Spectacular book

The illustrated history of dentistry is an excellent book. As a dentist, I find that it gives a wonderful overview of dentistry from all periods of time. It's a great resource for all dental students or dentists to provide patients with interesting tidbits about how dentistry has evolved and how things have changed for the better!
