Book description
Orthodontic Treatment of Impacted Teeth
provides its readers with a gold-standard resource to tackle common,
complex and multi-factorial clinical scenarios. Rooted firmly in the
scientific reality, it also provides a valuable repository of the
evidence-base for this subject area.
The third edition of this classic text has been fully revised
and updated to reflect the latest advances in research and clinical
practice. It discusses recent developments in the periodontal outcome
of surgical exposure of impacted teeth, and also incorporates more
protocols for routine cases. This enables clinicians to develop their
skills in the simpler cases, as well as to improve their understanding
of complex and rare presentations. An especially useful chapter looks
at failure and impending failure, providing a valuable insight into
the real life management of impacted teeth. The author describes how
to recognize failure and proposes ways to avoid it, frequently
illustrating them with cases from his own clinic.
