Dentistry for Kids
Rethinking Your Daily Practice
200 pp; 187 illus; ©2020;
ISBN 978-1-64724-013-4 (B0134); US $98
This book presents the fundamentals of pediatric dentistry and explains how to incorporate them into an existing dental practice, with particular focus given to educating and managing parents to be the best advocate for their children’s oral health. While the book is a useful reference for everyday practice in terms of examination, diag- nostics, and findings, it goes further to include tips on how to create a child-friendly environ- ment, how to communicate with young patients, and how to handle difficult situations with uncooperative patients or parents. The second half of the book is given over to treatment consid- erations, spanning from preventive treatment like fluorides and sealants to filling and crown therapy as well as antibiotic use, trauma, sedation, and other particular challenges in everyday practice.
Dr Uhlmann spends her days in a group pediatric dentistry practice, and, together with a Leipzig midwives practice, she has launched a parents workshop where relevant topics concerning children’s oral health are explained to pregnant women and parents. Interdisciplinary work with midwives, pediatricians, and speech therapists is a cornerstone of her professional ethos.
“It’s all about fun! The more fun a kid
has in your office, the more compliant
he or she will be. Make sure you have fun toys, you hand out cool prizes, and you engage the
child in fun ways.”

THIRD EDITION
The Internet has given us access to an unprecedented amount of information, but this development also facilitates the spread of misinformation if we do not think critically and evaluate what we read. The third edition of this classic textbook has been revised based on developments in biomedical research practices over the past decade to provide readers with the most up-to-date resource for navigating the ever-expanding world of dental literature.
This book emphasizes how readers can practically apply critical thinking skills to evaluate scientific literature and thereby make the most informed decisions for their patients and themselves.
