A significant focus of this club will be on advanced treatment planning and interdisciplinary treatment.  Specialist and Lab Technician involvement will be emphasized.  Other topics to be discussed and reviewed will include: new patient examinations and records; digital photography and presentations; advanced restorative and esthetic concepts; occlusal/TMJ diagnosis and management; leadership and team development; and practice management.

This is a member-participation and hands-on study club. Attendance is limited to ensure a high quality learning experience and members are expected to participate by presenting cases for group treatment planning.
