Impacted teeth are a commonly encountered in dental practice, yet currently there is not a comprehensive book detailing the surgical treatments and orthodontic therapy to erupt or manage these teeth. Written by arguably the best orthodontist in the world and his esteemed periodontist colleague of almost 40 years, this text covers the various types of impactions an orthodontist and surgeon will encounter, including maxillary central incisors, maxillary canines (both labially and palatally impacted), mandibular canines, premolars, and mandibular molars.

Each chapter focuses on a specific impacted tooth and how it can be surgically uncovered and orthodontically moved. The book also presents a chapter on failed cases, explaining what went wrong and how to prevent such negative outcomes when treating similar cases.

Ideal for any dental practitioner who treats impacted teeth, this comprehensive and up-to-date book is a fitting legacy for Dr Kokich, whose impact within the field of orthodontics will be felt for years to come.

The Biomechanical Foundation of Clinical Orthodontics 1st edition 2015 Artikelnr.: 15941 180.00 € Burstone, Charles J. / Choy, Kwangchul The Biomechanical Foundation of Clinical Orthodontics All orthodontic treatment modalities can be improved by the application of sound biomechanics, yet most orthodontic therapy today is delivered without consideration of forces or force systems. Orthodontic hardware itself is only a means to an end point, such as tooth alignment, bone remodeling, or growth modifications; the orthodontist can achieve these goals only by manipulating forces, regardless of the techniques used. Written by a world-renowned authority on the subject, this book teaches bi[...]	Nakajima, Eiichiro Manual of Wire Bending Techniques 1st edition 2010 Artikelnr.: 18581 85.00 € Nakajima, Eiichiro Manual of Wire Bending Techniques Effective wire bending techniques that are customized to each individual patient make orthodontic treatment more efficient and can reduce treatment time.

This renders interpretation of pretreatment-to-posttreatment changes unreliable. The structural method of superimposition is the only evidence-based method of superimposition, and it provides individualized, farreaching insight into growth and treatment changes.

Biomechanics in Orthodontics Principles and Practice Though comprehensive diagnosis and treatment planning set the stage for effective orthodontic treatment, it is a clear understanding of the fundamental biomechanical principles behind orthodontic force that allows the clinician to design the most favorable appliances and systems. Correct application of the principles of biomechanics leads to highly efficient and successful orthodontic treatment; a lack of proper understanding produces ineffectual systems that may even lead to collateral tissue d[...]
