Your Donations at Work: Advancing Prosthodontic Research through the Digital Poster Competition

Thanks to the generous support of ACPEF donors, we’re able to host the Digital Poster Competition every year during Annual Session. This competition has been a platform for residents and predoctoral students to showcase their research, clinical cases, and innovations in prosthodontics.

In 2024, we were able to present a total of 134 entries across three categories allowing both residents and dental students to showcase their work. Residents competed in the Original Research and Case Presentation categories, and dental students competed in the Predoctoral category. The top three in each category received a cash prize.

Thanks to the support of our donors, we are able to provide a platform for our residents and dental students to showcase their work. To help us in our pursuit of fostering the next generation of prosthodontic leaders, you can donate to the Education Foundation at ACPEF.org.

Your Donations at Work: Supporting Future Prosthodontists through the NPRE

npre
The National Prosthodontic Resident Exam (NPRE) is a pivotal tool designed to assess and enhance the knowledge of prosthodontic residents nationwide. Crafted annually by the ACP National Prosthodontic Resident Examination Subcommittee, the NPRE comprises questions submitted by program directors, and refined by the subcommittee, serving as an invaluable learning resource for both residents and seasoned specialists.  

Your generous contributions to the ACP Education Foundation (ACPEF) directly fund the development and administration of the NPRE, ensuring residents have access to this essential educational resource. Results from the NPRE also provide programs across the country valuable insight that aids program directors in refining and enhancing their curriculum to better address educational needs and ensure comprehensive training. Furthermore, an archive of previous exams is also made available to residents as a learning resource. 

By supporting the ACPEF, you're investing in the next generation of prosthodontists, fostering excellence and advancing our specialty. Thank you for your continued dedication and generosity!
