Evidence: As often as possible, research from graduate orthodontic students using the author’s diagnostic records directly addresses the question related to the specific subject.
Mechanics: Throughout my 45-year practice of treating more than 15,000 patients with full orthodontic appliances, specific mechanical techniques have been created to address specific issues. These mechanics are explained and demonstrated. More detailed explanations can be found in volume one of this series.
