This must-have revision aid is aimed at post-certification dental nurses studying for one or more of the post-registration certificates, or more generally, looking to undertake non-verifiable CPD or further their knowledge and skills in advanced topics.
Chapters span the following post-certification qualifications: dental sedation nursing, dental radiography, orthodontic nursing, oral health education, special care dentistry and implant dental nursing.
In each case questions are written in a multiple choice format and cover the breadth and depth of each topic as necessary for each qualification. This book is intended as a revision aid and therefore questions are designed to fully test the readers understanding of the subject. Detailed and explanatory answers to all the questions are provided at the end of each chapter. A companion website provides students with a selection of mock questions, mirroring the format of each exam. Formats might include MCQs as well as extended matching questions (EMQs) and short answer questions (SAQs).
The book would also be a useful advanced selfassessment guide for trainee dental nurses following the Foundation Degree, National Examination or NVQ pre-registration courses.
Features
- Covers each of the post-certification courses
