About FORCE
FORCE is a not-for-profit 501c3 corporation - founded in 2017 by Dr. Laurance Jerrold - whose purpose is to create a practice based network of doctors across the country and subsidizing the research efforts of Orthondontic residents when possible.
FORCE is built upon the coordination and collaboration of two key roles - Fellows and Residents; each playing a critical role in creating - and maintaining - a robust resource for the continued betterment of Orthodontics.
FELLOWS
Comprised of orthodontic professionals from The United States and Canda, FORCE Fellows provide not only financial contributions, but serve as the source - through up-to-date profile information and surveys - of data that serves as a meaningful cross sectional depiction of clinical orthodontics.
RESIDENTS
These are the members of postgraduate orthodontic training programs who are required to complete research projects in order to graduate. FORCE provides a rich repository of data to assist in these efforts and in turn cultivate future fellows.
Together these two groups - Fellows and Residents - are a force for modern orthodontics.
