The speciality of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics is much more than a cosmetic field in today’s dental practice. The face conscious society needs more than merely movement of teeth to achieve optimal result. Without a basic foundation in prevention, diagnosis and treatment planning for a malocclusion, it becomes a difficult and misguided exercise for which prospective patient will bear the consequence. The advent of functional & orthopaedic appliances brings about skeletal growth modification and dramatically improves the personality of an individual.
