Evidence Based Orthodontics

ORT 704 Subject & Catalog Number

Description

Preparing the residents for Written American Board of Orthodontics exam. The objective of this reading list is to offer the practicing orthodontist a list of references, which may serve as a source of knowledge in preparing for certification. This reading list includes papers of historical as well as scientific interest. It is intended to give the orthodontist a broad perspective of the changing world of orthodontic theory and practice. Several articles by ABO directors are also included so the candidates may have some insight into their background and current interests. It should be clearly understood that a bibliography, such as this, is not all encompassing and does not remain static. It will be continuously subject to additions and deletions. Current literature and textbooks on orthodontics may be studied in addition to the suggested references. The American Board of Orthodontics does not consider any of the texts and/or articles to contain the indisputable answer to any questions within the field of orthodontics. Examinees are responsible for the content of the entire reading list, even though some references may not be represented by an exam question.
