Atlas of Complex Orthodontics 1st Edition

Introducing the Atlas of Complex Orthodontics, a groundbreaking text featuring step-by-step instructions for addressing today’s most challenging orthodontic cases. This atlas-style guide includes over 1,500 full-color clinical photographs, radiographs, and illustrations that document each phase of treatment, beginning with the pre-treatment assessment, progressing through the treatment sequence, and concluding with the final outcomes. Drs. Ravindra Nanda and Flavio Uribe explore the latest techniques for managing moderate to severe orthodontic issues, including the use of temporary anchorage devices and the “surgery-first” orthognathic approach, ensuring you remain at the forefront of the evolving field of orthodontics.

• Each case is presented in a standardized, atlas-style format that guides you through the pre-treatment intraoral and extraoral analyses, smile evaluation, diagnosis and case summary (including the problem list and treatment plan), a brief overview of treatment options, the treatment sequence and biomechanical plan, and the final results.
• UNIQUE! Over 1,500 high-quality photographs, radiographs, and line drawings illustrate the treatment stages for a variety of complex orthodontic challenges, enhancing understanding.
• Addresses moderate to severe orthodontic issues, including vertical discrepancies, anterior-posterior issues, transverse problems, missing maxillary lateral incisors, impacted teeth, and surgical correction of dentofacial deformities.
• A multidisciplinary approach to treatment encourages practitioners to integrate insights from various disciplines, redefine problems beyond conventional boundaries, and arrive at solutions based on a nuanced understanding of complex cases.
• Coverage includes the “surgery-first” orthognathic approach (SFOA), a time-saving strategy within the combined orthodontic-surgical approach for selected prognathism cases.
• Lead author Dr. Ravindra Nanda, Chair of the Department of Orthodontics at the University of Connecticut, is highly respected in the field of orthodontics.
• Discusses the application of temporary anchorage devices (TADs) for correcting various types of malocclusion.
