RALPH WALDRON, DD.S. Orthodontia has been generally accepted as that science which treats of the etiology, diagnosis and treatment of the abnormal in the development of the dental and maxillary arches, and of their relation to a symmetrical contour of the face. . This science came into the dental profession as a great benefaction to man- kind, first creeping its way into dentistry in company with prosthetics, or mechani- cal dentistry, as it was called in those days, for orthodontia was then considered simply a mechanical art, but gradually this viewpoint changed.

' The history of orthodontia clearly indicates a progressive tendency toward a better appreciation of the biological nature of the orthodontic problem, for now EL? not only is mechanics considered but also the biological and physiological phenom- ena which are the principal factors that make or mar normal occlusion and its ,QE accompanying face form.

Fortunately this point of view 3 A . has changed, and the tooth is now considered as only a unit of a series.
