ABSTRACT
One of the most effective strategies the dentist can employ to simplify treatment and enhance overall results is orthodontic intervention. Obviously, many patients present with malocclusion as their chief complaint, and comprehensive orthodontic treatment is indicated. Many more patients can benefit from orthodontic treatment, whether it is single tooth crossbite correction, uprighting of tipped abutments, or even fairly comprehensive treatment, and whether performed by a specialist
or a general practitioner in the course of overall dental care.
