Michael R. Robertson, DMD Elected President of Northern Arizona Dental Society


Scottsdale AZ, May 1, 2008: The Northern Arizona Dental Society (NADS), a component of the Arizona Dental Association (AzDA), is pleased to announce the election of Dr. Michael Robertson as President for 2008.

Dr. Robertson maintains a private practice in Periodontics in Cottonwood. He earned his dental degree from the University of Mississippi School of Dentistry and completed post-graduate studies at the UCLA School of Dentistry.
