Academy of General Dentistry Leaders Head to Capitol Hill in May
AGD leaders met in Washington, DC, recently to address legislative issues impacting dentistry and ways to protect oral health care. As part of the two-day event, about 30 general dentists representing AGD meet with lawmakers on legislative issues impacting their profession and how patient care is delivered to dental patients.
AGD Statement on American Medical Association’s Approval of a New Category III CPT Code
The Academy of General Dentistry (AGD) is concerned that the American Medical Association’s (AMA) recent decision to allow non-dental health care workers to administer silver diamine fluoride is a temporary solution to a growing oral health crisis.
