Features: The book is divided into nine chapters and approximately 300,000 words. It focuses on introducing the structure, manufacturing requirements, and methods of mechanical removable appliances, functional appliances, fixed appliances, and common intraoral and extraoral orthodontic auxiliary devices. Additionally, it elaborates on the basic theories and clinical applications of orthodontic appliances for malocclusion, with an emphasis on "sufficiency" in content. Content that overlaps with basic oral medicine and other oral disciplines is minimized to reflect the vocational characteristics of the textbook. When using this textbook, institutions may selectively omit or adapt content based on their specific circumstances. The textbook includes an internship guide with a total of 14 practical exercises, primarily focusing on the technical fabrication of commonly used orthodontic appliances, providing comprehensive training for students' professional hands-on skills.
