D Magazine’s confidential poll was sent to more than 1,000 local dentists, asking them to recommend their peers in each specialty. We also made the ballot available online so those not included in our original survey could vote. Only dentists with a valid dental license were eligible. Finally, an esteemed panel of dentists, representing a range of specialities, reviewed the final list.
We then turned the list over to our sales team. They cannot add to or subtract from the list, but they can sell ads to the winners. A special advertising section containing all the winners who purchase ads is then put together and displayed somewhere else in this magazine.
We admit the specialities we included may be broad in some instances. Also, if you have a dentist you like and trust, and his or her name is not on this list, we recommend you stick with your D.D.S. You may see his or her name on our next list of the Best Dentists in Dallas.
The ruling was the first victory for the multilevel marketing industry against the FTC since the 1970s, but may spell trouble for other direct sales companies.
