My vision for the future of dentistry

There are new ways and new places to practice the ultimately unchanging profession of addressing the oral health needs of Americans. New approaches may be needed to achieve traditional values. The rural poor cannot be put aside, corporate business models cannot be allowed to diminish the personal relationship between dentist and patient, and the social values of younger generations of practitioners do matter. They may be listening on Facebook, but they are still listening for the core values of serving patients.
