Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
This book comprehensively covers all the pertinent aspects of preventive dental care taking an evidence-based approach. All the relevant dental diseases and conditions are covered in a user-friendly format with essential points listed as bullets, and incorporating line diagrams and colour illustrations. Each chapter has been written by experts in the subject and include references to current literature. Previous editions have been key texts on most undergraduate
and postgraduate dental courses and the book is also relevant to dental practitioners in continuing professional development.
Long description:
The new edition of Prevention of Oral Disease remains the only comprehensive textbook covering all aspects of dental prevention. Chapters covering conventional preventive issues such as diet and fluorides are complemented by innovative new or revised material in a wide range of areas, including mucosal disease, the pulp and endodontics and periodontal disease. Generic subjects such as the social dimension of oral health and health promotion underpin the
clinically based chapters. The book is relevant to anyone who has to provide or understand prevention, irrespective of their clinical discipline or interest.
This is an essential text for undergraduates, but will be valuable for postgraduate students in many fields, and for dental practitioners and hygienists interested in current thinking on prevention. The material presented is concise, structured and well illustrated and is based on the most recent research evidence. For the first time, the book is presented in an attractive two-colour format and the use of summaries and key points throughout the book ensure that it is learner friendly.
I am delighted to have all 286 pages of this fourth edition of Prevention of Oral Disease on my bookshelf.
