Contemporary Orthodontics
CONTEMPORARY ORTHODONTICS is the standard textbook in orthodontics, used in nearly all U.S. and Canadian schools at both the predoctoral and postdoctoral levels. The book organizes and presents material following curriculum guidelines devised by the American Association of Dental Schools. Used throughout the entire dental curriculum, Chapters 1 through 12 are appropriate for several courses taught in the first two years of dental school. Chapters 13 through 21 apply to courses in the third and fourth years. The goal of the book is to provide a comprehensive overview of this subject that is accessible to dental students, useful for residents and a valuable reference to practitioners.
