[Possibilities and aims of the cooperation between pedodontics and orthodontics].

The author indicates some ways that might be practicable for the true co-operation of paedodontics with orthodontics. Such a co-operation is precious above all during advanced education in dentistry, and a suggestion is given for the contents of the training in both specialties. Furthermore, an attempt is made to fix mutual engagements that might serve deliberate co-operation and enable more paedodontists to treat orthodontic cases.
