Orthodontics

In most languages, this is the normal word used to describe the field of orhodontics, although in Germany during the 1930’s, it was replaced by the term “Dento-facial Orthopaedics”. This renaming can only be understood within the context of the euphoria which resulted from the introduction of the so-called Functional Orthodontics in Germany in the 1930’s. When Functional Orthodontics did not exactly turn out to be the great saviour, our specialism was once again given its correct name – i.e. ‘orthodontics’.
