Preface

Orthodontic treatment success can be jeopardized by iatrogenic problems created during orthodontic treatment. The most frequent iatrogenic problem is white spot lesions followed by periodontal deterioration and external apical root resorption. This book addresses each of these three iatrogenic problems in individual chapters. Emphasis is given to the orthodontic treatment methods recommended to minimize or prevent these problems from occurring. Mexico
