Tarnow Wing Campaign Gains Added Momentum
 


Dr. Dennis and Mrs. Karen Tarnow



Dr. Dennis P. Tarnow, Professor and Chair of the Ashman Department of Periodontology and Implant Dentistry, recently returned from a trip to South Korea, where 45 alumni of the Advanced Program in Implant Dentistry pledged more than $250,000 to the campaign to create the Tarnow Wing for Periodontology and Implant Dentistry at NYUCD. The Tarnow Wing Campaign honors a global leader in both periodontology and implant dentistry. The Tarnow Wing, to be located in the Witkin Graduate Center for Clinical Excellence, will be a full floor dedicated to the concept that patients requiring implant dentistry and periodontal care are best served by an interdisciplinary approach to care.
