Industry Reviews

Part of Rowman's "Practical Career Guide" series, this volume provides an approachable overview of the dental health field, which comprises dental assistants, hygienists, and technicians. An outline of the duties and job market for each of these roles also includes pro/con lists of these occupations as well as characteristics of success. In addition, there are lists of questions readers can ask themselves about whether this career track is appropriate for them. Career plan information covers educational, certification, and licensing requirements, and a full chapter is devoted to the process of postsecondary training. Clearly the author understands that many in the intended audience will be first-generation college students. The final chapter discusses resumes, applications, and interviewing. Scattered throughout the volume are interviews with practitioners, adding a further humanizing touch to what could have been merely a dry listing of facts and requirements. Sidebars provide definitions, answers to common questions, and tips for finding further information. A glossary and a list of further resources including websites round out the volume. Summing Up: Recommended. Technical and community college students; general readers. * CHOICE *
