This second edition of Questions and Answers for Dental Nurses reflects the major changes that have taken place in dental nursing over recent years. A valuable self-assessment guide for dental nurses, this edition covers the topics featured on the NEBDN examination, together with the National Vocational Qualification (S/NVQ) in Oral Healthcare, up to Level 3. With mandatory registration in mind, coverage on subjects relevant to Access to Registration Training (ART) is extended. More than just questions and answers, the book often provides guidance on the orientation of examinations, the questions involved and helpful explanatory information on responses. An invaluable resource for trainee dental nurses seeking qualification, as well as returning or refocusing certified dental nurses.

She has been training dental nurses for more than ten years and her involvement with the wider education of dental nurses includes roles as an NEBDN examiner, council member and former chair of the 'National' sub-committee. She is a member of the BADN national teaching group and a qualified NVQ assessor. She has also written the popular NVQs for Dental Nurses.
