New Dentistry E-books

You asked, we listened!  

After surveying CDM, the majority of the student body would prefer that the library purchase e-books instead of print books.  As a result, the library has focused on adding more e-books to the collection this semester.  We have just added a number of new online dentistry books.  

These titles and more can be accessed on the Dentistry Research Guide:

Basic Guide to Orthodontic Dental Nursing

Biostatistics for Oral Healthcare

Bone Grafting Techniques for Maxillary Implants

Cysts of the Oral and Maxillofacial Regions 4e

Dental Reception and Practice Management
