I find it interesting the only parties informing us that the product works and that dentist's will buy and use it are the company and individuals with a financial stake in the company. All of my due diligence suggests otherwise. I have yet to speak with a single dentist who is impressed with the product and plans on using it. I have yet to see a single independent piece of journalism endorsing the Wand and proclaiming it more effective than the traditional methods used in the dental industry. It certainly seems odd to me that there have been no replies from verifiable dentists on this investment board certifying the claims made by company officials and individuals with a financial interest pertaining to the long-term viability of the Wand. Having examined the item myself (granted I'm not a mechanical engineer) I find it very doubtful there was significant research and development expended on the design of this product. We shall see how many units are sold in the June quarter. I do find it interesting that the company and it's investors are already discussing other potential markets for the Wand only a couple of months after it's launch in the dental industry. Could it be because sales to dentists are already petering out? Only time will tell.

Good Luck
