The week began with Dr. Jack Dillenberg welcoming Dr. Brian Novy and presenters at the first annual National CAMBRA Conference. The following night ASDOH hosted the First Things First Southeast Maricopa Council.
Wednesday began the official celebration of Dr. Jack’s 70th birthday. He hosted a Zappone’s catered lunch in the JJLC which included a charity raffle to benefit Smile Forward. A presentation of the first joint proclamation from the mayors of Gilbert and Mesa, Ariz. to honor Dr. Jack was an unexpected surprise during the celebration.
On Friday he participated in the 30th Anniversary Gala for the Center for Oral Health of which he is the board chairman. The COH honored Stanley Bergman, CEO, of Henry Schein; Steven Thorne, CEO of Pacific Dental Services; Dr. Amir Neshat, CEO of Liberty Dental Care; and Dr. Steven Friedrichsen, Dean, College of Dental Medicine, Western University.
