President's Message

I am honored to serve as President of the Edmonton and District Dental Society. I want to thank the Board of Directors and all of the EDDS members for this privilege. As president I will advocate for the dental profession and continue my pursuit of providing the highest quality continuing education events for our members.

Throughout the pandemic our members have been faced with significant challenges. Running a practice and continuing to treat our patients to the best of our ability has never been more difficult. My goal as president is to create an easy and efficient platform for our members to attend the continuing education we provide. We quickly converted to virtual lectures at the start of the pandemic and we will continue to offer a digital format in addition to our in person events when things return to normal. This will allow dentists further from Edmonton to join our society and assist our efforts to bring in the best lecturers possible.

I know we are all excited for a return to normalcy in our personal and professional lives and I am excited to see you all in person in the new year.

Dr. Brett Shkopich
EDDS President.
