Exciting news has hit the Dentalworkers.com Web site! Dentists who want to become accredited by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry can now get "Intelligent User Guides" written specifically for the AACD digital protocol. To become an accredited cosmetic dentist, doctors must adhere to the "Digital Clinical Case Submission Procedures" being circulated on the AACD Web page.
The "Intelligent User Guides" help doctors complete the digital protocol with easy step-by-step instructions on how to digitally process dental cases and submit them to the AACD. The guides depict the process using either PhotoShop Elements 4.0 or ThumbsPlus 7.0. Ward Allen, a digital imaging expert with almost 20 years experience, has achieved success by depicting the entire digital process in printed guides using large computer screen illustrations, enlarged bold fonts, and visual indicators of how and what to do on a computer in sequential "AACD" order.
The guides cover software installation, file conversion and picture correction, PowerPoint, and the creation of C's specific to the AACD digital protocol. These and other "Intelligent User Guides" are available from Norman Camera, 800-900-6676, or PhotoMed International, 800-998-7765.
Beyond the digital dental realm, Allen has created SDFI™, "Secure Digital Forensic Imaging." This uses high-resolution digital cameras similar to those used in dental offices, advanced image management software, military grade encryption, and a secure file portal to move forensic medical pictures directly to law enforcement and the district attorney's office. SDFI forensic digital images are used in court and described as "Secure Beyond a Reasonable Doubt!"
Allen has worked with many groups, has written guides, and has presented to dental societies, dental study clubs, district attorney's offices, law enforcement, lawyers, firefighters and hospitals all across the country.
Allen will be speaking at the annual Boston Yankee Dental in January 2007, and at the annual AACD meeting in May 2007 with Dr. Brett B. Magnuson, DMD.
