This donation represents the first corporate contribution to the Foundation's fund-raising campaign which will be used solely for Endodontic Graduate Student Research Awards. L.D. Caulk Division, a leading manufacturer of dental instruments and materials, has committed to annual contributions of $10,000 for the student research program. Tom Whiting, General Manager of the L.D.
