Embracing a New Era

Introducing Our Equipment Lending Program!

Modified: March 25, 2016 - 05:47 AM by Robert Gerety

Our mission is to make the Robert G. Gerety Online Comprehensive Orthodontic Education Program available to all general dentists who have an interest in learning orthodontics. We understand that there may be a hesitancy to enroll in an orthodontic course because of the cost of the course coupled with the cost of the instruments and equipment needed to participate in the course. We are offering solutions to both of these roadblocks with a flexible interest-free financing program for the course tuition, and we are now launching our newest option which is a cost free Equipment Lending Program. We now offer an ALL INCLUSIVE ORTHODONTIC PROGRAM!

In an effort to insure that our online orthodontic students have the most beneficial experience and are able to complete the hands-on projects successfully, we have developed an equipment lending program to help achieve these goals. With this program, there is no need to invest in the cost of orthodontic instruments until you determine if orthodontics is truly something you are going to integrate into your practice.

The items available through our Equipment Lending Program are:

ï‚· Cephalometric Tracing Kit

ï‚· Fully Bracketed and Banded Typodont

ï‚· Session One Pliers and Instruments

ï‚· Session Two Pliers and Instruments

ï‚· Session Three Pliers and Instruments

We do not charge our students for borrowing the equipment, but we do ask that the students pay for the shipping and handling. Simply go to our "Product" page and add it to your shopping cart. We will ship the equipment UPS ground and include a return shipping label for your convenience when you return the equipment. While we welcome all of our international students to our online ortho course, we are limiting the Equipment Lending Program to our domestic doctors.

Our Online ortho course has no expiration dates and no deadlines, but we do ask that our students who take advantage of our free equipment lending program return the equipment within 90 days. At the time of enrollment in the Lending Program we will discuss with our student what equipment they will need to borrow and for how long.  We will send a mutually agreed upon Equipment Lending Agreement that details the due date, the replacement cost for items not returned, and the approved use of our equipment. The equipment lending will be based on availability.

Even with the introduction of our Equipment Lending Program, there is still one item that our students would need to complete the bracketing exercise, the Teeth Models. These are the anatomical teeth that are needed to complete Project 1 of the hands-on projects and are critical to the understanding of the importance of correct bracket placement.  Since these are not reusable we couldn't lend them, so we have decided to GIVE them to all students who enroll in the complete 4 session package! Yes, by providing these for free and by arranging the other materials to be borrowed we are now an ALL INCLUSIVE ORTHODONTIC PROGRAM!

Please contact us for further details on the Tuition Payment Plan and on the Equipment Lending Program! The supply of the Teeth Models is limited and this is a limited time offer, take advantage of this while the supplies last!
