Book Reviews of Review Questions and Answers for Dental Assisting, 1e

Book Review: Excellent prep for certification exams!
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm studying for the California RDA exam (not the same as the DANB RDA exam), and my background is strictly two years of on-the-job training. I did not attend dental assisting classes, but learned everything on the job. Needless to say, when you learn on the job, you don't learn things outside of the scope of your office's practice, so this is a great source of "catch-up" information.

I'm finding the questions hard-- because it requires you to know a little anatomy (which teeth have 5 cusps, of which 3 are on the buccal, and 2 roots), medical terms (amelogenesis, exogenous, granuloma,osteitis), radiography (insufficient KvP causes what problems on films?), a little OSHA (what's the purpose of MSDS?), a little chemistry, a little legal, and a LOT of infection control. This book teaches you many things you wouldn't learn on the job, because your dentist might be old-school, cutting corners, or just not up-to-date on OSHA... or you just didn't need to know it because your office equipment was already set up(like what temperature and pressure are needed to sterilize wrapped instruments).

I love the format of this book-- no fluff, no lengthy text. It's pure brass tacks. This book is strictly questions with 4 multiple-choice answers, and answers with explanation. I recommend, in addition to this book, a good dental dictionary that will help you with the vocabulary that the book doesn't explain. The book tends to explain the correct answer, and sometimes doesn't explain the incorrect answers.

I highly recommend this book.

Summary of Review Questions and Answers for Dental Assisting, 1e

Be sure you have the knowledge you need to become a Certified Dental Assistant or pass your local and state exams! Three simulated practice certification exams - 960 multiple-choice questions in all - closely mirror the content you'll be tested on, so you get the best preparation possible. Plus, an accompanying CD lets you generate unlimited practice exams with randomized questions from the book, as well as test your knowledge of state-specific expanded function requirements.

Three simulated Certified Dental Assistant (CDA) practice exams are organized into CDA exam sections, with the same number of questions you can expect to see in each section - General Chairside, Infection Control, and Radiation Health and Safety.
Photos and illustrations pictured with the exam questions provide a realistic exam simulation.
Rationales for correct and incorrect answers help you assess your understanding and gauge your exam readiness.
An additional, on-screen practice exam on the accompanying CD familiarizes you with computer-based testing.
Select your state on the CD to answer questions that reflect current expanded function requirements.
Web links to national organizations and relevant dental sites help you know where to look for additional information.
