Business Editors

VANCOUVER, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 13, 2000

Dentistry Online, Inc., the first source in dental information, and the leading provider of dental content worldwide, announced the release of its online information brochures, the Dental Health Guides. The addition of the Dental Health Guides to DentistryOnline.com's collection of dental content extends the company's position as the leader in dental patient education content.

 Guides."

The Dental Health Guides are a convenient and cost-effective way for dentists to distribute targeted health messages to their patients online, on an as-needed basis. "The old-fashioned, printed type of brochures can be cumbersome," says Rondeau. "Dental practices purchase large quantities on general topics to save on costs--and then the brochures sit around in the brochure rack or in the back room. With the Dental Health Guides, doctors can have confidence that the information is constantly updated, and they can print the Guides from their computer, e-mail them to patients, or post them on their site. And they can choose from a variety of topics."

The Dental Health Guides are based on CAESY, the world's leading patient education program for dental practices. There are currently nearly 100 topics covered, with more being added every day, making this the most complete collection of online dental health brochures ever compiled. The Guides cover subjects ranging from crowns and bridges to periodontal disease Periodontal Disease Definition
