Techniques for Delivery of Maxillary and Mandibular Anesthesia

Best Overview of Essential Procedure

I just completed Dr. Towne's Dentoalveolar Surgery On-Demand Course and wanted to commend him on the quality of this presentation. Over the span of my career this may rate as the best overview of essential procedure practice of any CE course I have taken. This speaker has the ability to provide such clarity and comprehensive treatment of a fundamental topic.
