- Has travelled to all parts of the U.S. and Canada to conduct Ergonomic Practice Assessments.

- Performs recommended interventions, when equipment adjustment or modification has been indicated, or when specialized ergonomic training/retraining has been indicated) in the professional’s own private dental offices, also using sophisticated patient simulation equipment.
