How fortunate we are to have our wonderful department. And it all started with the people at this table. Alumni of the inaugural class of NSU Orthodontics along with the founding chair, Dr. Meister, were out to dinner as they had a little reunion in South Florida this week. Shout out to Dr. Ragan who travels all the way from Texas each month to come teach and oversee patient care at the program. Back before we had intra-oral scanners, self-ligating brackets, CBCT, or custom printed brackets, we had a few bright young minds under the tutelage of seasoned practitioners with the dream of building a brand new orthodontic residency, the second in the state of Florida.
