Dr. Mark K. Setter Leadership in Periodontology and Dental Implantology Award

In February 2019, periodontology lost one of its greats: Dr. Mark Setter. Dr. Setter was well-loved and contributed to the field in many ways. He practiced for 30+ years, lectured, and mentored many dentists, periodontists, and students. The award will recognizes a periodontal resident who exemplifies the leadership qualities that Dr. Mark K. Setter lived and encouraged throughout his lifetime. Applicants should demonstrate leadership in promoting periodontology, implantology, advanced treatment planning, and case acceptance strategies through mentorship of other students and professionals, making a positive impact on how periodontology and dental implantology is viewed in their school, or by promoting the importance of periodontology and dental implantology in the comprehensive treatment of patients.
