Inaugural Address
By: Dr. Dennis C. Lim
When my term as APO president ended last May 31, 2024, I thought I could already relax and enjoy my life being a husband to my wife, a father to my kids, an orthodontist to my patients and a professor to my students. However, that was not the case. I was tasked to head the Philippine Board of Orthodontics, which I have been a member of since 2008.
Valedictory Speech
By: Dr. Rachel Yang-Lim
When I accepted this honor of heading the PBO four years ago, I set forth two main goals: membership growth and universities craving PBO accreditation. While these were very long term and challenging goals, I’m happy to report that we have achieved a little of both.
