Alpha Omega
The Oldest International Dental Organization
Alpha Omega is the oldest international dental organization in the world and was founded in Baltimore, Maryland in 1907 by a group of dental students originally to fight discrimination in dental schools. 2010 marks another milestone in our storied 103 year history as Alpha Omega welcomes our first female International President, Dr. Charlene Berkman of Bayside, New York. Dr. Berkman along with Dr. Marcy Schwartzman of Vancouver, Canada, who is the current International Secretary, were elected to the Alpha Omega Administrative Committee at the 2008 Annual Convention which was held in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Today, with our headquarters located in Denver, Colorado, Alpha Omega is primarily an educational and philanthropic organization. There are chapters and members in cities and dental schools in the United States, Canada, South America, Europe, Israel, South Africa and Australia/New Zealand. Alpha Omega represents about 6,000 members worldwide.
Alpha Omega is responsible for the formation of both dental schools in Israel; The Hebrew University-Hadassah School of Dental Medicine located in Jerusalem and the Tel Aviv University Maurice and Gabriela Goldschleger School of Dental Medicine. The Alpha Omega Foundation was also responsible for dispersing almost $250,000 this past year for projects in Israel and worldwide.
Lectures, seminars and study groups are promoted by local chapters for member continuing education and similar programs are available from chapters in all parts of the world. Alpha Omega recently was the co-sponsor of an educational project in Hungary. The goals of this program were to improve the community dental health awareness of dental educators in Hungary and to field-test home-care instructional classes for the public schools. This was similar to a project done several years ago in Morocco. Presidential Message>>>

Farmington, N.Y. - A local dentist is now in Comitancillo, Guatemala, providing free dental care to residents through Dentistry for All.
Last week, Dr. Joshua Souweine of Victor — who practices at Calm Lake
Dental in Farmington — made his second trip to the impoverished Central
American nation. He got involved with Dentistry for All through two of
his best friends, pediatric dentists Dr. J. Bradley Krusky of Marda
Loop Family Dentistry in Calgary, Alberta; and Dr. Shane Fisher in
Chicago. All three are members of Alpha Omega, a professional dental
fraternity. |

Murray Miller - 2009 Meritorious Service Award Recipient
The following is the speech given by Immediate Past International President - Clif Litvak introducing the 2009 AO Meritorious Service Award recipient - the highest honor AO bestows on a member.
 Mr. Speaker---As chairperson of the Meritorious Service Award Committee, I'm privileged to present to you the committee's selection for Alpha Omega's highest award presented to a frater who has demonstrated outstanding and exemplary service to AO over at least a ten year period.
This frater's love affair with Alpha Omega began when he was a dental student, more than four decades ago. He immediately realized the value of an affiliation with an organization fully committed to professionalism, philanthropy, social justice, and camaraderie. He was active in his dental school chapter and quickly got the taste of AO's international scope. Through all his years of professional practice he has remained committed to his beloved organization at both the local and international levels. Alpha Omega, whether it is in meetings, conventions or phone conversations, gives him an adrenaline rush. |
