We are sure it ' s the latter and only wish we had been exposed to Dr. Levin and staff sooner . . . the latest in techniques, in thoughts, in dental education. A man dedicated to the teaching of prosthetics, interested in the student enough to be sure that he is learning something . . . The introduction of world-famous lecturers.
