Can you promote in r/orthodontics?
A place to discuss anything related to orthodontics and ask for advice
The short answer
Do not post promotional content or mention your product/company; engage only as a regular user providing neutral, helpful information and, if applicable, ask permission from moderators before any post that could be construed as commercial.
What works here
- participate in discussions and answer questions non-commercially
- solicit replies for student research within reason
- professionals may post clinical discussion (without impersonation or identifying patient info)
What gets posts removed
- promoting products or services
- posting commercial links, demos, or solicitations
- repeated posts about the same subject that appear promotional
- posing as a medical professional to promote a product
