The second purpose of the list is to serve as a platform for free discussion. A professional forum for dentists, dental hygienists, dental technicians, dental assistants, dental students and health professionals to promote conversation regarding dentistry among those directly involved with patient care. Discussion group for clinical, educational, and research issues in dental informatics and information technology in dentistry. Intended for the free exchange of information and ideas among orthodontists in the U.S. and world-wide. A service of the Academic Computing Service of the Ohio State University and College of Dentistry.
Membership is generally to be limited to the above identified individuals.
The Listserv is not designed for the general public or the dental community at large at this time. Among its offerings are forums on various dental specialties, Internet e-mail, free dental classified ads, a library of dental resources and listings of continuing education. Dentists, hygienists, researchers and others in the field are invited to make use of this resource. No special software is needed though the system looks best if your software supports ANSI colors and IBM graphics characters. The Bridge offers several off-line readers for download in the software libraries.
