Summary:

The topic of how to deal with missing teeth in children is a controversial one. Here, an internationally respected orthodontist gives practical guidance on how to achieve a functional and esthetic result for these patients, taking into account also the possibilities offered by restorative, periodontic, and prosthodontic approaches. Each chapter presents different orthodontic complications, illustrated by numerous cases. The cases are presented in full, from the start of orthodontic treatment to the final interdisciplinary solutions to each, using comprehensive records, radiographs, tracings, and colour photographs. The book contains over 800 full colour illustrations.
