Excerpt from Practical Orthodontia
Occlusion being the basis of orthodontia, much space has been devoted to the different forces of occlusion, and there has also been added a table giving the occlusion Of each of the inclined planes Of the teeth.
Classification has been based on the mesio-distal rela tion of the teeth, and since Angle 's plan Of nomenclature appears to be the one most universally used, it has been adhered to. Under classification certain types have been included which are so different as to require a different technique in treatment.
Causes of malocclusion have been taken up under differ ent headings and described.
Under appliances, the author has confined his discus sion to those which have proven their worth and which he believes will be successful in the greatest number of cases. The principles of retention have been carefully explained, for undoubtedly much unnecessary trouble has resulted in the past by not taking into consideration the principles involved.
