2017 ABO CRE Cast Radiograph Evaluation by Chris, Angle Lee Part 2｜CC406

Abstract
The American Broad of Orthodontics (ABO) developed and officially initiated the use of Cast-Radiograph Evaluation (CRE) as an objective grading system for scoring post-treatment case records. According to measurements from dental casts and radiographs, the CRE is an objective method of self-evaluation that helps elevate the quality of orthodontic care, and the eight criteria in the CRE help doctors make detailing treatment plan before debonding the braces. CRE has been used as a detailing treatment plan tool and one of the training programs for training doctors in the Beethoven Orthodontic Center since 2010.
摘要
美國矯正學會 American Broad of Orthodontics (ABO) 制定的 Cast-Radiograph Evaluation (CRE) 為一針對治療後的結果做客觀性的計量評估。CRE根據治療後的牙齒模型以及放射線影像為評估依據給分，可以作為醫師自我評量矯正治療品質的工具，其中的八項標準更能進一步使用來協助醫師制訂拆矯正器前的矯正完工治療計畫。貝多芬矯正中心自2010年開始以 CRE 做為完工治療計畫的評估工具，並且列為醫師訓練內容。
Automation: The top secret of highly effective people
As yet another edition of IJOI is almost ready for publication, I have often been asked just how do we manage it? How are we able to handle our time and maintain a healthy work-life balance, when our hands are so full with clinical work, teaching and research? Just what is the formula for this? Our clinic handles a huge amount of patients, we manage to publish a lot of research projects and we also host workshops for international doctors and have, with over 400 presentations on CZcams, the biggest forum of teaching material in the history of Orthodontics. And as you are reading this, you are also aware that we publish a quarterly journal containing comprehensive coverage of a selection of our clinical cases, which are therefore available for teaching and further research.
All of us are equal in that we all only have 24 hours a day; entrepreneurs such as Warren Buffett and Steve Jobs started with nothing and earned their fortune, with no more hours in a day than we have.
They have used a formula, which is divided into things one loves or hates; these can be further divided into things one has to do and doesn’t have to do. Obviously, the things one loves, one focuses on and the things one hates and doesn’t have to do, are eliminated. The things one dislikes, but has to do, are automated.
Automation is very important when running any kind of business. Our research and journal are both automated, even though I actually like researching and publishing, but I only have 24 hours a day, so this means I have no other choice! As you all know, clinical work (although very enjoyable) can also be automated, so all three aspects of our work, clinical, teaching and research are actually automated, therefore our professional life is automated!
This means that we have actually improved upon the original formula, as we are able to focus on and also automate the things which we love, which results in our being able to work, enjoy the fruits of our labor and have a very good work-life balance.
I hope that you will join us and enjoy marching along the path to glory in fully- automated fashion!
