As many of you remember, Dr. Ackerman and I took great offense to this “ethics” article in the AJODO and made that displeasure known here, here, and here. We believe that this kind of hubris and rampant paternalism is detrimental to the orthodontic speciality in too many ways to count and that it must be opposed. Well Dr. Ackerman took it one step further and wrote a letter to the editor that was recently published. Well done sir!
