Essential
A great app from this great author. Nothing more to add. 5 stars.
Good, needs more info.
Great graphics, but easy to get disorientated without needle being depicted. Possible Improvements; 1) Narrative during procedure rather than "sedation music." 2) Reference to point types and body styles desired. 3) Hints such as how to avoid the swage with the hemostat to minimize needle separation. Well worth the money, just need to put a bit more effort into it to make it a "must have" for practitioners. As we say in Kansas "Theres more chicken left on that bone."
Great app
As a dental student at New York University College of Dentistry, I find this app very helpful and useful. It may be a little difficult to orient oneself without having a needle representation, nevertheless this is a minor and insignificant flaw compared to the benefit that this app offers. Thank you for this and I am excited to see similar apps for other fields in dentistry.
