Thank you, Atlanta Hawks and Chase , for recognizing the work we’re doing to expose students to careers in dentistry. Partnerships like this help us address the dental workforce shortage and move closer to a future where every Atlantan has access to a healthy and beautiful smile.

In celebration of HBCU Night, we partnered with Chase to highlight Dental Dreams, LLC, a small business founded by a proud Spelman College graduate, Dr. Zerita C. Buchanan, DDS, MPH.

Dental Dreams, LLC supports HBCU students pursuing careers in dentistry by providing hands-on training as dental assistants. Through the Dental Dreams LLC – Dental Assisting School, more than 50 pre-dental students have become certified dental assistants, earning X-ray certifications and gaining early exposure to AI-driven technologies in dentistry.
