Guiding the growth and development of the orofacial structures is critical in early dental intervention. This book explores dental orthopaedics, focusing on diagnosis and correction of skeletal and dental discrepancies in growing patients. It covers appliances used to modify jaw growth and enhance arch development. Growth assessment, treatment timing, and case planning are detailed. The content emphasizes the importance of early orthopedic correction to minimize future orthodontic complexities.
