Description
As levels of major dental diseases of caries and periodontitis decline, many dental practitioners wish to undertake simple orthodontic treatment for their patients. The purpose of this book is to help general practitioners improve their case assessment and treatment planning skills. The book is divided into three sections, presenting records of untreated cases, the correct assessment of the malocclusion following a widely used format and, finally, details of the treatment plan, appliance design, a treatment summary and post treatment records.
