Through “A Future to Smile About,” AADOM and Patterson Dental will each donate $50 to OHA for every AADOM annual membership purchased by dental practices through this campaign, February 25, 2015 through January 31, 2016. At the event Colicchio said “We are proud to support Oral Health America’s efforts and work with Patterson Dental to make a lasting impact.

She is very excited that AADOM’s membership will be able to contribute to the worthy cause as well as maintain their commitment to continuing education. “Our members make a difference in their local communities and this relationship with Patterson Dental and OHA helps us to make a larger impact on the nation’s health.
