Diagnostic Tools for the Modern Clinician
Volume 49 : Number 11 : Page 681 : Nov 2015
New computer applications for the practice of clinical orthodontics - long a recurring theme in the pages of this journal - continue to amaze me. Although I jumped on the practice-management bandwagon early on, giving up my beloved pegboard accounting systems shortly after the first orthodontic computer software became available in the late 1980s and '90s, it took many more years before I finally gave in and adopted the programs designed to assist in performing cephalometric analysis, diagnosis, and treatment planning. I still have my tracing box, mechanical pencils, and cephalometric protractor, along with about a quarter-ton of tracing acetate, but these wonderful old tools have been relegated to the curiosity box. I confess to occasionally taking them out of the closet and doing a case workup the old-fashioned way, if for no other reason than mere nostalgia - much like the enjoyment I derive from driving a horse-drawn carriage now and then. In the modern age, though, computerized tracing and analysis have long since replaced the old manual diagnostic workhorses. In fact, given the development of intraoral scanners and virtual models, we don't even need our dental stone casts any longer. They still make excellent paperweights and conversation pieces, but there is no need to use them for orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning.

Volume 51 : Number 1 : Page 0 : Jan 2017
On a recent shopping trip to a large department store, my wife and I noticed a Wi-Fi-enabled Crock-Pot. Given that my wife was a busy teacher and elementary-school administrator and I was a busy orthodontist while we raised a large family, Crock-Pot cookery has been a mainstay of our household, allowing us to have hot, nutritious meals ready when we got home from work. But we were both a little puzzled as to why any Crock-Pot would need Wi-Fi capability. On closer investigation, we found that the Wi-Fi allows the user to monitor and control the cooking vessel from miles away, using a smartphone. It made me realize just how far into the digital age we are.
