NEWSFLASH for Ortho residents

SDN Members don't see this ad.
Over the past couple of years we've started receiving letters from residents all over the country saying something similar to, "I'm graduating in _____ and will be moving to Texas. Do you know of any opportunities?"

I've talked to the reps down here and they've noticed the same thing - everyone seems to think there are orthodontic patients coming out the nose in Texas.

Guess what...the metro areas in Texas are actually over-saturated with orthodontists.

You just need to know this coming in. If you're really interested in moving here because you love the area, etc. and just can't live anywhere else by all means come on down. You'll be accepted with open arms. But, if you just assume there are a ton of opportunities down here (at least in the metro areas) please do some research before moving your families across the country.

For the current residents...is this the perception out there? Do people really think Texas is plump full of patients without enough orthodontists to treat them?

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.

While we would love to have you in Texas, sometimes the jobs are hard. Make sure you have lined up before moving down!
