Dr. Fisher shares his journey, from overcoming dyslexia and ADD to becoming a pioneer in the use of temporary skeletal anchorage devices (TSADs) and CBCT imaging for orthodontic diagnosis and treatment. \n \nThe discussion dives into various topics, including the future of orthodontic education, the necessity of early intervention, the use of 3D imaging, evidence-based practice, and the importance of addressing the why in orthodontics. Dr. Fisher emphasizes the need for the orthodontic community to adopt new technologies and approaches to truly improve patients' health, rather than just straightening teeth.\n \n00:27 Meet Dr. Jack Fisher: Orthodontic Pioneer\n02:56 Dr. Fisher's Early Life and Challenges\n05:14 The Journey to Orthodontics\n08:23 Innovations in Orthodontics\n12:34 The Importance of CBCT Imaging\n16:44 Orthodontic Education and Challenges\n24:55 The Future of Orthodontics\n40:28 The Financial Realities of Orthodontic Practice\n40:45 Critique of Orthodontic Organizations\n41:43 Orthodontic Residency Programs and Their Shortcomings\n43:24 The Importance of CBCT in Orthodontics\n45:28 Aligners and Their Limitations\n48:08 The Role of Early Intervention in Orthodontics\n49:32 Challenges in Orthodontic Research and Evidence-Based Practice\n53:04 The Future of Orthodontics and Patient Care\n59:38 The Importance of Nasal Breathing in Orthodontics\n01:12:10 Concluding Thoughts and Call to Action\n \nLINKS:\nDr. Mike’s Orthotown Articles: \n-Part I: https://www.nxtbook.com/farran/orthotown/orthotown-march-2025/index.php?startpage=36#/p/34\n-Part II: https://www.orthotown.com/magazine/article/9575/beyond-osapart-2\nSleep Breathe and Thrive: https://www.drshereenlim.com.au/book/\nHoward Stupak’s Book: https://a.co/d/iPD8SUt\nContact Dr. Fisher:  Jack.fisher@mac.com","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/Wf6VIMhB_ulpfJzsJlix0BOF0i4W9yk8xxJ6-5X1Y6E/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQxOTI3LzE2OTg2/MzExNDktYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
