Mosby's Dental Drug Reference - 6th Edition

Comprehensive drug handbook for dentistry. The sixth edition of Gage will be a departure from the fifth because it will include a free CD-ROM. The CD will offer the user 100 full-colour views of pathologic conditions. These won't be limited to oral pathology, but will include the most common conditions that a patient may exhibit. The CD will also include a selection of Patient Education sheets that the practitioner can customize and use in the office to give to patients. These address specific instructions for patients taking drugs prescribed by the physician. In addition to offering the new CD-ROM the sixth edition will be a solid revision.
