Produktbeschreibung
Deciding whether or not to extract permanent teeth is probably the one aspect of orthodontic practice that has stirred up the most debate.

Besides a laudable desire to spare our patients the trauma and cost of extractions, and the wish to save their permanent teeth, the controversy concerns the supposed consequences of these extractions. Detractors argue that they would be, among other reasons, a contributing factor to the development or worsening of dysfunctional disorders of the masticatory apparatus (TMD) or obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), and of deleterious effects on the esthetics of the profile and of the smile.

Supe que quería ser ortodoncista y aproveché todas las oportunidades que tuve para aprender sobre ortodoncia. Este libro comparte algunos conocimientos y espero que se beneficien de ello.
