Letter from the Editor Thomas Chubb, DDS Editor-In-Chief of RWISO Journal 4 Dr. Thomas Chubb | Letter from the Editor I would first like to thank all the authors in this year’s Journal for the amount of time and energy they devoted to giving us another first class issue. They are the lifeblood of the RWISO Journal. I know the authors would be interested in your feedback. Their e-mail addresses are listed on their articles, so please contact them with any comments you might have. I apologize to any author whose submission did not make it into this issue. We are already working on the next issue, which we hope will come out between now and the next meeting. I would like to thank Anne Evers, our managing editor, and Irene Elmer, our copy editor, for all their hard work and professionalism. Many of the authors have felt the sting of Irene’s sharp pen and the exacting revisions they both required. Their many hours of hard work were needed to bring this issue to fruition. I would also like to thank all our sponsors who contributed generously to help publish this issue and to Jeff Milde for all his logistical support. After reading the reports from the Roth Williams regional directors, I was struck by the level of involvement in education to which this group has devoted itself. Unfortunately, we meet only once a year to reconnect with our far-flung colleagues to reinvigorate and recommit ourselves. I see the RWISO Journal as having a vital function in sharing information for those members who attend the annual meeting and, more importantly, for those who cannot. It gives us something to hand to our non-Roth Williams orthodontists and dental colleges to show the type of research and clinical results that is being produced. The articles is this issue are diverse and some are groundbreaking. You will note this issue of the Journal is mostly articles with only one case report. Oddly, we have had very few case reports submitted. My feeling is that the RWISO Journal needs a better balance of articles and case reports. Over the years I have seen many outstanding cases presented at the RWISO meetings. One of the strengths of our group has always been in showing well-treated cases with beautiful finishes. However, more importantly, these cases have one more thing in common: stable joints with good function of the teeth and joints. And how do we know this? We know because we evaluate our results with the use of centrically mounted models, condylar recording systems, and TMJ scans. I believe it is the documentation of our orthodontic cases that defines our group. Any journal can show a pretty orthodontic finish. It is another thing to show all the records, the treatment planning, and then the clinical execution and a measured outcome of a challenging case. Since this Journal will be seen by many non-Roth Williams orthodontists, I think it is critical we show more of our clinical orthodontic work in this journal. I hope to see this Journal grow and become a vital part of our organization as it is a reflection of who we are and what we believe in. Thomas Chubb, DDS Editor-in-Chief tkchubb1@earthlink.net
News from the Roth Williams Teaching Centers ARGENTINA We are pleased to announce that in May of this year we began the Roth Williams FACE (The Foundation for Advanced Continuing Education) Course in cooperation with the Catholic University of Argentina. Dr. Oscar Palmas, Dr. Guillermo Ochoa and Dr. Eduardo Rubio (surgeon) were he instructors for this course. They had the honor of working alongside Dr. Domingo Martin and Dr. Jorge Ayala. The highlight was a lecture given by Dr. Martin on interdisciplinary treatment. Many feeder courses were developed this year in different provinces, including Salta, Jujuy, Rio Gallegos and Santiago del Estero. More than 300 hundred students were taught about the Roth Williams philosophy. In September 2011, Dr. Jorge Ayala will give a feeder course entitled “Biomechanical Treatment in Roth Philosophy.” For next year we are planning a Roth Williams FACE national meeting in Jujuy, an Argentinean province. The Roth Williams Center Argentina will participate in the Mendoza Society Orthodontic Meeting in September. Dr. Oscar Palmas will give a lecture on self-ligation and micro-screw in Roth Philosophy. We are very happy to see the poster contributions for the Rome meeting from our Roth Williams students. We would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate the Journal on its second issue. We encourage you all to continue working!! Dr. Oscar Palmas Director, Roth Williams Center Argentina BRAZIL The Brazilian Center began a new CCO group in June 2009. It has attracted students from the northwest to the southwest of Brazil. Dr. Fantini has been traveling to various places in Brazil to spread the Roth Philosophy. She has been teaching courses and has even lectured at an advanced-level specialization course, where her talks about the Philosophy have become a tradition. In October 2010, the SPO meeting, which is the most important meeting in Latin America, will take place in Brazil. Dr. Fantini will speak on Roth’s Philosophy: multidisciplinary treatment of skeletal class II malocclusion with bilateral condylar degeneration and generalized root resorption. Since 2009 four abstracts have been published in conference proceedings, three articles have been accepted in orthodontic magazines, and two book chapters have been dedicated to the Roth Philosophy. Dr. Fantini has participated in 10 MA, PhD, and qualifying examinations as an examiner, enhancing the concepts of the Roth Philosophy. For a complete list of the articles and abstracts, please contact the RWISO office. The study group founded in the beginning of 2008 remains active with reunions every 2 months. We believe we have found an interesting formula to deepen the knowledge of those who took the CCOs. At each group meeting, our program includes 3 activities—a participant presentation on a given theme, a clinical case presentation and discussion, and a talk on a new topic of current interest. This format has made the study group very popular. We plan to start a new CCO group in June 2011. Finally, we are considering organizing a memorial meeting for all South America in São Paulo in November 2010. Dra. Marisa Gianesella Bertolaccini Director, Roth Williams Center Brazil CHILE As is traditional, our educational activities have remained very active through continuing courses, 2- or 3-day courses, and participation in various meetings. We are currently offering long-term courses in Mexico (two), Argentina, Paraguay, and Chile with a total of 170 students. In 2009 thru 2010 we held 34 courses. In 2010 we will offer two new continuing courses, one in Michoacán, México, and the other one at the Universidad de Tucumán, Argentina. A course in Brazil, to be held in collaboration with Dr. Solange Fantini, is also being organized. Drs. Jorge Ayala and Gonzalo Gutierrez Directors, Roth Williams Center Chile JAPAN We are pleased to announce that we now have 45 members. Members are doctors who have graduated from the 2-year course and have also presented cases with stable and repeatable jaw position. Each year we hold an annual meeting where each participant shows his/her cases treated according to the Roth philosophy. Along with the annual meeting, we are now preparing for the 15th anniversary meeting in Tokyo on November 28-29. This meeting is open to all interested doctors. We are expecting a great attendance. We of course welcome RWISO members from all over the world. The ninth 2-year course is steadily ongoing and session 5 was held for 5 days in June, and featured Dr. Jorge Ayala from Chile as a special instructor. The 14th basic course will be held in the fall.
