Jameson named president of national dental organization

Dr. Lee Jameson was recently named president of the American College of Prosthodontists at its annual session in Baltimore.

Jameson is a Downers Grove resident who has had a practice in Palos Heights for more than 35 years. He is also a clinical professor of restorative dentistry at the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry.

Founded in 1970, the American College of Prosthodontists is an educational and scientific organization created to represent the needs and interests of prosthodontists within organized dentistry, and to the public, by providing a means for stimulating awareness and interest in the field of prosthodontics.

As a prosthodontist, Jameson is a specialized dentist with advanced training in oral health issues who is committed to improving patient outcomes.

“As president of the American College of Prosthodontists, my primary goals will be to implement our 2013-2018 Preferred Future and Strategic Plan that will connect the role of the prosthodontist within the complete spectrum of oral health care, and further the specialty of prosthodontics,” Jameson said. “I look forward to leading our more than 3,400 ACP members, both in the United States and abroad.”
