Dr. Dan Bills Installed as President of the Southern Dental Society of New Jersey


Dr. Dan Bills, an orthodontist in Sicklerville, was recently installed as the President of the Southern Dental Society of New Jersey. The ceremony was held at Woodcrest Country Club in Cherry Hill on Wednesday, May 18th. “I am honored to assume the duties and responsibilities of this prestigious office,” said Bills, “and I will continue to serve the dental community in South Jersey and beyond to the best of my ability.”

Serving organized dentistry is nothing new for Bills. He served as the national Vice-President of the American Student Dental Association while in dental school and on the American Dental Association (ADA) Committee on the New Dentist while in his orthodontic residency. During that time, Dr. Bills was honored to also serve on the ADA Council on Dental Education and Licensure, the ADA Council on Dental Benefit Programs, and the ADA Task Force on the Role of Patient Based Examinations. Most recently, he has served as a Committee Chair and a Delegate of the New Jersey Dental Association (NJDA) and as a Trustee and a member of the Executive Committee of the Southern Dental Society of New Jersey.

Founded in 1899, the Southern Dental Society of New Jersey is the professional organization for dentists practicing in the New Jersey counties of Burlington, Camden, Cumberland, Gloucester, and Salem. The objective of the Society is to encourage interest in public dental health welfare, to cultivate the art and science of dentistry, to sustain and elevate the character and goodwill of the profession, and to promote health education, research, and study for mutual improvement.

“I could not be more excited about leading a Society with such a rich history and heritage,” said Bills. “It has been a dream of mine since I started my practice in South Jersey.”
