We have just completed the first year of our Gerety Ortho Study Group in Dallas and have had a wonderful time and have enjoyed the study group format immensely. All three sessions have been very productive with a blend of lectures, hands-on exercises, case review sessions and dynamic group discussions. The personal interaction among the participants has been so fulfilling to watch develop. We began the Gerety Orthodontic Study Group with a mission to enhance and nurture the development of our students orthodontic education. We felt that the Ortho Study Group meetings would provide the opportunity to review treatment planning and treatment mechanics, to troubleshoot cases in treatment, and to individually address case finishing concerns. It has also been important to us to carry on the orthodontic teachings of Dr Bob Gerety who became one of the most respected instructors and clinicians in the industry. The Gerety ortho courses have been based on straight wire mechanics and the principles and theories developed by Big Bob and can now be carried on by his students sharing their experiences with others who have the desire to learn orthodontics. The structure for our Study Group followed the basic outline of our extended ortho ...

Gerety Orthodontic Seminars celebrates its First Birthday It is so hard to believe that it has been one year since we launched our orthodontic website at the Gerety All Class Reunion in Dallas. Our original goal for the website was to preserve and present the clinical documentation and the teaching materials that Big Bob Gerety devoted his career developing. We wanted to continue sharing his work with his students so that we can insure the material will be available to all who desire to further their own orthodontic education. Our original thought was to use our ortho website to present Bob s cases, and have we every exceeded those expectations This year has been filled with accomplishments for us, the grandest being the completion of our Online Comprehensive Ortho Course.

Thanks to all of our attendees for making the first Gerety All Class Reunion such a special occasion for Bob and myself. Also, a heartfelt "thank you" for embracing our son Grant who has joined our teaching team.

All of the drawing prizes were contributed by our sponsors,Straight Wire Seminars, Ortho Organizers, John's Dental Lab, Space Maintaner's of the Midwest and Dolphin Imaging. None of this would have been possible without their support.

Did you know that it is recommended by The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry that parents schedule a dental appointment for their child with the eruption of their first primary tooth and no later than their first birthday Routine Dental Checkup for Kids: Pediatric dentists specialize not only in carefully examining your child s teeth, but also in removing any plaque by brushing or polishing then applying a topical fluoride treatment to strengthen the enamel. If the occlusal surfaces of posterior teeth contain hard-to-clean areas, then the application of sealants might be recommended to protect these teeth and prevent decay. Preventive Dentistry: Pediatric dentists are trained in methods that promote a child s awareness of proper brushing and flossing techniques. This helps to make them aware at an early age of the benefits of a healthy mouth and a beautiful smile. It is not uncommon for a very young child to have extensive tooth decay, and this will necessitate a treatment plan and course of action to discuss with the parent. Scheduling Regular Dental Checkups: The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that parents schedule regular six-month dental checkups for their child; however, more frequent or fewer visits may be ...
