"Principles in Contemporary Orthodontics" ed. by Silvano Naretto

The attempt of this book is to propose new possibilities and new ways of thinking about Orthodontics beside the ones presented in established and outstanding publications available elsewhere. In the hands of the reader this book could provide an useful tool for the exploration of the application of information, knowledge and belief to some orthodontic topics and questions.

Some of the presented chapters transmit basic information, other clinical experiences and further offer even a window to the future.
