Comment: I had to get this book for school, and I am glad that I had to get it because I used it so much, in every class, referenced it many times for homework assignments and for term papers.

Summary: Dr. Wilkins is amazing!
Comment: I attended a lecture given by Dr. Wilkins and had my 8th edition text autographed. She is a vivacious, wonderful woman and gave me the refresher I needed. The book is a wonderful part of what it means to be a dental hygienist. To see so many different editions (and so many matching gel pens) carried into the lecture hall was amazing. Truly a book treasured by the prudent dental hygienist.

Summary: A leading text for Dental Hygiene
Comment: Now in its 9th edition, Clinical Practice of the Dental Hygienist retains its standing as a leading text for dental hygiene. Readers of this text will find it useful as an initial source of information for some topics and as a supplemental source for others. Chapters devoted to core content (as dental radiography) can be used as either an overview to a separate course in the curriculum, or for summary and review upon completion of that separate course. The chapters in Section VII Patients with Special Needs offer accurate introductions and overviews for a wide variety of special needs individuals and contain current information grounded in recognized and authoritative sources. An extensive listing of resources follows each chapter, encouraging further pursuit of scope and depth as desired. A dental hygiene educator for 24 years, my first encounter with Clinical Practice of the Dental Hygienist was the 2nd edition of this text 34 years ago; today's 9th edition continues to be a valuable inclusion in the professional library of any dental hygiene student or working dental hygiene professional.

Summary: "Special Needs" Chapter inaccurate
Comment: Although the contents of this book are comparable with the others of its kind, I agree that much of the material is fundamental in studying and reference. However, in the chapter dedicated to "The Patient With Mental Retardation", the author falsely places those suffering from Tourette Syndrome into this category of special needs. Yes, individuals diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome should definately be treated by the health care professional as "special needs", but there is NO connection to mental retardation what-so-ever. In fact, you will find that Tourette's patients have above average I.Q.'s. Instead, the dental team should be educated of this now common disorder. We must be made aware of involuntary movements and vocal sounds known as "tics", which could quite easliy cause interference with treatments. We should also made made aware of the MANY comorbids associated with Tourette's, as this too can afffect quality of care. As a mother of a beautiful child with TS, I am upset that an author who quotes in her preface that "self-education is essential for continuing competence after entering professional practice" as well as the importance of keeping up to date with the latest literatures, wouldn't have reviewed the accuracy of her own work before publication. It's disappointing that this book is a requirement of my school's dental hygiene program.
