DentalTown
Farran Media, LLC was founded by Howard Farran, DDS, MBA, MAGD in an effort to create interactive communities where manufacturers, dealers, and specific industry consumers could come together and share knowledge. The first offering from Farran Media, Dentaltown.com, began in 1999. Today, its online population is more than 80,000 dental professionals from around the world. Its partner-publication, Dentaltown Magazine, carries the voice of the online community to 120,000 dental professionals. Its readers have the opportunity to go back to the website and participate in the discussion, or start a topic of their own, otherwise known as Interactive Publishing.
In April 2005, Farran Media launched a main portal, TownieCentral.com, to house multiple healthcare communities. TownieCentral.com currently offers five private communities for specialists in the dental industry, along with Dentaltown, Hygienetown, and a Dental Lab community. In the future, medical professionals will also have communities very similar to our dental offerings where they will be able to interact and share knowledge with their peers.
