For the second year in a row, Dr. Seminara has been appointed the president of the Montreal Dental Club. Many people are probably wondering why dentists have a club, and what exactly are they doing there?
Well actually, the Montreal Dental Club is the oldest and most prestigious dental education club in Canada. Founded in 1897, it’s mandate is to provide quality post-graduate training and courses to the dentists of Montreal. People may not be aware, but as dentists we are required to take a number of courses per year in order to stay current with the latest information about dentistry. The Club makes this simple, by providing access to high quality courses to it’s members. And we must be doing something right, because we have 230 active members!
Last year, we organized lectures in the treatment of gum disease, advanced implant techniques and oral cancer diagnosis, among others. Our lecturers are local, national and international, and this year we should have a full schedule of 10 lectures and 1 hands-on course. Anyone can check out the website at www.montrealdentalclub.ca
Congratulations Dr. Seminara, on your appointment. I was not aware that this Dental Club had been in existence for so long. It’s no wonder that Montreal dentists are top notch practitioners. Your mandate is an important one, which I believe, ultimately, benefits both dentists and patients by ensuring that Montreal Dentists are world class in their field. Keep up the outstanding work.
