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.

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.
