Scholarship details
Dr. Maxine Feinberg, President of the American Dental Association, said in a 2015 statement that “Despite all the advances in our ability to prevent, detect and treat dental diseases, too many Americans – for a variety of reasons – are not enjoying the best possible oral health.” Through our programs of education and professional referral services, we promise to do everything in our power to change that assessment.
