AACD meets academia
in new edition of textbook
n A number of AACD members and
leaders are involved in the latest
update of the Elsevier Publishing
text, Dental Clinics of North America
(DCNA), volume 55, No. 2, entitled,
“Esthetic and Cosmetic Dentistry
for Modern Dental Practice: Update
2011.”
Guest editors include
AACD members John
Calamia, DMD, director
of esthetics at the New
York University College
of Dentistry, and Mark
S. Wolff, DDS, PhD, along
with Richard D. Trushkowsky, DDS.
Other AACD luminaries contributing to this edition include AACD President Dr. Hugh Flax, Vice President
Dr. Ron Goodlin, accredited fellow
Dr. John Weston, Dr. Gary Radz and
AACD members Dr. So Ran Kwon, Dr.
Joe C. Ontiveros, Eric Haupt, CDT, and
Dr. Anabella Oquendo.
“As the AACD evolves into a more
evidence-based teaching organization,
we’re bringing the academy closer to
academia and making our brand of
education more relevant to current
dental students, the core of our future
membership,” Calamia said.
The team of editors and contributors has developed a text that will
provide students of esthetic dentistry
(whether they be generalists, specialists, seasoned practitioners or recent
graduates) with foundational knowledge in a clear and concise format
to help them provide their patients
with those elective procedures often
requested in a modern-day practice.

n American Academy of Cosmetic
Dentistry (AACD) members will
be interested to know that ChaseHealthAdvance, part of Chase Card
Services, a division of JP Morgan
Chase & Co., and AACD, two organizations that are dedicated to patients
and providers, have formed an alliance that will deliver payment plans
to patients wanting to have recommended treatments.
“ChaseHealthAdvance is committed to making available innovative
business and marketing tools regarding financing to dental providers,”
said Barry Trexler, senior vice president, ChaseHealthAdvance.
“This alliance will allow providers
treating patients to offer convenient,
no-interest payment plans for 12, 18
and 24 months.”
ChaseHealthAdvance is offering
AACD members competitive service
fees and financial choices to help
patients pay for recommended dental
procedures.
In addition, ChaseHealthAdvance
offers financing flexibility, online
tools and marketing support to AACD
member dentists.
“The majority of cosmetic dental procedures are not covered by
dental insurance, which can pose
a challenge to many patients,” said
Michael DiFrisco, AACD director of
membership and marketing. “With
ChaseHealthAdvance, AACD members can offer their patients a variety
of financing options, which will help
them get the care they need. It also
will improve members’ case acceptance and grow their practices.”
