Text from Pages 1 - 216 of the 2005 volume:

. 2005 Odontolog -1 !J are Four years ago we came together in North Phiily to embark upon a very long journey. We came from all corners of rhe earth with one thing on our minds, to become dentists. Here f IP e facts about us that arc quite esting. We started with 23 mar-ages. Now there arc 42 and 10 engagements. We started with 12 children and now have 25 (weYe definitely a productive class!) We could not be more diverse; before school wc were customs inspectors, submarine specialists, musicians. Universal Studios photographers, ballroom dancers, furniture designers, oil fielders, high school biology teachers, singers, models, spelunkers, web page design-ers, and bovine lacti-extracters (cow milkers). As you well know wc arc an extremely intriguing group of people who despite our different backgrounds have converged onto the same path. We did it, and we did it at one of the biggest and best schools in the country. We can now leave Temple with the gratitude and confidence knowing that the experience we have gained has strengthened us and will allow us to become much greater than we had ever dreamed. 2 •• Temple University School of Dentistry jptA yyyj t oj fiv owkdje', gvovvttv cwtft acJw v v +xt 2005 Odontolos — 3 May 19, 2005 To the Class of 2005: A year ago at this time we were still basking in the glow of our “perfect” accreditation. While the glow continues, my feet are now back on the ground and I am better able to objectively analyze the accreditation experience, and give credit where credit is due. It is my privilege, therefore, to say “thank you” to the Class of 2005 and the major role you played in making it happen. It is tempting to say that you students are as “perfect” as our school. I have said many times over the years that our students are our greatest asset, and I believe that now more than ever. Dr. Henry Cherrick. former Dean of the dental school at UCLA, served as our accreditation advisor. He particularly commented during the time he worked with us about the professional demeanor, the friendliness and the positive attitudes of our students; these remarks were echoed by the accreditation team. Similar comments about TUSoD students come from our applicants. You have put up with a lot over these four years, and you have come through, with very little attrition. Your NERB results were outstanding! I congratulate you as you achieve the preliminary goal of graduation and join you in looking forward to the greater goal of success in your chosen profession. I know you will make us proud. Again, thank you. Sincerely, 4 - Temple University School of Dentistry to 'V 'Jolm 1 1 The Class of 2005 would love nothing more than to dedicate the 2005 Odontolog to Dr. John Esposito, aka Espo. We all know that this man is the best. From the tap dancing and singing in clinic to his famous quote cheap is good, but free is better”; there is no one like Dr. Esposito. He lightened the load of an extremely heavy clinic, and that is tough to do. He has the respect and appreciation of his colleges, his students and everyone else who has ever crossed his path. Everyone can see the line outside of his office door Monday through Thursday and no one can deny what he teaches us about dentistry and life in general. It is rare to meet a man with such character and it will be absolutely impossible to forget such a great teacher. Dr. Esposito, here's to you, Cicntanni” from the Class of 2005. Dr. Esposito writes: I am deeply humbled and extremely grateful to the class of 2005 for this honor. The two most important things you can give your children arc roots then let them have wings. Hopefully you have been given the roots here at Temple. Now fly as high as your dreams will take you. And whatever you do, don't let anyone steal your dreams. Good luck in your future endeavors. John V. Esposito D.D.S. 2005 Odontolog - 5 6 - Temple University School of Dentistry SENIORS tvokt c ofies to oia , hecvitt Wc have spent a great deal of time together and have accomplished a number ot great teats over the last tour years. We established new clubs and organizations, created new jobs, reconditioned both the pre-clinic and the clinic, and we still managed to complete our requirements in the process. From the moment we walked through the door wc took control of our destinies. Now wc will never again have to wait for a faculty member to look at our preparations, go searching for signatures on our progress notes, wait in line at the cashier, wait tor insurance payments in order to get credit (now wc wait for cash), struggle to reserve a chair, or hear Fran singing Sinatra in the next cubical! Through thick and thin wc managed to accomplish these fears and now it is time to move on to the next level. Good luck to every single one of us. It has been one fantastic ride. Yearbook Staff Francis Mecadon, Michaela McCormick, Kim Ghali, Janelc Gibson, Damian Millilo, Azure Pelberg, Mike Farr, Chris West Ejlal Alalawi, D.M.D Bahrain, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Juniata College I'd like to thank my family and friends for all their love and support.

Baran, D.M.D Wilmington, Delaware University of Delaware Who would have thought a group of guys looking for something to do after the freshmen orientation party would have became what they are. Now, whenever the words “0-20 are mentioned we will all remember. We will remember things such as “San Diego, pronto... How about the rendition of “Bowling Down Buchner’s Door.” All of the good times at the best bar in Philly (and I’m not talking about the Bayou). I was told that the best friends 1 would ever have would be the ones from dental school, and 1 believe that person was right.

Caligan, D.M.D I lerndon, Virginia Wake Forest University I would like to thank my family and friends and anyone else who feels they deserve to be thanked for whatever it is they did to help get me through the past four years. There have been many long days and more than a few long nights. Some I can remember with amazing clarity; others arc a murky haze. Somewhere along the wav there were a few classes, a couple tests, some truly bizarre patients, and lots of meaningless paperwork. Hopefully I learned something useful and helped more people than I hurt. I appreciate those who helped me along the way and made my four years more enjoyable. 1 can't honestly sav that 1 will miss doing wax ups or setting teeth, but I’m sure I'll miss hanging out with my friends in the lab.... and at the bar, and working on a crappy boat, and road trips, and everywhere else we ended up.

Surgery Honor Society Stomatognathic Honor Society Asia American Club It's hard to believe that a dental school can change a guy who used to rip off typodont cusps with a hatchet while burning his arm hair and lashes over the bunsen burner into a competent dentist. Now the juice is loose, and so is this bull. Temple was a heck of an experience. Ups, downs, lefts, and rights, dental school here in North Philly had a little of everything (except for anything good to ear). In the end, thank you Temple faculty and staff I’m truly astonished at what I can do. Special thanks to Rcnic for your relentless love and support. You truly amaze me.

Who knew? Who knew that a little known group formed in preclinic would turn out to be the force it is today? You guys all know your names, so 1 won’t name them all. Basically if you have a T-shirt with your nickname on it, I am talking to you. I feel that if we didn’t find each other that faithful orientation night party, I may not be here now... Thanx guys!

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

You stood through our first set of procedures, tried to convince us that wc could do them, and encouraged us to crawl to the next level. Before we knew it, wc were walking. You have taken us from incisor block carvings to six unit bridges. You dealt with our apprehensiveness and conservativeness, and even some rebelliousness, and always found a way to give constructive criticism in the nicest possible way, even when you were agitated. We hope you had as much fun with us as we have had with you. Thank you again for everything. We'll see you at the next convention! 2005 Odontolog • 147 Pedodontics I)r.

Clubs were a great way to arouse our intellect, keep us informed, or just plain help us blow off some steam. They allowed us the challenge of having to do things above and beyond the school curriculum. Networking, multitasking, setting and achieving goals were just some of the skills gained. The Asian American dinner, DWO sports and parties, and lunch-n-learns were ways for the students to socialize and build camaraderie, and learn something while at it. free food, fabulous company, and great fun were what it was all about. 2005 Odontolog -165 (X yoc cit O'. )rv trvye tc yi' $4MC zttorv ojj 'lA)or c yA 0 ' ©5 1t b 'l Oxyibk Oizle , 166 - Temple University School of Dentistry ■■ 2005 Odontolos -167 168 • Temple University School of Dentistry (Xbtocsu £vf v rsruf u o+x yv tviA rCC ( Ovv yjyi 2005 Odontolog - 169 DearHajira.

Matthew's life has been a beacon to all who have been fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of the stream of light he brings wherever he goes. Setting goals and achieving them has been his modus operandi since he was old enough to save up for his own Lego set and down comforter. Balance and growth has been his pattern of accomplishment as he set out to enjoy life as a husband, father, Dentist, member of his community, and follower of Christ. We, his family have enjoyed watching Matt, and we are excited to see what bright lights wait around the next corner as he begins his professional life. With love congratulations.
