| Editorial Review | This is a very informative textbook which I would definitely recommend and have learnt from. I wish I had known about it and read it on my undergraduate course - at the time I had not realised that there was such a concise book on the subject at a suitable level, interesting and easy to read! This book should give people the confidence and encouragement to perform more endodontic procedures. Georgina Baker, PG Student, Eastman Dental Institute, UK Overall, an EXCELLENT and concise endodontic book for all clinicians of varying backgrounds and experience. I would highly recommend it!
