Each year, Delta Dental of Arizona Foundation (DDAZF) board selects a group of nonprofits across the state as grant recipients to improve the oral health of Arizonans. These funds are used to support projects, programs and services that promote good oral health practices. One of our grantees, Southern Arizona Oral Health Coalition (SAzOHC), uses their DDAZF grant funding to host CE opportunities for dentists.
When our grantees use their Delta Dental funding to host educational opportunities or value-add programs for dentists, we enjoy sharing them with our network! When these programs arise, we’ll send you an email with all the details. Make sure we have your current email address on file so you never miss an opportunity!
