Alpha Omega International Dental Fraternity was established in 1907 and exists today with the strong connection to dental students in schools in Canada, Europe, Israel, United States, and other parts of the world.  Our student members are dedicated, bright individuals who join their AO chapters to connect with other students who want to become good dental citizens. 

AO student members reach out to their local communities and help with projects that benefits people of all races and creeds.  AO student members embrace leadership roles in their own chapters and also with the local alumni AO chapters and the international level.  

AO offers students many opportunities to participate in leadership meetings to help personal development outside of dental school.  AO offers students opportunities to network with practicing dentists in all disciplines who are eager to see these students succeed.  Mentoring is a big factor with the AO student and alumni connection.
Become involved with AO--at the chapter level and then during residency or practice.  AO is there every step with you.
