Reviews
"This is a fine addition to the literature that will be useful to many practitioners as it is so comprehensive. I do not know of any other book that covers this number of different appliances with such good descriptions." ( Doody's , 13 December 2013) "I found this book largely beneficial as it is not profusely technical and so is easily understood by the general dental audience. The proof of the success of the book is very much evident in the 'test yourself' sections. I found after reading it my knowledge had vastly improved, which was reflected in my answers to the case discussions. So for anyone who wants a better understanding of both removable appliances and retainers I would highly recommend this book." ( British Dental Journal , 23 November 2013) "Removable appliances are a more than useful adjunct to comprehensive orthodontic treatment, and Drs Luther and Nelson-Moon have produced an excellent text which brings removable appliances right up to date for the 21st Century." ( Orthodontics , 1 October 2013) "As a whole, this book is well organized, clear, and easy to read. . . I also recommend this book to dental technicians as an additional text for their training program." ( European Journal of Orthodontics , 1 August 2013)

- e***n (392)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
