Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
The Dental Hygienist's Guide to Nutritional Care
Cynthia A. Stegeman · 2010
74/100
👍 Worth It
For dental hygiene students and practicing hygienists, this is exactly the reference it sets out to be — written by someone with dual credentials in dental hygiene and dietetics, published by Elsevier, and updated through multiple editions. It earns its place in professional curricula. Anyone outside that specialty will find it inaccessible and narrow.
