The only resource of its kind in full color , this comprehensive textbook/CD-ROM learning system is designed to revolutionize the way students learn and apply dental hygiene concepts. It teaches the fundamentals of clinical practice and focuses on actively engaging the reader in the learning process. By partnering interactive exercises and video segments on CD-ROM with textbook material and related cases, this outstanding tool reinforces dental hygiene concepts and procedures on a number of levels. Students don't just learn information, they use it. In addition, all topics in the text are directly related to the American Dental Education Association's Competencies for Entry into the Profession of Dental Hygiene -ensuring that this resource is practical, useful, and invaluable to anyone learning dental hygiene. A full-color, highly visual design with extensive learning features stimulates the reader's interest, and full-color illustrations bring the text to life. Case scenarios in each chapter expose students to case-based learning, the current format of the Dental Hygiene National Board Examination . Competencies required of each dental hygiene program are presented in each section of the book and related to coverage of specific concepts. A FREE CD-ROM, developed by the authors in partnership with Procter & Gamble, includes direct links to Procter & Gamble's Dental ResourceNet as well as Mosby's dental website, enabling users to access updated information and testing mechanisms. "How-to" video segments on the CD-ROM demonstrate complete dental procedures, followed by an interactive review process that reinforces the student's understanding of each procedure. The CD-ROM is constructed to reflect the dental process of care: assess, diagnose, plan, implement, and evaluate. A CD icon appears in the book whenever that content is also featured on the CD-ROM for application of the material. A review of the procedures performed on the CD-ROM helps the user assess his or her grasp of the procedure. Video segments on the accompanying CD-ROM demonstrate how to perform dental procedures. A list of Learning Outcomes at the beginning of the chapter lets readers know what they are expected to learn. Each chapter begins with an outline of chapter content to facilitate rapid identification of important topics. Key Terms listed at the beginning of each chapter highlight important new words. These are defined in a glossary in the textbook and on the CD-ROM. Critical Thinking Activities in each chapter facilitate classroom discussion and enable students to work through clinical situations based on information learned from the text and CD-ROM. Multiple-choice Review Questions related to chapter content are presented at the end of each chapter, with an answer key and rationales at the end of the book. Suggested Agencies and Web Sites and Additional Readings and Resources direct the reader to other media for further information on specific chapter topics.
