The updated 8th edition of this classic reference provides a visually-oriented presentation of dental macromorphology and evidence-based chronologies of the human dentitions, while reflecting definitive shifts in modern dental practice. New features include an enhanced reader-friendly approach, new color illustrations, and a greater emphasis on clinical applications. A new, interactive CD-ROM offers three-dimensional animations of masticatory movements - including tooth contact relationships and temporomandibular joint movements - that bring the text's illustrations to life. Plus, an interactive mock examination mimics the National Board exam for outstanding review and practice.
Unfortunately some of the reviewers are steeped in subjective reality and probably the users and promoters of another dental anatomy text. In a period of evidence based dental education and practice, a book without much of a refernce base is outdated; a book with out a CD is outdated; a book without a good index is hardly useful; a book without the latest information on dental anatomy is outdated; and a book without facts to build on is no book at all. Wheeler's 8th edition has none of these deficiences.
Quit your whining. There are too many dentists anyway.

To the reviewers who vilified this tome-> Hey guys, this text is a classic. If learning is such a hateful thing to you, get out of dentistry now. You're off to a good start to become a second rate dentist as it is. Here's an idea: learn how to love dentistry, because you'll be practicing for a long time. Call me crazy. I've been called worse.
