Glossary Of Orthodontic Terms

Glossary of Orthodontic Terms

Daskalogiannakis (orthodontics and oral biology, U. of Nymegen, The Netherlands) offers a reference to material that orthodontic residents are likely to encounter during their postgraduate education and/or preparation for Board examinations. He suggests that it might also help undergraduates familiarize themselves with the terminology, serve as an update for orthodontists and general dentists, and provide help to allied professionals who collaborate with orthodontists. Cross- references are largely restricted to alternative names, and no index alleviates the neglect. There are no pronunciation guides to wrap those pretty pearlies around. c. Book News Inc.
