Registration is currently sold out; email PediatricDentalGrowthSummit@gmail.com to be placed on a waitlist or for additional information.
Friday's full-day continuing education program includes practice management, EBITDA, medical-dental billing, team dynamics, clinical production, and partnership and growth strategies, delivered in 20–30 minute talks.
It is most useful for pediatric dentists, orthodontists and practice owners thinking about growth, since Friday covers EBITDA, medical-dental billing and partnership strategies, with speakers including a CPA and a dental attorney alongside practicing pediatric dentists. It offers six CE credits, but the emphasis is on business and team management rather than clinical hands-on training, so clinicians after clinical CE alone will get less, and registration is sold out so interested attendees must email to be considered.
Dentists and practice teams at practice management summits usually wear business casual, such as slacks and a collared shirt or blouse, with a blazer at the Friday sessions. The Ritz-Carlton setting makes smart business casual the safe choice.
