American Association of Endodontists launches new website
Sept. 5, 2013
A new website from the American Association of Endodontists makes it easy for dental professionals and patients to get the information they need. Visitors can navigate to clinical information about treatment planning and regenerative endodontics, or patient education on dental symptoms and a step-by-step explanation of a root canal procedure. And thanks to the website’s new responsive design, a simple click of a button or tap of a finger gets visitors where they need to be.RELATED |Americans fear losing teeth more than getting flu or root canal “More frequently, people are accessing information on the go, and in the first six months of the year, more than one-quarter of visitors to the AAE website used a mobile device,” said AAE President Dr. Gary R. Hartwell. “Responsive design gives our visitors the best possible user experience whether they’re using a desktop computer, tablet, or smartphone.”RELATED |Don't tick off your endodontist -- 3 simple rules to make everyone's life easier!
