Uses of the Vertical Slot in Orthodontic Brackets
Volume 49 : Number 9 : Page 574 : Sep 2015
Many orthodontists have discovered the utility of a simple, vertically positioned square hole in an orthodontic bracket. The vertical slot, or V-slot, permits the simple addition of a variety of useful auxiliaries and biomechanical adjuncts. As Gianelly once said in a personal communication, "I don't understand why you wouldn't want a vertical slot in your bracket, whatever bracket you choose; it's free."

JCO INTERVIEWS
Mr. Joseph Hogan on Align Technology
Volume 51 : Number 2 : Page 0 : Feb 2017
DR. KEIM To start off, Joe, is there anything you would particularly like to bring to the attention of JCO readers? MR. HOGAN I'd just like them to understand our position regarding the support that we have for orthodontists, and how we believe in the community. I believe there has been a lot of controversy in the past in the sense of our support of GPs vs. our support of orthodontists. I don't want your readers to have any kind of concern regarding how we view the orthodontic community. Our commitment to it is really important. Secondly, they're probably uncomfortable with me. They knew the former CEO of Align Technology, Tom Prescott, for several years. I think without being exposed to someone for very long, you fill your own vacuum in a sense of who this guy is, and I want them to be comfortable with me. I carry on Tom's legacy, and I see the company in a lot of the ways that Tom did.
