The Foundation for Endodontics, the philanthropic arm of the American Association of Endodontists, offers two resident scholarships backed by Dentsply Sirona and Specialty1 Partners. The Dentsply Sirona Freedom Scholarship provides merit-based financial assistance to reduce the future burden of debt. It supports postgraduate endodontic tuition and training expenses, or payments toward student debt for residents nearing graduation.
The Specialty1 Partners Annual Meeting Resident Development Scholarship helps endodontic residents attend and present oral research, poster research, or table clinics at the AAE annual meeting. It reimburses eligible meeting expenses not covered by residents’ institutions. The meeting offers opportunities to learn, network, and seek professional resources as residents begin their careers in endodontics.
