FROM THE DEAN Dear Colleagues: As we move into a New Year, it is exciting to think about the opportunities that lie ahead and to consider what we want to accomplish next. At the same time, it is satisfying to look back and appreciate the lessons we have learned, the strides we have made, and the experiences that have been most memorable. For me, the past few months have been tremendously busy and eventful. In my role as dean, I have learned a great deal and made progress on some important priorities – one of which has been connecting with our alumni.

I have had a wonderful time getting to know our alums. I was pleased to meet our graduates at football games and events like the alumni reception that we hosted at the Ohio Dental Association’s Annual Session. I traveled to such places as Sydney and Newark, Ohio, to meet other alums and see their dental practices. It is time well spent getting to know our past graduates, experiencing the places in which they reside, and learning about the dental care they provide – and their genuine caring for patients.

In this issue of the Dental Journal, we showcase an article that tells the story of three alumni and their children – the younger alums who recently graduated from our DDS program. Working together, these dental families serve communities in Ohio where access to dental care is a challenge for many citizens who are underrepresented and in need of oral healthcare.

Other stories in this Journal focus on our students and include statistics about our newest dental and dental hygiene classes and an article about our new graduate students who are gaining knowledge and expertise in our advanced education programs. There is an article on Dr. Susan Mallery, the Chair of our Division of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, who is nationally recognized for her cancer-related research. And there is information on grants, awards, and publications by our faculty whose efforts are helping to expand the knowledge base of our profession.

Our Dental Journal always provides something new and impressive about our community of students, staff, faculty, and alumni. These stories showcase what is unique and exciting about our college, and I am always grateful that you choose to spend some time learning about the people, projects, and programs that make us great.

Wishing all of you a wonderful New Year!

“

It is time well spent getting to know our past graduates, experiencing the places in which they reside, and learning Carroll Ann Trotman, BDS, MA, MS about the dental care they provide – Dean and Professor and their genuine caring for patients.

A FAMILY LEGACY OF DENTISTRY IN UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES For many dentists, it’s a dream scenario to have your child join you in the profession and your practice. And when the two of you work side-by-side in communities that are underserved by dental care, the experience becomes even more meaningful.

Three Ohio State College of Dentistry legacy families are fortunate enough to be living this “dream scenario.” They’re filling important needs in their respective communities, while strengthening family bonds.

Susan Wilson-Brooks, ’83 DDS, and Maurina Brooks, ’18 DDS Hot Smile General & Implant Dentistry, Columbus, Ohio Dr. Maurina Brooks may have grown up in the dental practice of her mother, Dr. Susan Wilson-Brooks, but it wasn’t always a given that she’d join her in the profession. Then, at age 15, she saw her mother do a cosmetic reconstructive procedure for a patient who could not afford crowns or veneers. “She had to form and reshape the tooth by hand,” recalls the junior Dr. Brooks. “When I saw her do that, and the patient’s self-confidence bouncing back after the procedure, I thought, ‘This is the life-changing effect I want to have on people.’”

Dr. Brooks earned her dental assistant radiographer license at age 16 and worked in her mother’s east Columbus practice before enrolling at Ohio State’s College of Dentistry to develop the same “amazing clinical skills” as her mother. When she graduated with her DDS in 2018 as the youngest member of her class, she became the college’s first Black female legacy alumna. “I’m very proud of the fact that we made that inroad, and hopefully we can inspire a lot of other little girls who look like us, and little boys in our community, to pursue this profession as well,” Dr. Wilson-Brooks said.

Hot Smile General & Implant Dentistry is the first Black mother-daughter owned practice in Columbus. The practice primarily — though not exclusively — serves people of color. “We have patients from all across the board who come to us not just because of the color of our skin, but because we have an excellent reputation as practitioners and offer quality dental care in a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere,” said Dr. Wilson-Brooks, who credits her husband, Bill Brooks, with supporting and championing her and her daughter’s dreams.

Because of past events that have sewn distrust in the healthcare system, noted Dr. Brooks, “having Black providers as an option can make some patients feel more comfortable, and I’m glad we can fill that gap.”

The duo illustrates just how much representation matters. Dr. Wilson-Brooks was first inspired to the profession by her childhood dentist. Now, families seek out Hot Smile to show their children that a career in dentistry is within reach. “We have a lot of patients who bring their kids here — to see us and feel us and touch us and know this is possible,” said Dr. Wilson-Brooks, who continues to inspire her daughter.

Bill Brooks, Maurina Brooks, ’18 DDS, and Susan Wilson-Brooks, ’83 DDS, at the College of Dentistry’s 2018 Convocation.

“My mother made amazing leaps and bounds in her profession when she first started, and I want to continue that legacy and tradition of excellence in my career,” Dr. Brooks said. “It took until 2014 for the first Black female legacy student to get to Ohio State. I would love to see hundreds more of us in the future. I want to inspire other young women to pursue advanced health care degrees and know there’s no cap on their success.”

Darrel Scott, ’77 DDS, and Tyler Scott, ’09 DDS Scott Dental Group, Loudonville, Ohio When Dr. Tyler Scott completed an externship as a part of the Oral Health Improvement through Outreach (OHIO) Project as an Ohio State College of Dentistry student, he spent two weeks learning from someone who had already given him a lifetime of training: his father, Dr. Darrel Scott. The OHIO Project connects fourth-year dental students to externships throughout Ohio, including communities underserved by dentistry — like Loudonville, Ohio, where the Drs. Scott practice at Scott Dental Group.

“The OHIO Project is a great way to expose students to the joys and challenges of small-town dentistry,” said Dr. Tyler Scott, who has now come “full circle” as a trainer for OHIO Project students who do externships with Scott Dental Group. “We’re helping students open their eyes to what is down the road after they graduate, getting them into real-world situations,” he said.

“We’re promoting small-town dentistry for future generations so it doesn’t become extinct.”

The broad range of skills needed for small-town dentistry are important, said Dr. Darrel Scott, who bought his practice in 1980 from a retiring dentist as Dr. Scott and his wife scouted Ohio’s small towns for a nice place to live and work. “The joy of working in small town is that you can do the whole gamut of dentistry. The more services you bring to the community, the better it is for the patients.”

Since some patients don’t want to travel to bigger cities for specialty care, the range of services Scott Dental Group provides can mean the difference between a person losing or keeping their teeth. “If I want someone to go to a specialist 40 minutes away, sometimes people just opt to remove their teeth,” said Dr. Tyler Scott. “It’s a special thing to provide dentistry in a small town.”

Another way Dr. Tyler Scott helps underserved patients is by providing care to the Latino community in the area. With the help of his wife, Paola, a dentist from Mexico, he has been able to learn Spanish to help break the language barrier for his patients.

“Farmers come in and trust me because I speak their language. That helps build trust with them, and they feel comfortable getting dental care done here that they wouldn’t have done somewhere else.”

For the senior Dr. Scott, having his son join his practice has been a joy. “There’s a lot less stress having another person in the office. There’s always someone to have your back.” Having his son in the practice has also helped to increase their technological capabilities, enabling dental implants, sleep apnea treatments, 3D printing and more.

Like his father, Dr. Tyler Scott is active in the community, holding leadership positions in local and national dental organizations.

He was recently named one of the “40 Under 40” brilliant achievers in dentistry by Incisal Edge magazine. The honors just fuel his desire to serve patients. “It’s important to keep educating yourself. I’m doing this for my patients more than anything.”

John Davis, ’71 DDS, and Todd Davis, ’00 DDS Davis Family Dentistry, Ironton, Ohio For generations, the Davis family has lived in Ironton, Ohio — just across the Ohio River from Kentucky and West Virginia. But in recent decades, Ironton has experienced high unemployment and other economic woes that are impacting the community’s oral health.

Dr. John Davis opened Davis Family Dentistry in 1976 after earning his DDS from Ohio State in 1971 and serving in the Navy. He was joined by his son, Dr. Todd Davis, in 2005. Together, the two offer a wide range of dental services to meet the needs of their community, which is considered underserved by dentistry. “I’ve always responded to the needs of our area, and the needs of our area are a lot different than other places,” said Dr. John Davis, noting a lack of dental specialties in the area. “You have to be ready to do a little of everything.”

Sometimes, the work can be daunting — like when pediatric patients need full mouth extractions due to a lack of prevention. “With some of the cases, you’re shocked with the realization that this can happen in America. You can see that level of need,” said Dr. Todd Davis, who chose to return to his hometown to practice with his father after serving in the Air Force.

Growing up, he admired that his father worked hard but also had time to spend with the family, coaching his son’s baseball team and doing other things that some working parents couldn’t do. “I saw that my father had respect in the community and a calling to a profession he enjoyed,” Dr. Todd Davis said. “And, if you’re in a health profession, you know you’re helping to alleviate pain and suffering and improving quality of life.”

The senior Dr. Davis agreed. “I think that more than anything else, you need to feel a calling for people — a calling to help, to be concerned about them and to go the extra mile at times if you have to.” He worries about the future of smalltown dentistry, as long-practicing dentists retire and recent graduates struggle with educational debts and high costs associated with starting practices. He hopes more post-graduate residency options might connect recent graduates to the training they need to work in underserved areas.

He also hopes new dentists will see the many benefits — and the beauty — of small-town life. Despite the challenges, Ironton has been a great place to raise a family and see his grandchildren grow up. He is proud that he helped his undergraduate alma mater, Ohio University, bring a branch campus to Ironton so that young people in the community can access an affordable college education. “There are things you can feel really good about in smaller communities.

This is a unique little community, and I’m happy to be part of it.” alumni news

FAMILY TRAGEDY DRIVES SUSAN R. MALLERY, ’81 DDS, ’90 PHD, TO RESEARCH BREAKTHROUGHS While Dr. Susan R. Mallery was a dental student at Ohio State, she lost her father to small cell carcinoma of the lung, her sister to Hodgkin lymphoma and another sister to an aggressive form of lupus. “I was horribly depressed,” she recalls. “My little nephews had lost their mothers, and I remember thinking, ‘My sisters were doing really wonderful things. This is so unfair.”

Driven forward by the losses in her family and her “hatred of cancer,” Dr. Mallery — now chair of the Division of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology at the College of Dentistry — has built a prolific research career on the prevention and treatment of oral cancer. After completing her DDS at Ohio State, she practiced dentistry for over a year before her longtime calling toward pathology led her to complete a National Institutes of Health (NIH) research fellowship at Georgetown University. She returned to Ohio State for specialty training in oral pathology, bolstered by a five-year NIH Dental Scientist Award that enabled her to complete her clinical training, earn a PhD in Medical Biochemistry, defend her dissertation concurrently and earn Diplomate status in her specialty.

The focus of her dissertation — biochemical modulators of cell cycle progression to the DNA synthesis “commitment” phase — became the roadmap for her research trajectory that continues to bear fruit today. As a College of Dentistry faculty member since 1990 and a member of the Molecular Carcinogenesis and Chemoprevention Program at Ohio State’s Comprehensive Cancer Center, Dr. Mallery is in the midst of two multimillion R01 awards from NCI/NIH, one of which is a human clinical trial for patients with precancerous oral lesions.

Along with a University of Michigan pharmaceutical chemist colleague, Steve Schwendeman, PhD, Dr. Mallery developed a chemopreventive patch to provide local delivery of fenretinide, a synthetic retinoid derived from vitamin A. Developed by Johnson & Johnson in 1978, fenretinide was designed to re-direct precancerous cells toward regulated, normal growth. “This particular drug was a bench-top chemopreventive rock star,” says Dr. Mallery. “The chemists who designed it knew what they were doing. People thought it was going to be the answer to curing cancer.”

Similar to many chemopreventives, fenretinide’s major challenge is its bioavailability. In pill form, the majority of fenretinide is inactivated during passage through the liver. And in large doses, it causes side effects like impaired night vision, dry skin and mouth, and hyperlipidemia. Fenretinide is also hydrophobic and insoluble in water — presenting unique challenges when delivered in the mouth.

Dr. Mallery worked with Dr. Schwendeman to “take this extremely water-insoluble drug and develop a way to keep it active in a saliva-rich environment, penetrate the surface keratin gain access to the target basal layer cells.” She identified a clinical trial collaborator, ARx Pharma, to develop the final clinical formulation to be used in clinical trials.

ARx’s technical and scientific expertise have resulted in marked patch improvements including enhanced patient comfort and ability for large scale patch production. The team is finishing preclinical animal studies and acquiring the data necessary for submission of an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Once the IND is in hand, the project will submit an application to the Institutional Review Board (IRB), the final 17

step prior to patient recruitment. Dr. Peter E. Larsen, chair of the Division of Oral Maxillofacial Surgery and Anesthesiology, is a project co-investigator for the patient clinical trial.

This project has been “years in the making,” notes Dr. Mallery, who is always anticipating the design of her next project.

Previously, Dr. Mallery in conjunction with the college’s Oral Surgery faculty, conducted two clinical trials involving a black raspberry gel, which proved to be very effective for one-third of patients. The lessons learned from those projects—and the desire to broaden the positive impact—were the basis for the development of the new patch.

Next up? Dr. Mallery and her colleagues want to address a downside of the new patch: It only treats pre-cancerous lesions that can be seen. “Many people who smoke or drink or have specific genetic diseases are prone to developing incipient, not yet clinically visible precancerous lesions throughout the mouth.” A recently patented, patch-complementary formulation, developed in coordination with Joerg Lahann PhD, University of Michigan Biomedical Engineering, will deliver chemopreventive-releasing nanoparticles for field coverage throughout the mouth. In parallel studies, Dr. Mallery’s lab is investigating fenretinide’s mechanisms of cancer-prevention. “Our results show the fenretinide patch is safe and provides cancer preventing effects. What remains to be determined is how such a small molecule can deliver such pervasive growth regulatory effects. Data and publications that clearly elucidate fenretinide’s mechanisms of action are essential to support the validity of the project as well as our IND, in in the event of clinical success, a New Drug Application to the FDA.” Beyond research, Dr. Mallery is a College of Dentistry faculty member. She participates in dental hygiene and predoctoral clinical and didactic teaching and is a strong advocate for the unique experiences provided by clinical education. She directs a D4 clinical pathology correlations course that empowers students to apply their knowledge in an active learning environment. “I designed a course I would have wanted as a dental student,” says Dr. Mallery, who has been chosen as Student Government Didactic Teaching Award recipient and a Convocation Hooder more than 30 times. “It means a lot to me. I regard our dental students as our colleagues in training and that’s how I treat them.” She’s also humble about her 2007 induction into Ohio State’s Athletic Hall of Fame in honor of her exceptional undergraduate cross-country and track career, crediting the athletic genes passed along from her parents in addition to her internal motivation.

Motivation has been an important force in Dr. Mallery’s life, propelling her forward as an exemplary athlete, researcher, faculty member and more. “My strategy through my life has been to flip the negative. If you encounter adversity, flip that energy into something that’s positive,” she says. “That’s just how I’m wired; action over passivity any day.”

A Distinguished Career Henry Fields, DDS, MS, MSD, Retires

When it comes to his career, there’s not much Dr. Henry Fields hasn’t done. Among other things, he served as dean of the College of Dentistry from 19912001, a professor in the Division of Orthodontics for 30 years, and the Vig-Williams Endowed Chair in Orthodontics. He has served in several leadership roles in organized dentistry, including president of the Columbus Dental Society and the Ohio Dental Association.

Recently, Dr. Fields tried something new: he retired. “Technically retired” might be the better term since he has shown very few signs of slowing down.

He currently teaches part-time at the college, sees patients in the Ohio State Dental Faculty Practice, and continues his research. He still serves in the outpatient clinic at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, chairs the Ohio Dental Association’s task force for Access and Auxiliary Utilization, and is the college’s liaison to the Ohio State Dental Board. Soon, he’ll rejoin the authors of “Contemporary Orthodontics” to begin revisions for the 7th edition of the textbook that is used in dental schools around the world.

Dr. Fields took time from his busy schedule to share memories of his career and his plans for the future.

Q) How did you end up working at the College of Dentistry?

A) I applied for the dean position in 1991. At that time, I was a professor of Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics and the assistant dean for Academic Affairs at the University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill. That position was responsible for predoctoral and graduate studies. I got the job.

Q) What are some significant changes you’ve seen at the college over the years?

A) The college has evolved its patient care system to a comprehensive care model, which was not present when I arrived. That model can only survive if it has the resources, including faculty, to allow it to perform successfully. Such a model is required by the Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA), so it must succeed and be supported. Diverting resources away from critical faculty who can fulfill the potential of our new facility would violate a contract with our generous college donors, CODA and the students.

The research program has expanded and faculty are expected to make scholarly contributions to literature.

The college has recognized scholars and experts.

We have an independent (serving only Dentistry) development group that has been successful in helping the college. When I arrived, we shared a development officer with the College of Optometry because the university believed we had little potential. That problem has been cured and the positive results demonstrated.

Dentistry has potential and has shown its worth.

We have made slow changes in technology, but nonetheless positive ones.

We have seen an expansion of administrative personnel. Administrative personnel who advise on decisions are critical. We have some top flight people. It is always difficult for a public institution to compete for good clinical staff and our administrative staff can help. We need to compete for the best staff in all areas, help them grow and retain them.

We have a more diverse faculty and staff.

That is admirable and they can advance our

understanding of the problems we face in care giving. When I arrived, the university did not recognize clinical faculty who were minority or women in a headcount for evaluating progress. The university’s position was that only tenuretrack faculty could be recognized. They slowly came to recognize that faculty of all types, especially those who routinely are among our students and patients in our clinics and laboratories, make equal or even more impact than a faculty member who only interacts with limited faculty and students focused on a singular topic or problem.

“

We have developed a strong relationship with organized dentistry. This is critical because they have a voice that can penetrate state and federal governments and make our case related to various situations. This helps our patients as well as the profession in providing responsible care and pointing to advantages and deficiencies in government programs.

We need to be strong together. Government programs need oversight and organized dentistry will help all involved.

A significant change, but not a positive one, is the direction of the HMO Medicaid administrators. Recent changes in some have stymied our efforts to get legitimately needed and justifiable care for our patients. The HMOs are on record as having revised the benefits available to patients. They will not change their unilateral position unless forced to by the state. We, as a large provider, must participate in this type of decision making and rectify the thinking that adversely affects our patients.

The most gratifying teaching moments come when there is the “moment of enlightenment.”

When you see the light come on and the student “gets it.” Absolutely invigorating.

Q) What are some of your best memories working at Ohio State and the College of Dentistry?

A) The most gratifying teaching moments come when there is the “moment of enlightenment.” When you see the light come on and the student “gets it.” Absolutely invigorating.

It is also fulfilling when patients tell you how much the treatment and results mean to them. Sometimes it is a better smile, sometimes it is a change in their facial and dental attractiveness that impacts their life with confidence, respect and presence.

I’ve enjoyed the opportunity to evaluate data and try to figure out what it means. Because we have been involved with few projects where funders hoped for a particular result, we only were interested in the truth, presented by the facts. That puts your mind to the test with little opportunity for bias.

I have been surrounded by many students and faculty who have been colleagues and supporters while helping me teach and learn. I am fortunate and thankful for them.

Q) What are you looking forward to in retirement?

A) Setting my own schedule. I hope to spend more time with my wife and grandchildren, which has already begun. I recently sold my last motorcycle and gave up riding after 40 years. I also will have more time for exercise, reading, photography, woodworking and pen making. I plan to consolidate the family business interests. faculty news

STAFF SPOTLIGHT Getting to Know Alyson Howard, Visual Communications Specialist, Marketing and Communications Alyson grew up in Portsmouth, Ohio, and attended Shawnee State University.

There, she got her Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design. After working as a designer for a few years in her hometown, she decided to venture 90 miles north to Columbus. Alyson has been working at the College of Dentistry since 2018.

Q) What do you like best about your job?

A) I really enjoy coming up with new designs from the ground up. When someone hands a

project to me with no idea of how they want it to look, it’s exciting to make their words come to life. Getting positive feedback from people is also rewarding. It’s great to know that something I created can help our college.

Q) What do you like best about Ohio State and/or the College of Dentistry?

A) I really enjoy the energy on campus. It is inspiring to see so many people working

towards achieving their life goals. Working at the College of Dentistry also allows me to work on a smaller, close-knit team, which I prefer.

Q) What do you like to do outside of work?

A) I love watercolor painting, and working on my Etsy sticker shop. Drawing and painting have always been a big part of my life, so it’s where I spend a lot of my free time. I also just love going out to festivals and eating delicious food. My favorite food is ramen, so I’m always looking for a new ramen restaurant to visit.

Q) Is there anything else you’d like to add?

A) Working at the College of Dentistry has definitely helped me grow professionally and creatively. There is never a shortage of new challenges and opportunities to improve, and I’m grateful for all the hard-working, wonderful people I’ve met along the way.

Dear Friends, Colleagues, and Alumni, I hope you, your families, patients, and team members are all doing well. We live in the greatest time ever in dentistry! Technology has exploded onto the scene from CBCT imaging to intraoral scanning and printing to digital treatment planning, rapidly changing in a positive way how we treat our patients. Ohio State has nearly completed construction of the new dental school, which will provide students cutting-edge training and preparation for the realities of practice. We should all be proud of this achievement and excited for the future of our profession. The Dental Alumni Society is planning events where we can once again gather together allowing us to grow individually and propel our profession forward. Through these events, we look forward to advancing our objectives and growing The OSU DAS Lifetime membership so we can continue support for our students, Ohio State faculty, staff, and alumni.

D E N TA L ALUMNI SOCIETY President’s Letter

We have learned so much in the past year and a half. Many families and communities have grown tighter and more empathetic. Focus on healthy living has been put to the forefront of discussions. As dentists we are finding that we can do more with less. Ohio State graduated dental students on time with a tremendous amount of obstacles. We are a resilient group that will constantly strive towards betterment of all. The Ohio State University Dental Alumni Society has constantly been working toward identifying and resolving needs as they arise.

The stated objectives of The Ohio State University Dental Alumni Society when it began in 1976 are as follows:

1. Encourage and support academic and clinical excellence 2. Provide a quarterly publication for the association 3. Promote fellowship among alumni and students

With respect to the third objective, I would propose we include dental school faculty and staff as well. They work so hard to keep everything running and play an integral role in ensuring graduates are properly prepared. I am sure that like me, each of you have had formative interactions with staff during your time in training at Ohio State.

One of my goals while president of The OSU DAS, in keeping with the first and third objectives, is to bring Buckeyes together in community to learn and share with each other. Dentistry gives us such great opportunities to help those in need, while at the same time building support among our team members. My support network includes my wonderful wife and children, along with membership to several study clubs and groups at my church. During the shutdown and the long period after, access to these healthy outlets provided guidance to help navigate the unknown. I know many of you have had similar experiences and have a great network of guidance. I strive to make our dental society one of those networks for all graduates of our dental school.

I encourage everyone to reach out to your fellow dental alumni and help us develop our group moving forward. Please join us as Lifetime members by using the QR code.

We all need each other and are stronger together.

God Bless and Go Bucks!

Jeffrey C. Kirian, DDS The Ohio State University College of Dentistry Class of 2006 President, The Ohio State University Dental Alumni Society
