Trent Buchanan, DMD, FAGD

Sunday, July 11th, 2010

AGDDr. Trenton H. Buchanan was recognized as a Fellow in the Academy of General Dentistry at the convocation ceremony in New Orleans on July 10, 2010.  The Fellowship designation is one of the most rigorous continuing dental education programs today.  A general dentist who is a “Fellow” in the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD) has been recognized by other general dentists as a leader and example to other dentists of the importance of quality continuing dental education to patient care.

To earn a Fellowship Award, a dentist must earn a minimum of 500 approved continuing dental education credits and pass a comprehensive 400-question examination.  The dentist is required to be an AGD member for three continuous years.  While attaining Fellowship is a challenge, it allows dentists to remain current with what is new in dentistry, and to incorporate the latest research techniques into their practices.Trent  (65 of 94)

Fellows of the AGD follow a lifelong pursuit of continuing education to provide the highest quality of dental care to patients.  The award symbolizes the professional responsibility of general dentists to remain current in their profession and reminds each member of the dental profession to continue to learn new techniques for their dental practice.  These are awards, however, and should not be confused with post-graduate degrees or certification.  Every dentist who applies for the Fellowship Award has their application reviewed by the AGD Council on Dental Education to assure that the high standards of the AGD are met.
