Book Description

November 13, 2003 0723432287 978-0723432289 1
Written by an author with a worldwide reputation as one of the foremost proponents of the Tip-Edge System, this book is a comprehensive introduction to the use of the Tip-Edge orthodontic appliance. The author lectures throughout the US and the rest of the world.
  • Provides a practical introduction to the use of the Tip-Edge technique.
  • Written by a world leader in the clinical development of the Tip-Edge technique.
  • Describes the three stages of treatment in detail with the help of line diagrams.
  • Illustrates the scope of the technique with actual case histories that demonstrate the treatment of cases of greater difficulty that can be handled by conventional appliances.
  • Includes superior color illustrations throughout.
  • Outlines the technique for the complete beginner, but contains finer points of technique for the experienced user.
  • Describes the technique from the viewpoint of someone using the straight wire appliance used by most orthodontists, and compares Tip-Edge with the straight wire appliance throughout. This makes the technique easier to understand for most readers who come from a straight wire background.

Editorial Reviews

Review

REVIEW OF CURRENT EDITION:

"Tip-Edge orthodontics is a text which describes the use, possibilities and clinical advantages of a relatively new appliance system. The design and dynamics of the Tip-Edge bracket are clearly illustrated and described, as are the various auxiliary attachments, bonding and setting up procedures. The book is essentially a 'hands-on' practical treatment atlas or manual in which sequences of treatment of the various types of malocclusions are magnificently illustrated in color on high-gloss paper. Clinicians familiar with both the Begg and edgewise techniques may want to consider using the best of both. There is no doubt that excellent results can be achieved using this relatively new appliance. The results shown in the atlas are superb."
- American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics
