CELLERANT INVITES INNOVATORS TO SUBMIT FOR THE 2019 BEST OF CLASS AWARD
Dentistry’s Premier Award
Announces an Additional Submission Process for Dental Industry Companies
WASHINGTON, D.C., November 15, 2018 — Now entering its second decade, the Cellerant Best of Class
Technology Awards are getting their own upgrade. The awards’ sponsor, Cellerant
Consulting Group, has introduced an additional process for dental companies to
nominate their innovative products and services for consideration.
Created in 2009 by
Dr. Lou Shuman, the Cellerant Best of Class Technology Awards recognize and
honor products and services that lead the way in dentistry. “Staying abreast of
technology is a significant undertaking and an important responsibility,” says
Dr. Shuman. “The Best of Class now occupies a unique and highly visible role in
the dental community as an unbiased guide for important practice purchase
decisions. Adding the open submission process to our existing year-round panel
research will ensure that the Best of Class deliberations remain
comprehensive.”
The awards process is
currently based on the year-long research and evaluation efforts of its panel
of dental technology experts. For the 2019 award, dental industry manufacturers
and service providers can now nominate their technologies for consideration at www.cellerantconsulting.com.
The simple process involves completing the Best of Class submission form
online.
“With new
technologies coming at a faster pace than ever, the open submission process
assures that our panel will have maximum exposure to the most innovative
products in dentistry,” said Dr. John Flucke.
For this year, the
submission window will be open from November 2018 through February 1, 2019. The
Best of Class panel members — Dr. Paul Feuerstein, Dr. John Flucke, Dr. Marty
Jablow, Dr. Maragliano-Muniz, Dr. Chris Salierno, and Dr. Lou Shuman — have
been evaluating technologies throughout the award year and will be voting at
the 2019 Chicago Midwinter Meeting. In the fall, the winning technologies will
be on display at the American Dental Association Annual Meeting. They are then
recognized at an official VIP reception and awards ceremony.
