Review
This is a thorough examination of paediatric dentistry and will prove useful for all students and practitioners who treat children. (Doody's Journal )

Paediatric Dentistry is an invaluable resource for both the undergraduate and postgraduate dental clinician. It possesses a great wealth of information; thoughtfully constructed for accessibility and clarity. I am a strong advocate of this textbook, and thoroughly recommend it to both generalists and specialists. (Dental Update, January 2006 )
