Industry-Wide Dental Awards Program Announces 2024 Winners at Annual Red Carpet Gala in Dallas, Texas

Dallas, TX; March 2, 2024 – The Denobi Awards, an industry-wide dental awards program celebrating outstanding individuals and dental teams, held its fourth annual red-carpet gala today and named 10 individuals and two dental teams as recipients.

The Denobi Awards Gala is the premier celebration recognizing and honoring excellence in dentistry and is focused on honoring “unsung heroes” from all roles in dentistry – those who’ve made outstanding contributions to the world-wide dental industry. With the 2024 gala exclusively sponsored by John Stamper Media, hundreds of nominations were received and a shortlist was released in January. In partnership with the National Mobile & Teledentistry Conference, the prestigious gala took place on March 2, 2024 in Dallas, TX.

"Denobi Shortlisters and Winners have gone on to do amazing things around the world! For some, it's been instrumental in advancing their careers. For others, it's helped them launch organizations, kickstart initiatives, receive funding and work toward legislative and industry change,” stated Melissa Turner, co-founder. “Big things are on the way for The Denobi Awards program, and we're excited to make an even bigger impact in the future!"

This year’s gala was hosted by industry leaders Katrina Sanders and Dale Stewart and introduced a new award, the Speaking Consulting Network Rising Star Award. The evening culminated with the presentation of the Dr. Lou Shuman Denobi Pinnacle Achievement Award, the program’s highest honor recognizing an individual whose leadership and ongoing contributions have dramatically impacted the profession. The recipient of the 2024 pinnacle award is Noah Levine, Editorial Director at MJH Life Sciences.

"Winning a Denobi Award is unlike anything else in dentistry as winners join an elite group of leaders at the forefront of change and innovation. We're proud this is not a popularity contest," stated Sonya Dunbar, co-founder. “Instead, the program is focused on giving honor where honor is due and bringing awareness to the outstanding initiatives the nominees are taking part in."
