This book is truly the bible for orthodontics. It covers all aspects of orthodontics in detail with excellent diagrams and pictures. The only book you will need.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comments on "Contemporary Orthodontics", March 28, 2000
By Dr. Andrew Hamadi (Mermaid Waters Australia) - See all my reviews
An Excellent Book for General Practioners contemplating orthodontics in their practice who want to understand more deeply the treatment they deliver.

Not recommended for undergraduates as is too detailed.
