Four dental students traveled to Minneapolis, Minnesota for the American Student Dental Association (ASDA) meetings in February. As many as 200 students from 50 dental schools participated.

The representatives from LLU were: Dave Wilcox, D3; Bernard Char, D1; Matthew McInnes, D3; and Aaron Molen, D2.

Matthew Mcinnes gave a presentation for this region, and spoke about the LLU School of Dentistry.

The meetings were held for four days at the University of Minneapolis. The students learned about the government’s involvement in dental issues (including Denti-Cal), licensure issues, networked, and toured various specialty areas in the University of Minneapolis dental school.
