Dental Industry Leaders Unite for Dental Products Report Editorial Advisory Board

Advanstar Dental Media, the leader in delivering the highest value content to the most engaged audience in dentistry, is thrilled to announce the formation of Dental Products Report’s inaugural Editorial Advisory Board.

The formation of the board serves two main purposes: First, it adds an extra layer to ensure the editorial integrity our readers have come to expect. Second, it creates partnerships that allow Dental Products Report to be working side by side with the women and men who are helping to both identify and inspire the trends that impact today’s dental practice.

“Our readers expect Dental Products Report to both inform and lead,” said Kevin Henry, Group Editorial Director for Advanstar Dental Media. “Reporting on new products is about more than just publishing press releases. Our organization believes in creating a context for those product launches so that GPs and dental team members can make the best decision for their practice and patients. The distinguished people on this board will help us continue to live out that mission.”

Lead by Dr. John Flucke – promoted from DPR’s Technology Editor to Chief Dental Editor – the Editorial Advisory Board will work with the DPR editorial team to create content for our leading print publication and website. They will also help curate content from a variety of industry sources, bringing their expertise to bear on multiple levels.

The board includes:

• Dr. John Comisi
• Dr. Lou Shuman
• Dr. Parag Kachalia
• Dr. Bob Mongrain
• Dr. Joe Gian-Grasso
• Dr. Homer Wei Kwok Tso, SBS, BBS, JP
• Dr. Sheri Doniger
• Anastasia Turchetta, RDH
• Tija Hunter, CDA, EFDA
• Lisa Marie Spradley
• Misty Absher Clark
• Glenn Christenson 
• Fred Freedman
• Shaun Keating
• Fern Ingber

“We are honored to have this caliber of talent willing to work with our award-winning internal team,” said John Schwartz, VP for Advanstar Dental Media. “We’ve enjoyed so much success over the last year – relaunching the Dental Practice Management brand, seeing record-setting traffic numbers to dentalproductsreport.com, and more. This is the best possible way to continue the momentum.”
