IntroductionSince the 1930s, Rocky Mountain Orthodontics (RMO), has made dramatic advances in the science of orthodontics, establishing LWVHOIDVRQHRI WKH OHDGHUV LQDUDSLGO\HYROYLQJHOGDHOG WKDWdramatically improves peoples lives. Since its formal incorporation, RMO has been known as a company of energy and ideas - traits that remain at the core of the companys philosophy today.
RMO is much more than a business and model of excellence among Colorado corporations. The company is the oldest privately held RUWKRGRQWLFUPLQWKH8QLWHG6WDWHVDQGLVD'HQYHULQVWLWXWLRQZKRVHFRPSDQ\KLVWRU\LVWLJKWO\OLQNHGZLWKWKHKLVWRU\RI'HQYHUand orthodontics itself.
In the BeginningBefore the advent of stainless steel, and prior to the founding of RMO, orthodontists had to be skilled craftsman as well as doctors. In fact, much of their time was spent devising, constructing, and maintaining their own oral appliances. Because those appliances were typically fabricated from gold alloy, which tended to loosen in a short period of time, a large part of an orthodontists work was dedicated to repairing and adjusting the appliances after they had been put into use. The orthodontists job demanded mechanical skill, diligence, and even artistry. And yes, for all of the effort involved, the occupation was often less than rewarding. Even the best orthodontic appliances of the day were woefully limited in their effectiveness.
All of that changed with the development of versatile stainless steel alloys coupled with the ingenuity and foresight of RMOs founder, Dr. Achie Brusse, a pioneer Denver orthodontist. With a small but capable staff, and with help from an executive at the American Steel and Wire Company, RMO VHW DERXWGHYHORSLQJ WKHUVW VHWRIprefabricated orthodontic appliance system options; using stainless steel as the major component versus gold. After much clinical UHVHDUFK DQG H[SHULPHQWDWLRQ WKHUVW V\VWHPRI DSSOLDQFHVZDVunveiled in 1933 at the annual meeting of the American Association of Orthodontists, in Oklahoma City, OK. Reception was limited, and most recognized leaders of that time felt the appliances would not work.
In time, the impact of these prefabricated devices on the world of orthodontics was dramatic. Simply put, they changed the face of dentistry. The wide variety of appliance shapes and sizes supplied by RMO enabled orthodontists to treat a diverse array of patients more effectively.
RMO can be proud of the loyalty and the efforts of the employees and the local commercial suppliers who have helped it succeed and advance during the companys history. RMO is, by all measures, an international standard, poised to build upon its legacy of excellence for decades to come. Dr. Archie Brusse was an early adherent to the synergistic approach to orthodontic appliances and treatment options.
