Dear friends and colleagues,

I hope this message finds you well in life, in good health, enjoying your profession, and having fun!

As president of the Illinois AGD, I want to thank you all for the support, knowledge, and fun that you each contribute to the Academy.  That’s why we all do this right? We come together to support each other in this wonderful profession. We share our knowledge to increase our learning exponentially. We get together and have fun because, we’ll- It’s a good time!
We focus on and work to organize the processes for our Academy to continue in these endeavors.

Over the past couple years I’ve personally had the privilege of interacting with and watching our student chapters grow and continue to develop at each of the three Illinois dental schools! We’re ALL constantly working such that everyone from dental students to retired members and all dentists in between can come together with us and maximize every benefit our Academy has to offer.

Let’s keep improving. Let’s keep working for and with each other to organize great learning and social events! Let’s get creative with ways to involve and support our colleagues that are not currently members.

Always know you are welcome and encouraged to let those of us in leadership positions know what we can do to help you get the most out of your membership in the Illinois Academy of General Dentistry.

Brenden D. Moon,  D.M.D., F.A.G.D.
