Excess Face
Height Malocclusion: Etiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment
by Sten Linder-Aronson and Donald G. Woodside
ISBN: 086715389x Publisher: Quintessence, May 2000
$48.00 120 pages Hardcover
Review: "This book is very useful for orthodontic or ENT students who
are in the latter half of their residencies. Professionals who favor
extraction mechanotherapy based on breathing issues or vertically
oriented growth patterns whould also read this book as the statistics
(and the photographs of the patients who had their tonsils and
adenoids out) are very compelling. The subject is extremely important
since it represents a significant percentage of the tougher cases that
any professional who concentrates in facial growth will observe. I
would recommend this book to any individual who is trying to
understand why the vertical dimension of the face is so difficult to
control."

Thom ISBN 0723610010 Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann Medical,
Aug. 1995 $105.00 143 pages
Out of print - limited availability.
Book Description:
Modern materials, besides offering much improved physical characteristics
have facilitated the availability of 'aesthetic' appliances.
This resulted in an
increase in the number of patients requesting treatment.
Along with this,
the readiness with which fixed appliances can now be provided
has increased the danger of their being used in inexperienced hands.
The purpose of this book is to provide the newcomer to orthodontics
with an understanding of the basic principles involved as well as
the mechanics appropriate for moving teeth with fixed appliances.
It also gives general guidance on how to position teeth in order to
achieve optimum functional and aesthetic results that will have
long-term stability. The book emphasizes simplicity and clarity.
It is profusely
illustrated with numerous line drawings and color photographs. 'Fixed
Orthodontic Appliances' should be essential reading for any graduate
commencing orthodontic training, as well as for the interested
general practitioner.

ISBN: 1850971277 Publisher: Quintessence, July 2006
$228 330 pages Hardcover. This book is also listed under
Cosmetic Dentistry.
Free shipping!
Book
Description: This is the first book to be published on the Invisalign System,
and is designed for clinicians who want to integrate Invisalign into
their practice. It provides the reader with an in-depth look at the
technology, performance, and clinical applications of this uniquely
esthetic and patient-friendly approach to orthodontic treatment.
Unlike conventional fixed orthodontic treatment approaches, Invisalign
is a system that uses the clinician’s diagnostic data to create a
three-dimensional image of the desired course of tooth movement;
treatment is then carried out using a series of custom-manufactured
removable, clear plastic aligners. The book is full of full-color
images that illustrate every step of this process: impression taking,
image acquisition, and virtual diagnosis through digital
three-dimensional treatment planning. Clinical considerations, such as
indications and contraindications, esthetic analysis, and treatment of
adolescents, are also discussed. In addition, the technology behind
the Invisalign System - including software, appliance design,
manufacturing, material properties, biomechanics of force systems
applied to the teeth, and periodontal response to treatment - is
presented in the context of how it currently functions as well as
research and development for future innovations.
