"Speak With Confidence: Even With Dentures is a valuable book, long overdue. It jumps right into the practical needs of a denture wearer, clearly divided into chapters with each chapter covering what, why, how to and action. This useful and practical guide then closes with a Weekly Tracking Calendar and Summary Chart of Consonants. As a retired dental professional, I consider this to be a must read' for denture wearers to dispel all concerns and insecurities around speaking clearly and confidently."
