The San Diego County Dental Society and San Diego Magazine have partnered to bring attention to SDCDS members who demonstrate excellence and professionalism in dentistry.

San Diego and Imperial Counties, a robust program of continuing
education, advocacy, social events, and day-to-day support for its
