]]>This book defines and depicts all cephalometric landmarks on a skull or spine in both 2D and 3D and then identifies them on radiographs.
Each major cephalometric analysis is described in detail, and the linear or angular measures are shown pictorially for better understanding.
Because many orthodontists pick specific measures from various cephalometric analyses to formulate their own analysis, these measures are organized relative to the skeletal or dental structure and then compared or contrasted relative to diagnosis, growth, and treatment. Cephalometric norms (eg, age, sex, ethnicity) are also discussed relative to treatment and esthetics.
The final chapter shows the application of these measures to clinical cases to teach clinicians and students how to use them effectively.
As radiology transitions from 2D to 3D, it is important to evaluate the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of each in diagnosis and treatment, and this book outlines all of the relevant concerns for daily practice.

Evidence-Based Orthodontics, Second Edition retains important elements of the First Edition, with several new sections to improve its use as a quick and comprehensive reference. The first section of the book includes a chapter on the history of evidence-based orthodontics (EBO), as well as updated materials on accessing, assessing, and utilizing the evidence. The second section consists of 56 concise summaries of systematic reviews on selected orthodontic topics. Finally, more than 400 systematic reviews document the scope of evidence that is currently available, as well as the gaps that may still exist.
Ideally designed for clinicians and students, this textbook also caters to academicians who may wish to teach EBO or conduct systematic reviews. Methods to search for relevant evidence are described in detail, as are the parameters to critically evaluate the literature for inclusion in systematic reviews. The future of EBO is also discussed in a chapter on “Understanding and Improving Our Evidence.”
Evidence-Based Orthodontics is an essential guide for those wishing to integrate evidence-based principles into their daily practice, as well as their educational and research endeavors.

Identify problems and introduce solutions early for an ideal aesthetic result
Interceptive Orthodontics: A Practical Guide to Occlusal Management aims to guide the practitioner in the art of interceptive management of the developing dentition. The goal is to guide the permanent dentition into the line of the dental arches, avoiding complex orthodontic treatment for teeth displaced far from their ideal position, and thereby reducing orthodontic treatment time. This book covers growth of the jaws and tooth development, and explains the correct timing of interceptive management. It also discusses orthodontic assessment, special investigations and comprehensive management of the mixed dentition, taking in the issues of early crowding, impaction, supernumerary and supplemental teeth, dental arch expansion, space maintenance and space management. In line with best available evidence, it provides clear treatment objectives and detailed treatment planning advice.
Practical, accessible and illustrated with a wealth of colour images, this is an ideal clinical companion for general dental practitioners, oral surgeons, paediatric dentists and orthodontists. It is also a valuable reference for all training grades.
