Orthodontics Current Principles and Techniques / edited by Amy Reed
Hayle Medical, 2019

This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the field of orthodontics. From theories to research to practical applications, case studies related to all contemporary topics of relevance to this field have been included herein. This book attempts to assist those with a goal of delving into the field of orthodontics." From Publisher's website.
