"An excellent and comprehensive introduction to orthodontics, written specifically with dental students, orthodontic therapists and clinicians in mind. It easily achieves its objectives and provides the reader with so much more. It will also appeal to orthodontic postgraduate students as it provides an excellent introductory overview for the reader before they attempt to read more indepth literature." - British Dental Journal, February 2008 "...an excellent introduction to the study and practice of orthodontics...the book is well written...and I would readily recommmend it to all concerned." - Dental Update
