My Warmest Welcome to All Filipino Dentists

 

 

 

 

 In writing down the articles on this valuable website for all the Filipino Dentists, it is of primary aim to make it a worthy document and reminder of our progressive profession. Several years from now, it will be comforting to leaf through its pages, seeking reminiscences from them and living them again in memory. There’s no opportune time than now to ponder on its past, present and future glories!

We only have one phalanx, solid and harmonious; each dedicated to and helping one another, engaged in individual and friendly competition with other members for the advancement of dentistry. Under the mantle of a common organization (PDA), which acts as a clearing house for dental information and knowledge, the individual members are able to act in unison not only for the promotion of their common interest and the improvement of their professional knowledge but also in the performance of their primary role to the advancement of public health.

One thing is sure: the status of the Philippine Dental Profession is something we can all be proud of. And whatever we have accomplished in the past, we have done it towards the direction of a better Philippine Dentistry. It is for our up-and-coming generation of dentists to meet these challenges and maintain or even exceed others in this pursuit for progress.

This is the dream of our respected elders, that we heal wounds and resolve differences, form and pledge allegiances to one confraternity, and under a common banner, advance the frontiers of dentistry in the country.

It is a distinct pleasure for me to express my warmest welcome to all my fellow Filipino Dentists who check this site. Let us take stock of the prestige, accomplishments and pioneering spirit of everyone, with the noble mission on our march toward the primary goal of service to humanity and our people.
