Throughout September, we challenged our D9 community to prioritize the many dimensions of wellness—and you showed up! 💛 We loved seeing the different ways you focused on your intellectual, physical, emotional, occupational, and financial wellness throughout the month.

Here are some of the highlights! ✨

🎉 A huge congratulations to our three Wellness Kit winners! Amy Ly, Lizairy Estévez, and Robin Do! We hope these goodies help you continue making wellness a priority long after September is over.

And finally, a very special THANK YOU to Heartland Dental for sponsoring Wellness Month and making these amazing wellness kits possible! Your support helped us celebrate and encourage wellness among dental students across District 9. 🦷💙

Thank you to everyone who participated, shared, and took a little extra time to prioritize themselves this month. Remember—wellness isn’t just for September. Keep taking care of yourselves and each other, D9! 🫶

Occupational wellness is about finding purpose and fulfillment in what you do while creating a healthy balance between school, work, and life outside of dentistry.

As dental students, it’s easy to get caught up in the next exam, clinic requirement, or deadline. Take a moment to check in with yourself, celebrate your progress, and remember that your well-being matters along the way. 💙🦷

Small steps toward balance today can make a big difference in the dentist—and person—you become tomorrow.

💙 ASDA Emotional Wellness Week 💙
Dentistry is more than caring for smiles — it’s about caring for ourselves, too. 🦷✨

This week, let’s take a moment to check in with ourselves, prioritize our well-being, and remember that it’s okay to slow down, ask for support, and take a break. Your mental and emotional health matter just as much as your success.

Let’s support each other, create space for honest conversations, and build a community where no one feels like they have to navigate the challenges of dental school alone. 🤍

Take care of your mind. Take care of your heart. Take care of you. 🌱

Yesterday, marked the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. On September 11, 2001, the United States was attacked by a deliberate act of cowardice. Amidst the tragedy, Americans displayed bravery, compassion, and unwavering resiliency amongst one another. Today, we continue to honor the lives and legacies of those lost and affected by the tragedy and vow to Never Forget.

Twenty-five years after 9/11, ASDA District 9 wants to showcase how Creighton D3 Serena Wong aims to honor the stories of the dentists who worked tirelessly in the aftermath at Ground Zero, uncovering and identifying the profiles of the victims. Many of these dentists did not expect to work in forensic dentistry when they started in this profession, but all of them echo the profound importance of this work. Her hope is that sharing their experiences with dental students–many of whom were too young to remember the tragedy, or who were born post-9/11–will showcase the impact of forensic dentistry, the humanity displayed by our profession over the weeks and months that followed 9/11, and the incredible dedication of the dentists involved, a level of service that goes beyond private practice work.

Today, we honor Juneteenth—a day that commemorates freedom, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of equity and justice.
As future oral health professionals, we recognize the importance of fostering inclusive communities and working toward health equity for all. Juneteenth reminds us that progress is built through education, advocacy, and a commitment to creating opportunities where every individual can thrive.
Join us in celebrating the rich history, culture, and contributions of Black Americans while reflecting on how we can continue advancing equity in dentistry and beyond.
