- Elizabeth Shapiro, DDS, was named the American Dental Association's chief of governance and strategy management.
- Four dentists were appointed to various leadership positions with the New York Dental Association.
- Mark Austin, DDS, surrendered his license to North Carolina's State Board of Dental Examiners after an investigation into a patient's August 2020 death.
