The Academy of Advanced General Dentistry (AAGD) is a not-for-profit professional organization dedicated to advancing general dentistry. We empower dentists through lifelong learning, competency-based education, hands-on clinical training, research, innovation, and leadership development. In doing so, we foster clinical excellence and enable high-quality, evidence-based, patient-centered dental care.
Guided by the philosophy of "Do No Harm Dentistry" and the principles of Minimally Invasive Comprehensive Dental Care (MiCD Care), AAGD equips general dentists with evidence-based knowledge, structured continuing education, clinical and practice skills, and sound clinical judgment. Our programs promote ethical, patient-centered, and predictable dental care that preserves natural tissue, optimizes long-term oral health, and minimizes biological, financial, time, and emotional costs to patients.
