\"\"Dear Endodontic Residents and New Practitioners,<\/p>\n

As we approach the close of another incredible year, I hope you\u2019ll take a moment to pause, breathe, and recognize just how much you\u2019ve accomplished. The holiday season offers a perfect opportunity to reflect with gratitude; on the challenges you\u2019ve overcome, the skills you\u2019ve honed, and the purpose that propels each of us forward in this specialty. This is a time to celebrate your growth, your resilience, and the exciting journey ahead.<\/p>\n

I want to extend my heartfelt congratulations to everyone who recently passed the ABE Oral Examination and\/or Case History Examination. Pursuing Board certification is a remarkable achievement. One that reflects countless hours of dedication, discipline, and passion for excellence. Your hard work not only elevates your own career, but also strengthens and advances our entire specialty. I truly look forward to celebrating with many of you at the Grossman Ceremony in Salt Lake City!<\/p>\n

The Resident and New Practitioner Committee (RNPC) is already working hard to shape a memorable 2026 for all of us. You can look forward to our annual March Madness bracket challenge, MTA Madness, the Resident Reception and Career Fair at AAE26, and an exciting APICES resident meeting this August. And if you\u2019d like to contribute to The Paper Point, we always welcome new voices, whether it\u2019s a fascinating case, a personal reflection, or even a favorite family recipe.<\/p>\n

If you have an idea you\u2019d love the RNPC to bring to life, need guidance on transitioning from residency into practice, want to learn more about getting involved with the AAE, or are ready to submit an article for the next edition of The Paper Point, please reach out to me anytime at PCarpenter.DDS@gmail.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Happiest of Holidays!<\/p>\n

Warmly,
\nPriscilla L. Carpenter, D.D.S., M.S. Resident and New Practitioner Committee Chair<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
