In the established tradition of the Clinical Success series, this succinct and easy-to-read book provides practitioners with a solid foundation for daily clinical use of the Invisalign system. The author introduces the reader to essentials of Invisalign treatment, from the basic biomechanics of thermoformed plastic aligners to the the Clin-Check 3D simulation treatment planning software, which allows the clinician to program in advance the velocity and direction of tooth movements; amount and frequency of force; anchorage; and available space necessary for the planned movements. Clinical results of various treatment types are shown using Invisalign system alone and in conjunction with other orthodontic treatments. This book is ideal for any orthodontist who wants to use the Invisalign system to achieve an optimal treatment outcome.

This book is designed to meet the needs of all orthodontists interested in treating children, adolescents, and/or adults with brackets placed on the palatal and lingual surfaces of the teeth. It explains how to achieve excellent results, comparable to those obtained with labial brackets, by means of techniques performed entirely within the dental office and avoiding use of expensive outside laboratories. The book is divided into three parts. The first is devoted to biomechanics, considering each type of malocclusion and describing how to prepare the arches optimally. This is not a theoretical section; rather it covers aspects acknowledged to be of prime practical importance by students and doctors. The second part explains how to treat the most common malocclusions, with step-by-step descriptions of techniques used in everyday clinical practice. The concluding part of the book describes finishing procedures to enhance aesthetics and discusses long-term results.

Many practitioners still have difficulty determining whether it is appropriate to begin orthodontic treatment before the eruption of the full permanent dentition. The authors of this book show that it is possible to establish the most favorable moment to initiate treatment if one has a thorough understanding of the morphogenesis and pathogenesis of craniofacial anatomy and development as well as some training in child psychology. This concise clinical manual explores each of these concepts in detail to address such practical issues as when orthodontic treatment should begin, which techniques should be used, what advantages can be gained from early treatment, how to take accurate records and form a precise diagnosis for the various malocclusions, and how to choose the method best suited to an individual patient from the wide range of therapeutic options available.

Piezoelectric surgery is an innovative approach to hard tissue surgery that meets the essential biologic criteria. The long-term stability of the periodontium and alveolar bone is facilitated by ultrasonic instrumentation that offers atraumatic surgical procedures; limited risk to surrounding tissue; and improved visibility, hemostasis, and postoperative conditions. This book presents the clinical applications of ultrasonic devices in bone surgery, including its indications, advantages, and limitations. New surgical protocols and numerous illustrated clinical cases help guide developing surgeons in the nuances of ultrasonic-based bone surgery for optimal clinical results.
