White Rock Dental Group Turns 50!

31/8/2017

 
Picture
​White Rock Dental Group was established in 1967 by a group of White Rock dentists committed to advancing dental care in their community. We invite you to come discover why our group has grown to become one of the largest independent (owner-operated ) dental clinics in the lower mainland, serving many generations of South Surrey and White Rock families. Dr. Regan, Dr. Hird and Dr. Duprat are proud to carry on the legacy.
 
If you have a connection to the group, or maybe you or a family member used to work here, please write to us and share your stories. We’d love to hear from old friends!

At a ceremony in Toronto ON this weekend, Dr. Hird was inducted as a Fellow into the International College of Dentists (ICD). The ICD is a worldwide honorary dental organization established in 1927 with over 11,000 active members.

​Fellowship in the College is by invitation only and is granted in recognition of an individual dentist’s “outstanding professional achievement, meritorious service and dedication to the continued progress of dentistry for the benefit of humankind.” Prior to being recognized as a Fellow of the ICD, the candidate’s qualifications and achievements are evaluated by a series of credential committees in order to insure that he or she is deserving of this honour and will live up to the ICD motto of “Recognizing Service and the Opportunity to Serve”.  Congratulations Dr. Hird!

Selecting Tomorrow’s Dentists

​The University of British Columbia invited Dr. Hird to spend today interviewing applicants for the UBC Dentistry Class of 2020.

​The faculty uses a progressive multiple mini interview format that is designed to select prospects that are the most suitable to contemporary dental practice. It involves many short independent assessments, in a timed circuit, to obtain an aggregate score of each candidate’s soft skills. Who will make the cut!?

Volunteer Award

6/3/2015

 
​In a ceremony last night, at the 2015 Pacific Dental Conference, Dr. Hird was given the CDSBC Award of Merit in recognition of his contributions to the regulation of dentistry in the province. He has volunteered for the CDSBC since 2007 and was appointed as a committee chair in 2011.
​
​The College of Dental Surgeons of BC (CDSBC) is the regulatory body for dentists, dental therapists and certified dental assistants in BC; its core function is to protect the public by overseeing the conduct and competence of its registrants.

As well, the programs provide free oral health care and education to a wide demographic of people in need – children, elders, new immigrants, the working poor, medically compromised people, people challenged with drug and alcohol abuse, those escaping various forms of abuse, First Nations – both locally and provincially.
