Membership in the WAGD of General Dentistry shows your commitment to professional development, continuing education, and ultimately, quality patient care. The WAGD acts as a full-service organization to assist you in remaining current with advances in the profession.

As a member, you'll enjoy the following benefits:

Convenient CDE Recording--And Transcripts on Demand
The WAGD is the general dentist's primary provider of CDE course credit recording. The WAGD not only makes it easy to record your CDE course credit, it makes it easy to access them too. Members can access and print their transcripts at any time at the WAGD Web site. This service makes re- licensure a snap when you go to renew your license.

Member Web page builder
The WAGD hosts single Web pages where you can remote your dental services, announce your schedule, and most importantly, communicate with your patients. A step-by-step tutorial will make you a Webmaster in minutes. See examples.

E-mail forwarding
If you have an e-mail address, you can participate in this program. This system will allow you to use an e-mail address of your choice @agd.org to be forwarded to your e-mail account. (Please note, this is not an e-mail service; rather, an e-mail forwarding service.)

Communicate with your fellow members
AGD FORUMS allows you to network with other members--virtually. The electronic discussions boards offer a convenient way to discuss issues affecting the profession.

Patient Referral Services (1-877-2X-A-YEAR/1-877-292-9327)
The AGD launched a toll-free consumer service on January 10, 2000 that results in referrals to AGD members. Since then more than 11,000 consumers have called the service in search of a highly qualified dentist in their area. More than 32,036 WAGD members have been referred during this time, making the service one of the best individual member benefits from the WAGD.

Exclusive, low rates for personal and professional services.
Members can take advantage of numerous, AGD-endorsed programs such as practice financing, a flexible patient-finance program, professional liability, medical, term and life insurance programs, and low-cost credit card processing services.

Reduced registration fees
The AGD's Annual Meeting & Exhibition, which offers the most participation courses, allows you to earn a year's worth of CDE in just one place.

Award-winning publications, free.
