Handbook of Orthodontics

The third edition of this popular textbook represents an easy to understand evidence-based guide to orthodontics and is due for release in October 2024.

The Handbook of Orthodontics offers a concise and accessible overview of the scientific and clinical basis of orthodontics. 

   This textbook explores the concepts of occlusion and malocclusion, craniofacial development, postnatal growth, and development of the dentition. It takes the reader through the principles of patient examination, orthodontic diagnosis, and treatment planning - with detailed chapters on the management of malocclusion in both the mixed and permanent dentitions, fixed appliances, cleft lip and palate, craniofacial syndromes and orthognathic surgery.

   The third edition has three new dedicated chapters covering Dentofacial Orthopaedics, Skeletal Anchorage and Clear Aligner Systems. There is a strong emphasis on evidence-based medicine throughout the text, with a dedicated chapter outlining the theoretical basis of good clinical research and critical appraisal, with summaries of the latest clinical evidence presented throughout the book. A clear writing style and the inclusion of over 500 high-quality illustrations make the Handbook a defining text for postgraduate students training for specialist exams and dental undergraduates wanting to learn more about clinical orthodontics.
