These Fellows represent the top 1% of leaders in dentistry, hailing from academia, civil service, private practice, and the dental military, and have demonstrated exceptional commitment to advancing the field of dentistry. They will join a distinguished group of professionals recognized globally for their expertise, leadership, and service to humanity. These new Fellows will receive their Fellowship Certificate, Key, and Pin, and will have the privilege of using the honorary initials F.I.C.D., signifying their leadership and dedication to the highest standards of dental care.
In line with ICD’s commitment to professional growth and excellence, our conference will also feature the Global Leaders Summit Forum, a platform where esteemed experts will share insights on the latest developments in dental medicine, with a focus on AI-driven, cutting-edge technologies that are revolutionizing the way we practice dentistry.
