2022 Chapter of the Year Award Winner
Texas A&M School of Dentistry
Texas A&M School of Dentistry has worked hard over the past year to recruit new members. At their school’s organizational fair for first-year dental students, Chapter president Akeira Warner created a slide show and trifold board to highlight the benefits of becoming a member and explaining AGD’s mission and values. The chapter also made it a goal to provide numerous learning opportunities for members. This year, they are providing 5 different CE sessions with topics ranging from restorative dentistry to sleep disorders in pediatric patients.
Congratulations to Texas A&M School of Dentistry!
