This textbook is considered a bible.. in orthodontics. .In my opinion it is important & you have to pay for..

This book is, was, and always will be the main resource that anyone should read for orthodontics. With al due respect to all other authors in orthodontics, this book speaks to dentists/students of all levels of skill, and simplifies things in an objective, education-oriented, evidence-based scheme that I sadly do not see in some other textbooks.If you're struggling with understanding anything related to cranial growth, eruption sequencing, malocclusion, and the different modalities of treatment, then I suggest you read this book as is not only will make your life easier, but also will be able to deliver all the information you will need. All of this in a well adjusted, extremely relatable, and uncomplicated language. It is to our fortune that we have teachers like this in our life. Do not miss out, it's a book for lifetime reference.

This is a required text book for my residency, but is an excellent read. Comprehensive orthodontics with loads of great graphs and color photos.
