BOOK REVIEWS
Volume 50 : Number 3 : Page 0 : Mar 2016
The best way to learn orthodontics outside of clinical experience is to critically review case reports. Case-based review is the foundation of orthodontic residency education, and it is precisely the method used in this book by Drs. Thomas Southard, Steven Marshall, and Laura Bonner.
