Orthotown is not just a magazine. Orthotown is an online community
where orthodontic professionals from all across the
world meet to share, read and comment on cases, take continuing
education courses, post and search in the classified ads, network
with others and more. In the magazine you can read a case
or two that you would find in our message boards, but without
being a member of Orthotown.com you are missing out on the
active conversation and camaraderie that takes place on a
minute-by-minute basis. Plus, cases are not the only subject to
be found on our message boards! There are topics ranging from
regulations to retirement, phases to photography, finance to
front office staff and even fantasy football, just to name a few.
Although I am still somewhat new as the Online Community
Manager, I have heard from so many Townies that they do not
know how they ever practiced before joining Orthotown.com. On
Orthotown.com you can gain and give valuable insights, earn CE
credits, seek for employment or employees, and become part of
a family, because Townies are just that - family. If you are not
already a part of our online community at Orthotown.com, we
invite you to join us by creating a free online account today! With
Orthotown, you will never practice alone again.
Meet you on the message boards!
