As Good As New: A Consumer's Guide to Dental Implants

Summary: An informative book for people considering dental implants
Review: I am sure most people who are looking for current, detailed information about dental implants will soon find, as I did, that there aren't many books on the subject written in laymen's terms. In fact, most books for sale about dental implants are dental textbooks! But thanks to Dr. Babbush, there is now an easy to understand book available and best of all, it's very well done. The book includes lots of illustrations, pictures and real-life examples of people who have had dental implant surgery. If you or someone you know is considering dental implants or has some type of tooth issue that could be remedied by implants, you should definitely buy this book.

Summary: Felt like and infomercial
Review: I ordered this book, hoping it would help me make a decision about implants vs other choices. I have a background in healthcare and wanted to know a lot of details. I was disappointed in the book. It looks like a glossy promo and it reads like a long infomercial. It didn't contain the detail about options, relative advantages and disadvantages I was looking for. I can't recommend this book.

Summary: An upbeat, "patient-friendly" guide
Review: Leading dental implant surgeon Charles A. Babbush draws upon his professional experience and considerable expertise in As Good As New: A Consumer's Guide To Dental Implants, to present the reading public with an upbeat, "patient-friendly" guide to the pros and cons of dental implant surgery as used to restore teeth lost from accidents, sports injuries, or other causes. Full-color photographs illustrate a quite practical discussion of determining whether dental implants are right for one, understanding what to do if something goes wrong with an implant, daily adjustments to living with implants, and more. As Good As New is very highly recommended reading for anyone contemplating or seeking to learn more about dental implant surgery for themselves or members of their family.
