The authors have produced a concise summary of dental public health, never an easy thing to produce. It will be invaluable not only for undergraduates but also for professions complimentary to dentistry learning about public health. Postgraduate students and practitioners will find it a useful reference. I found it to be well laid out, interesting, and a very readable book. I'm sure I will refer to it at various tmes throughout my dental career.

This book is well organized, well indexed, and extremely easy to read -- so much so that I would have no problem recommending it to a layperson. ... It is an excellent review for board preparation and textbook for dental/hygiene students. This edition provides current information and reinforces the role and relevancy of dental public health as a specialty.

Gregory A. Stoute, Doody's Notes

Public health is a key concern of modern dental practitioners as they continue to play a vital role in the health of populations across the world. The second edition of Essential Dental Public Health identifies the links between clinical practice and public health with a strong emphasis on evidence-based medicine. Fully revised and updated for a second edition, this textbook is split into four parts covering all the need-to-know aspects of the subject: the principles of dental public health, oral epidemiology, prevention and oral health promotion, and the governance and organization of health services. Essential Dental Public Health is an ideal introduction to the field for dentistry undergraduates, as well as being a helpful reference for postgraduates and practitioners.
