It offers comprehensive support on mandatory units of the course in addition to supplying material on the optional units most common to clinical dentistry.

Modern to the core, the book will develop the NVQ dental nurse’s understanding of current dental practice, as well as providing refreshing reading for those educated on the ‘National’ course.
