FLAGD President
Your Website
Did you know that the Academy
of General Dentistry, with more than 35, 000 current members,
has grown to become the world’s second largest dental
association. Formed in 1952, we are the only association that
exclusively represents the needs and interests of general
dentists. The Florida Academy of General Dentistry is one of
twenty national constituents that compose the AGD—we are Region 20
which includes all of Florida and Puerto Rico. The FLAGD website
is dedicated to serve our Florida and Puerto Rican memberships,
and in a broader sense, our goal is to provide any interested
person with up to date information and current resources. We
invite you to visit here as often as you like.
FLAGD established a Continuing
Education initiative in 2007. We are planning to offer a series
of regional seminars around the state so no one has to travel very far
to participate in excellent CE. Meeting details can be found at
all times on this site. Please review our PACE-approved program
providers and support these programmers whenever possible. We
also have posted our PACE application for any individual or
organization desiring program approval for submission of accredited
continuing education hours.
Under the “About Us” tab, we have
listed the names and contact information for all state officers and
for our executive director. Our purpose is to help with any problem
that you may have that falls within our purview. We pride ourselves
on working for what is best for our membership. We live in a very
large state and as such, there are many demands by the citizens and
legislature. We would like your help with some of these demands. If
you become aware of any potential problems, please advise us as early
as possible. Also if you would like to help our profession, please
volunteer to become more active in leadership.
The Florida AGD is strong,
proactive, engaged, growing and cohesive, but we are constantly aware
of the need to replenish our ranks with fresh perspectives. Help is
always sought, so please consider serving on our state Board of
Directors or on any one of our seven component Boards. Lastly, take a
professional moment to contact our newly joined FLAGD members listed
here each month and welcome them into our fine organization.
