Publishing & Professional Voice

Advancing Scholarship and Professional Engagement

Alpha Omega International Dental Society is proud to partner with Compendium of Continuing Education in Dentistry, published by AEGIS Communications, to strengthen education, research, and professional engagement across the global oral health community.

This collaboration brings together two organizations grounded in shared values. AEGIS Communications brings decades of leadership and expertise in healthcare publishing, education, and multimedia communications. Alpha Omega brings a distinguished international history of promoting excellence in oral health, dental education, scholarship, and professional leadership.

Together, we are advancing high-quality clinical content and educational opportunities designed to enhance dental practice and improve patient care worldwide.

Continuing a Legacy of Scholarship

For many years, Alpha Omega proudly published The Alpha Omegan, a highly respected journal featuring PubMed-indexed articles that were widely cited by lecturers, researchers, and clinicians. When the journal was discontinued due to rising production costs, Compendium stepped forward to honor its legacy.

Compendium created a dedicated Alpha Omega section within its publication, preserving AO’s longstanding tradition of scholarly contribution and clinical excellence.

Compendium has been a trusted resource for general practitioners and specialists for more than 37 years and reaches over 20,000 dentists worldwide. Through this partnership, AO members continue to have a respected platform for sharing research, case studies, and clinical insights with a global audience.

Member Opportunities

Opportunities for Alpha Omega Members

Alpha Omega members are encouraged to contribute scholarly and clinical work, including:

  • Original research
  • Case reports
  • Clinical reviews
  • Innovative treatment approaches

Submissions are published in a highly respected, peer-reviewed journal indexed in PubMed, providing meaningful academic visibility and professional recognition.

In addition, through AEGIS and CDEWorld.com, Alpha Omega members have access to continuing education opportunities via published articles and multimedia educational content.

Looking Ahead

Renewing Our Voice

While the dedicated Alpha Omega section continues within Compendium, member participation has declined in recent years. This partnership represents an important opportunity to strengthen Alpha Omega’s presence in the journal and within the broader dental community.

We invite interested members to contribute and help bring Alpha Omega’s voice, and excellence, back to the pages of Compendium.

Together, we can reinforce our tradition of scholarship, increase our visibility, and continue advancing oral health through leadership and education.
