The Massachusetts Dental Society's Beacon Hill Day


A Boston University-educated dentist, Dr. Julia Faigel has owned the regional offices of Dr. Dental since 2004. Overseeing both clinical practice and administrative operations, she guides the daily activities of all clinicians and oversees full regulatory compliance. To augment and inform her professional endeavors, dentist Julia Faigel holds membership in multiple industry groups including the Massachusetts Dental Society.

Comprised of 5,000 member dentists, the Massachusetts Dental Society (MDS) spearheads a range of educational and professional initiatives to advance oral health standards and treatment throughout the state. One of the MDS’ key public advocacy events is Beacon Hill Day.

Although it is dedicated to engaging in grassroots advocacy and lobbying state legislators all year round, the MDS brokers specific meetings between legislators and MDS member dentists/dental students on Beacon Hill Day. Named after the Boston district that contains the Massachusetts State House, this annual event last took place on April 25, 2018. 

Topic covered during Beacon Hill Day 2018 included the reform of dental licensure examinations and the need for full transparency among dental insurers. Participants also discussed ways to increase access to oral health care within underserved populations.
