We are delighted to announce the relaunch of The Nectar Connection, a network established thirty two years ago with the purpose of fostering collaboration among orthodontic practices. This platform is a space for sharing information, exchanging ideas, brainstorming solutions, and seeking help from fellow professionals. 

Reading past issues is a journey down memory lane. You will see nostalgic posts and ideas that seem primitive in today’s digital age. Some people have retired, and others have passed away, but many are still improving orthodontics every single day. 

Ten years of quarterly magazines are on the Hummingbird website for you to read and enjoy. If you submit an idea it will appear in the next Nectar Connection which will be e-mailed to everyone who participates.  And thus, the Nectar Connection will continue flapping its wings.

First, read through past issues and enjoy. Then, share an idea or a question using the form on the Nectar Connection on this page of the Hummingbird website. Please remember to sign your message with your name, the practice name, city and state, etc. Send as many entries as you wish. Please tell your colleagues and friends so we have lots of entries.

Your quarterly update can be anything you wish it to be--a question about your practice, a tip to cope with OSHA regulations, a practice-building idea that works for you, a particular poem, or a vacation destination we might enjoy.

The Nectar Connection is a free resource. It is our way of saying, “We like to stay connected.”  We will continue to offer it to all Hummingbird clients and friends who participate without any cost.
