A waste of time
I bought this book as a second year dental student to help me with all the new technical words I was learning. Unfortunately, I found that 8 out of 10 words that I attempted to look up were not there and these were words that should be in any decent dental dictionary. Instead, the dictionary is filled with pointless words such as 'orders' and 'qualified'. Two years later I am still struggling to understand how these managed to be included in a dental dictionary and I would advise everyone to stay clear from this so called 'dental' dictionary.

Essential One for all in dental world
Mosby's Dental Dictionary is the one we need to keep with us who are dental professionals. It is not only for dental professionals, but all in dental world also. It also give us the complicated pronunciation by clicking on the item and/or word. The enclosed CD-Rom is useful because we can also access to the internet directly and quick search of the vocabularly that you want to know. Easiest and quickest!!
In precis, I only want to say "Don't confuse to buy it now".

Don't bother
I have to agree with the first comment: this dictionary is a waste of time. Firstly, any word you try to look up, it either refers you to a different word or is not there. Secondly - as mentioned above - the dictionary is full of useless words which don't have all that much relevance to Dentistry. Another example of a useless word in the dictionarythis is "respect". If you didn't know what respect meant, then a) you probably shouldn't be doing Dentistry, and b) you should buy a normal English dictionary to look it up.
