CHICAGO [June 25, 2010] – The Academy of General Dentistry (AGD), a professional association of more than 35,000 general dentists who are dedicated to staying up to date in the profession through continuing education, is pleased to announce that Trinh Lee, DDS, AAACD, MAGD, FICOI, of Mountain View, California, has earned the 2010 Lifelong Learning & Service Recognition (LLSR) for her commitment to lifelong learning, volunteering her services to communities in need, mentoring associates and new dentists, and participating in organized dentistry.
