Very weak references, none of which give any independent notability. He appears to be a good dentist but little more. Fails WP:GNG  Velella  Velella Talk 22:41, 17 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Save Ha! He's only the most famous dentist alive!  DRosenbach  ( Talk 23:11, 17 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep; with a lot more accomplished and more refs then your typical pageant winner. Legacypac (talk) 05:40, 18 December 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete for lack of independent, reliable sources. Most sources here are directly related to him -- Dental society directories, a press release, and at least one article (Global Health News) that says nothing about him. I also do not think that he meets wp:academic. LaMona (talk) 23:47, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete for now as none of this seems to solidly satisfy the notability guidelines. Notifying who is familiar with these health subject areas.  SwisterTwister   talk  19:39, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:PROF . The Distinguished Lecturer Award may also be enough. It would also be interesting to include material about his move from NYU to Columbia, purportedly because he believed that some of the school's actions were unethical, but we would need better sources than a blog post for that. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:44, 5 January 2016 (UTC)
