I've mentioned him here before, but I want to give him one more round of applause. My good friend and classmate Dr. Cesar Sabates is wrapping up his term as president of the ADA and I am so proud of him! He has worked tirelessly for the profession over his career and it is amazing to think that he made it to the pinnacle of organized dentistry. He took over the job when the world was still rapidly changing due to the pandemic and he's managed to steer the profession into better times. Here is a write up about him that appeared in the ADA News as Dr. Sabates kicked off the SmileCon meeting in Houston last week...
Houston — SmileCon 2022 got off to a roaring start on Oct. 13 with thousands of dentists and dental team members celebrating the profession.
"This meeting is a great example of the Power of 3," said ADA President Cesar R. Sabates, D.D.S., in opening remarks in the George R. Brown Convention Center. "Local, state and national societies coming together with one shared purpose: for our communities and celebrating each other.”
SmileCon 2022 is a joint meeting with the 2022 Texas Dental Association Meeting and the 2023 Greater Houston Dental Society's Star of the South Dental Meeting.
"I hope that your SmileCon experience gives you the feeling of being inspired and more connected than ever before,” Dr. Sabates said. “Because if there's one thing I want you to remember it’s this: You belong to something big. Whether you're caring for a patient in your chair or meeting a student during office hours or working with materials in a lab, your work has an impact on the overall health and wellbeing of our communities."
