Problems and Procedures in Dentofacial Orthopedics

This book emphasizes complex clinical situations where discrepancies in tooth position, occlusion, and jaw relationships are combined with anomalies in function, in development of the dentition, or in facial growth. The author emphasizes theoretical bases that change less or change less rapidly than do treatment techniques and posits that most faulty decisions and errors in clinical orthodontics are due to inadequate theoretical knowledge, not lack of practical ability.
