Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on the Technics and Principles of Dental Orthopedia and Prosthetic Correction of Cleft Palate The present and second edition of this work, which now bases malocclusion upon the dento-occlusal classification, has required a complete rewriting and readjustment of nearly every department. The part which taught the "technic preparation of stock material and instruments," has been eliminated, and in its place the technic construction of appliances in Part V has been greatly enlarged. The work proper now starts with Etiology of Malocclusion, with particular reference to Heredity. As the principles of heredity are founded upon and pertain to the principal laws of biology, an intelligent understanding of the foundation principles of biology seems imperative. The work is not intended as an unabridged treatise upon the various systems employed for the correction of malocclusion, but it is one that is especially designed for teaching the technics and practical principles of correcting dental and dento-facial irregularities in colleges where thorough training is desired. It will also be found convenient and instructive as a reference book in practice. In the presentation of the work, an endeavor has been made to arrange systematically the different branches in the sequence that would develop in the natural demands of training and practice. It commences with the foundation principles of the science, and carries the work through the several progressive stages to the final construction and adjustment of regulating apparatus and retaining appliances. It deals concisely with general and special principles relative to the application of force, diagnosis, classification, causes, treatment, and retention. The description of specific methods of treatment commences with Practical Treatment of Classified Dento-facial Malocclusions in Part VI, with a view to a co-ordinate systematic arrangement especially useful in teaching, and also useful to those who contemplate operations in orthodontia. An important feature of the work is the employment of the half-tone illustrations of cases selected from the author's practice to illustrate from a practical standpoint the three Classes of Dento-facial Deformities and the results of correction. Lengthy and verbose histories of cases, with a detailed account of the successive methods and steps that were pursued, which would in all probability never be the same, even in two apparently similar eases by the same operator, will not be found in this work.
