A Textbook of Orthodontics

The aim of the book still continues to be that of providing a basic text for the undergraduate and a primer for the postgraduate. It will nonetheless be useful for vocational training programs and as a basis for the extended training courses in orthodontics now being organized for the established dental practitioner.

It is designed to appeal to both undergraduate dental students and the practicing dentist, and it is both easy-to-read and fully illustrated.
