You are invited to view the airing of a BCAT 56 minute Special, Wednesday June 25, 11:30 AM on TWC Ch 34/67; Excerpts from the film will be presented to colleagues at the American Association of Orthodontists meeting in Boston, May 2009. 

The purpose of the film is to familiarize fellow professionals with Orthodontic Jaw Wiring a device and method to help carefully selected overweight persons regain control of their compulsive overeating.

Obesity is legion and epidemic and recognized as a precursor to a host of serious illnesses. OJW for obesity is a treatment modality for a serious "social, psychological and physiological problem that can help carefully selected patients to regain control of their weight thereby reducing or preventing the potentially grave consequences associated with obesity. I am exploring the "orthodontic" approach to help alleviate this epidemic in those cases where it may be applicable. I think dental professionals can deliver this service with compassion and intelligence. My experience to date is that it is safe, and reasonably effective when performed with the proper protocols that I have developed.
