title: Mentor says learning is a two-way street.
abstract: This year's winner of the ADA award for Individual Achievement in Mentoring, Dr. Ronald Stifter explains how opportunities exist for established dentists to mentor students and young practitioners. In a changing professional world where competition, debt, and diversity have grown, the guidance of a mature dentist is a valuable way to invest in the future of the profession.
