The ultimate utilization of the expertise and skills in various dental disciplines is called interdisciplinary dentofacial therapy (IDT). Its hallmark is the combination of regimental diagnostic, treatment planning and therapeutic procedures with extensive communication between the team members. The terms interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary are similar in that they both involve two or more different disciplines, however the prefix 'inter' signifies working 'between' the different disciplines instead of disciplines acting as separate entities. Interdisciplinary therapy permits the synergism of each different discipline's specialised expertise and skills into a comprehensive therapy that consistently delivers optimal patient care
