Comprehensive and accessible resource that covers all crucial aspects of dentofacial and occlusal asymmetries

Dentofacial and Occlusal Asymmetries covers all crucial aspects of asymmetries encountered in the stomatognathic region regarding diagnosis, treatment planning, management, and prognosis. Divided into three core sections, the first part focuses on the etiology of asymmetry and whether it is congenital or acquired through disease or trauma. The second and third sections go on to discuss localization and management, providing information on topics such as interception, correction, and camouflage. Specific sample topics covered in the book include:
