Editorial Reviews

Review

“A clearly designed book that is generously illustrated – with over 800 colour photographs plus x-rays – is a useful addition to any dental library.” BDA News, April 2009. Vol 22 no 4 “The authors responsible for this well produced and lavishly illustrated book are based in Korea where the use of miniscrews is more widespread, if not in use for longer. The result is a book full of treated cases backed by their hands-on experience, and this gives the text a confident tone.” Orthodontic Update, April 2009
