- Writing ‒ the key to orthodontic thinking
Most people agree that orthodontics is a thinking game. As Warren Buffet said, “There is nothing better to get your thoughts straight than writing.” Therefore following his logic, the best way to train doctors of the young generations is by writing. In my opinion, if there were to be any shortcut to training doctors, that shortcut would be case report writing.
I started to learn and appreciate this idea 12 years ago at the 2009 AAO meeting. My Orthodontic Grandfather, Dr. Charlie Burstone, had listened to my lecture on impaction, and I could tell he liked the new approach which I had addressed in that meeting. From then on, our relationship became closer until one day I asked him a question, to which he gave a short but not sweet answer ‒ This issue has been documented.
I learnt two things that day. The first was to read and understand published articles, and with that I realized the importance of documenting things. The second was about keeping a distance to retain respect from students. I think Charlie probably learnt this from Dr. Angle, who was well-known for keeping a distance from his students and for his poker face! This, due to my personality, I find very difficult to do, which means that I will never reach the prolific status achieved by Dr. Angle and Dr. Burstone!
In Beethoven, we always emphasize the importance of documentation, and we encourage our new doctors to study, report on, present, and write case reports. It has proven to be very successful. I am very proud that two rookies, Drs. Lily and Vicky, have successfully published their first case reports in this issue, under the guidance of their personal coach, Dr. Bear Chen, who not so long ago was himself a rookie but has now finished his tenth publication and became an iAOI Ambassador. Congratulations to the three of them. Also contributing to this issue were Dr. Joy Cheng's report on a two-phase clear aligner therapy. I hope this article will impact you as much as we impacted Charlie Burstone 12 years ago.
Our Taiwanese lifestyle series continues with a special report on birdwatching and how a small investment can yield a marvelous return of enormous pleasure, without having to travel anywhere and waste time in the hope of spotting any of our feathered friends.
I hope this ornithological distraction won’t cause any deviations as we continue along our path to glory.
Stay well and keep safe.
Please tell us the background music.😃
Can you tell us the reason why you changed from a fixed appliance to clear aligners in this case?
There's limitations for clear aligners. Which done by fixed ones.
