Textbook of Orthodontics
This textbook gives an understanding of the background of clinical orthodontics, but as much of clinical orthodontics needs to be learned in the clinic, the book emphasises appliance design since this can be studied on the printed page.Divided broadly into three parts the book first covers the principles of tooth movement and treatment planning including extractions. The final chapters explain the mechanisms of removable, fixed and functional appliance therapy including the treatment of the main classifications of malocclusion
* all sections revised to take into account the most recent research findings
* sections on occlusion and on cephalometrics have been largely rewritten
* references are now given at the end of each chapter rather than the end of the book
