The MBT 2 Year Program provides a systematic guide, from taking initial records to case completion. The hands on learning I was seeking has actually proved to be more `hand-in-hand’ and has been extremely exciting as I go through my two year journey. I have successfully incorporated the MBT System into my practice, and I am confident this system has improved my diagnosis and treatment of cases. During my thirty years of practice, I have attended numerous courses, meetings, and read hundreds of articles in my pursuit to provide superior orthodontic treatment. The MBT 2 Year Program has truly been invaluable in my quest. John Pryse Jr., D.D.S., P.C.

Doctors McLaughlin and McDonald have a goal to help good orthodontists get better. The result is a 2 year hands on course, combining state of the art Dolphin Imaging diagnostics, evidence based MBT treatment mechanics and paperless office management systems. If you are ready to go “back to school”, this course will change the way you practice orthodontics. David Sabott, D.D.S., M.S.

Why the MBT 2 Year Program? As a young orthodontist – the systems, answers and resources, including the wonderful staff, have proven invaluable. I’m in class with experienced orthodontists willing to be students. It’s the best learning environment I could ask for. Cate Quas, D.D.S., M.S.

A modern orthodontic system relies on systemization and integration of all necessary elements. The MBT System has everything: philosophy, textbooks, educational materials, computer system (Dolphin), systemized diagnosis & treatment mechanics, forum for discussion (large variety of courses) and manufacture & supply of hardware (3M Unitek). Hence it has a brilliant future. All of the above are brought together and presented clearly in the MBT 2 Year Program. Thank you, Rick and Terry! Masatada Koga, D.D.S.

The MBT 2 Year Program is the most meaningful educational experience I have had in a long time. Both Doctors McLaughlin and McDonald are gifted, giving teachers. At the heart of the philosophy are systems designed to produce predictable, quality results. To this end, both the course and the systems are supported beautifully by 3M Unitek, Dolphin Imaging and Great Lakes. I'm looking forward to the remainder of the course! Darrell Van Horn, D.M.D.

After twenty years of practicing orthodontics, I have found the MBT 2 Year Program very refreshing. Rick McLaughlin and Terry McDonald have years of knowledge that they have a deep interest in teaching. They have thoughtfully outlined the literature that establishes our treatment parameters and limitations. Aided by the Dolphin Imaging program, they have devised a complete diagnostic protocol. The MBT bracket system follows from that diagnosis. It has evolved as a system that will help the orthodontist meet their established treatment goals. I have thoroughly enjoyed the course and the organized, thoughtful way the material has been presented. I look forward to our future meetings. Robert Hambleton, D.D.S

The three orthodontists in our office differ widely in training, philosophy, bracket placement and years in practice: myself-36 years, Dr. Julie-20 years and Dr. Cate-2 years. The MBT 2 Year Program provided the foundation, systems and objectivity for us to AGREE! This alone is worth the course investment. And when you consider that Dr. Julie and I are married and Dr. Cate is my oldest daughter ….. the alignment is, as the commercial says, “priceless”.
