A New York dentist who was appointed to the U.S. Commission for the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad by President Joe Biden and three other dentists who made headlines since July 5:
1. Paul Carey, DDS, pleaded guilty to weapons charges after investigators found 20 illegal guns in the basement of his Massapequa, N.Y.-based dental practice.
2. Mitchell Levine, DMD, spoke with Becker's about the growing interest in implementing dental sleep medicine in education.
3. Massachusetts dentist Mouhab Rizkallah, DDS, gathered enough signatures to establish a ballot question asking voters to change the way dental billing in the state is structured.
4. Michael Lozman, DDS, was appointed to the U.S. Commission for the Preservation of America's Heritage Abroad by President Joe Biden.
