Now Introducing...


Wm. Randol Womack, DDS
Editorial Director,
Orthotown Magazine
The most observant subscribers of Orthotown Magazine probably read the October feature article, “CBCT: Clinical Applications in Orthodontics” – an original research/case report from faculty of the orthodontic department at the Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry, University of the Pacific, San Francisco, California. Publishing an article of this quality and relevance from one of the premier orthodontic teaching and research facilities is a testament to the increasing credibility that Orthotown Magazine has established since its inception. We are very appreciative that these distinguished authors chose our venue for its publication.

Now, Orthotown Magazine is very pleased to announce the formation of an Editorial Advisory Board (EAB) whose function will be to assist in the review of future articles that will be submitted for publication. This will establish the “peer review” process that will add to the validity of the information contained in the articles that will appear within the pages of this publication.

Our Editorial Advisory Board provides an excellent mix of academics and orthodontists “in the trenches.” I am pleased to welcome the following professionals to our EAB.
