[Possibilities for orthodontic treatment in adults]

Following a discussion on the controversial opinions concerning the orthodontial treatment in adults, as well as on the fact that in many cases the orthodontial treatments in adults are much shorter than in children, the authors present data on eight cases reflecting the possibilities of orthodontial therapy in adults. The authors stress the necessity that the orthodontist should recognize the limitations of such therapy in adults, increasing in this way the possibilities for a successful therapy.
