Richly illustrated throughout, this brand new book examines all aspects of a more efficient use of skeletal anchorage devices, including biological and biomechanical considerations, and also features an in-depth discussion of possible complications and risk management. Divided into nine sections, Skeletal Anchorage in Orthodontic Treatment of Class II Malocclusion addresses the issues at the heart of current orthodontic treatment and practice, giving a comprehensive overview from a global perspective.

"...a comprehensive review of contemporary technological development, biomechanics and handling of orthodonticimplants, miniscrew implants, and miniplates." Reviewed by European Journal of Orthodontics, Feb 2015

"..the first of its kind, as there is currently no published text detailing all of the available orthodontic anchorage devices." Reviewed by G. Wilson on behalf of British Dental Journal, July 2015
