This book is designed to meet the needs of all orthodontists interested in treating children, adolescents, and/or adults with brackets placed on the palatal and lingual surfaces of the teeth. It explains how to achieve excellent results, comparable to those obtained with labial brackets, by means of techniques performed entirely within the dental office and avoiding use of expensive outside laboratories. The book is divided into three parts. The first is devoted to biomechanics, considering each type of malocclusion and describing how to prepare the arches optimally. This is not a theoretical section; rather it covers aspects acknowledged to be of prime practical importance by students and doctors. The second part explains how to treat the most common malocclusions, with step-by-step descriptions of techniques used in everyday clinical practice. The concluding part of the book describes finishing procedures to enhance aesthetics and discusses long-term results.

Correct tooth position is an important factor for esthetics, function and for overall preservation or restoration of dental health. Many individuals would like to have the benefits offered by high-quality orthodontic treatment, but do not want to have braces that are visible to their friends and colleagues. Invisible (lingual) orthodontics represents the only solution that does not impair the patient from an esthetic point of view. Many patients if given the choice opt for an appliance that is not visible, provided the course of treatment and the quality of the results are the same as with a conventional treatment. Lingual orthodontics thus represents the best solution for meeting the needs of patients without the risk of damaging biomechanical efficiency. This service offered in the private orthodontic offices allows the patient several treatment options, and provides the orthodontist with a competitive advantage over colleagues not offering the option of lingual appliances.

Like it or not, we live in a beauty conscious society. The advertising community has always pushed the idea that 'beautiful is better'. Esthetics is now a catchword among people. Self improvement is no longer the domain of the rich and the famous. Nor is it considered a sign of self - indulgence or vanity. Quite contrary, taking steps to improve one's appearance today is considered an investment in health and well being, and it is as socially acceptable as personally gratifying.With their ever increasing awareness about the need to look good (read normal) "at all times", even a speciality like orthodontics which had traditionally given more importance to treatment objectives than anything else had to rethink its approach towards such patients.Gone are those days when alignment of teeth was considered a treatment only for children and adolescents. With more and more adults opting for orthodontic treatment, these adults have special esthetic demand as regards their orthodontics treatment and don't want visible braces and Lingual Orthodontics caters to this segment. This book is an overview of various aspects of Lingual Orthodontic treatment.
