In today’s orthodontic practice, early recognition and interception of malocclusions is not only an advantage—it’s a necessity.
One of the most comprehensive and clinically practical resources available in this field is the second edition of Recognizing and Correcting Developing Malocclusions: A Problem-Oriented Approach to Orthodontics by renowned orthodontist Eustáquio A. Araújo.
This richly illustrated textbook presents a problem-oriented, evidence-based approach that simplifies the decision-making process in identifying and managing developing malocclusions in young patients.
The second edition enhances the first with expanded content, updated protocols, and refined clinical strategies, making it a must-have for every orthodontist, pediatric dentist, and general practitioner involved in early interceptive care.
