Great book for all resdents in orthodontics... basic knowledge is a must in the field of orthodontics for this book to be useful. Chapters are well organized and includes many current concepts and theory in contemporary orthodontics.

Not a basic book. There are many interesting orthodontic systems reviewed with the pro and con of each. The author does not indicate any "favorite". You will have to figure that out for yourself. Overall a nice addition, but not a cookbook of treatment.[...]

As you already know, this book is a state of the art in the modern orthodontic world. Nicely put together text and photos, advanced material for the advanced orthodontist, definetly not the student.
