Top Townie Picks: Equipment

Dentaltown Magazine

Townies discuss which items they consistently reach for, and why


Each year, we publish the results of the orthodontic Townie Choice Awards in our January/February issue to give our readers the latest info about the products and services that their fellow Townies have named the best in the industry.

But while the TCAs are awarded based on ballot tallies, they include no room for voters to discuss why certain products or services are their favorites. So we went in search of Townie opinions: Which items are their go-to products, and why? Some orthodontists discussed their favorites in message boards posted on Orthotown.com, and we pulled other answers from Townies who were featured in recent Office Visit profiles.

In this issue, we discuss the digital tools for collecting orthodontic information and creating in-office applicances: intraoral scanners, pan/ceph machines and 3D printers. Perhaps not surprisingly, some picks happened to match up with this year’s Townie Choice Awards winners, which we’ve indicated.

(Our final installation of the Top Townie Picks series, which will run in our October issue, will focus on software and technology.)
