“An Introduction to the Southern Maryland Dental

Society”By Dr. Ophir Alalouf

Serving the Prince Georges and Montgomery counties of Maryland, the Southern Maryland Dental Society is

an affiliate of the Maryland State Dental Association. As one of the three tiers in tripartite (a three-tiered membership structure) organized dentistry, the

Southern Maryland Dental Society offers various benefits and courses to its clinical members. With

classes in radiology, basic anatomy, general dentistry, infection control, and expanded orthodontic functions, the Southern Maryland Dental Society helps dentists remain up to date in the latest advances in dentistry.

The society also assists dentists with vendor connections in the local community, and holds general

meetings for its members.
