About the Book

Biological Mechanisms of Tooth Movement is the comprehensive reference for trainees and specialists to the scientific background of orthodontics and more specifically, the biological responses to the application of mechanical loads. Written by an international team of expert contributors and highly illustrated throughout, this book covers key topics including bone biology, the effects of mechanical loading on tissues and cells, genetics, inflammation, tissue remodeling and the effects of diet, drugs and systemic diseases.

Review :
"A classic reference book … .This large-format hardback textbook is well designed and illustrated throughout. I enjoyed every single page of the book and consider it as a real treat. … Highly recommended." (The European Journal of Orthodontics, December 2009) "The two editors, with 17 contributing experts in their respective fields, have produced a most authoritative text on the biological mechanisms involved in the movement of teeth." (American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics)
