Congratulations to the 2020 and 2023 Fellows, Masters and Lifelong Learning and Service Recognition Recipients

2020 Awardees

2020 was an unusual year. The COVID-19 pandemic affected the entire world in an infinite number of ways. For the first time in its history, AGD cancelled the Convocation Ceremony honoring the members who earned a recognition or award in 2020. This decision was made in the interest of the health and safety of our members, their families and our colleagues. Many AGD members who earned a 2020 recognition or award have chosen to participate in the 2023 Convocation. AGD is proud to honor the 2020 recipients who have chosen to join us at the 2022 Convocation Ceremony.

Lifelong Learning and Service Recognition

Congratulations to the 2023 Lifelong Learning and Service Recognition (LLSR) recipients. LLSR recipients epitomize a career of excellence in dentistry.  In addition to completing thousands of hours of continuing education throughout their career, these members actively give back to the profession by staying active in organized dentistry, mentoring colleagues and selflessly donating their time and services to the community.

The Academy of General Dentistry is honored to recognize the recipients of the 2023 Lifelong Learning and Service Recognition.

2023 Masters

Congratulations to the 2023 Mastership Award recipients. Mastership is the highest award available in the Academy of General Dentistry and one of the most respected and recognizable designations in the dental profession. Recipients must complete more than 1,100 hours of approved continuing dental education hours. At least 400 of these hours involve the actual application of a technique or skill under the close supervision of highly qualified experts. AGD Masters are leaders in dentistry who have made a commitment to uphold the highest professional standards and ideals of the Academy of General Dentistry.

The Academy of General Dentistry is honored to recognize the recipients of the 2023 Mastership Award.

2023 Fellows

Congratulations to the 2023 Fellowship Award recipients. The Academy of General Dentistry Fellowship Award was created nearly sixty years ago to honor those members who recognize and embrace their professional obligation to remain current  in their knowledge and skills, ensuring the highest quality  oral health care for all patients. Earning Fellowship is an important milestone in the journey toward professional excellence. AGD Fellows are asked to continue to embrace the ideals of the AGD and be willing to lead and serve in their communities to continually raise professional standards.
