Book Description

This new book is an excellent introduction to orthodontics for the undergraduate, using a problem based learning approach. It provides a visual means of testing knowledge in a subject commonly found difficult by students. The well-illustrated text explains the basic principles of orthodontics, the application of different appliances and the management of common problems. The superb colour illustrations will also make this a valuable tool for the General Dental Practitioner, when explaining problems and treatment plans to the patient. In addition, it provides a firm foundation upon which the postgraduate orthodontic student can base further study.
