National Children’s DENTAL HEALTH MONTH 2017 Thank You for Volunteering PDA would like to thank our member dentists for the continued success of the promotion of NCDHM. From promoting awareness to children and families in their local communities to sponsoring events and activities, the efforts of our members are valuable and appreciated. A special thank you goes to PDA’s statewide NCDHM Chair, Dr. Samer Mansour, for his continued support and enthusiasm for endorsing NCDHM. Caleb Nemchek, a third-grade student at Gill Hall Elementary in Allegheny County, was this year’s first place winner in our statewide poster contest. Caleb received his framed winning poster and $500 prize by PDA member Dr. Dennis Zabelsky on May 12 at a school assembly. MAY/JU N E 2017 | P EN N SYLVAN IA DEN TAL JOURNAL 19
