Customer Reviews

Great for Dental Nurses revision
This book Contains almost every question which could be asked in the national examination its a great help with revision. It covers all the parts of the examination and is good practice for the real thing.

A great help to get you through the exam
I would not say it's a must-have for the National Certificate because I found lots of the questions are over and above what you actually need to know for the exam - or was I just lucky and it was easier this year? Also be careful because rules and regulations change so often and the book does contain some outdated information. Nevetheless, it is a big help in preparation for the exam. It's easy to use and I especially liked the fact that it not just tells you the right answers but gives detailed explanations even for the multiple chioce questions.
