Study Club Members Said…

“I enjoy being a part of the Dawson Study Club because it allow us to have the confidence to know how to move forward with any case. In the event that a case throws a curve ball my way, it’s an opportunity to get together with my study club and come up with a collective idea of how to solve a complex case. It’s like never having to feel like you practice alone.”

“Being a part of a Dawson Study Club has sped up my clinical experience and knowledge, and has cut down on costly and stressful mistakes. Aside from that, I have learned business and practice management tips from the involved doctors with more experience than myself. Having mentors, support, and a solid sounding board is priceless, and invaluable. Simple as that.”

“Being a member of the Dawson study club has been the most important piece of the mosaic in establishing complete care dental approach in my practice. For doctors wanting to explore the complete care dentistry, being a member of a study club is a great way to broaden the frontiers of dental knowledge. For experienced dentists that completed the training with The Dawson Academy, study club is not only the way to continuously refresh the protocols and stay in touch with the most recent developments in The Academy, but also to pass the knowledge to colleagues and friends.”

“I enjoy being a member of the study club mostly because of the opportunity to share and gather information with dentists with similar backgrounds and knowledge. It’s a wonderful opportunity to be with bright ethical professionals whose common goals are providing our patients with the best possible care. Also what a joy it is to be with people who are constantly thriving to become more educated. Also it’s a wonderful source for finding excellent referrals.”

How Study Clubs Work

Meetings combine structured training with open discussion. Each meeting will include one or more of the following: lecture, case presentation and hands-on exercises. Some study clubs may opt to have guest speakers at meetings. Participants are encouraged to share their own cases.

Cases for treatment planning
Implants
Airway and sleep disordered breathing
Practice management and marketing

The members can be general dentists, specialists, dental lab technicians and dental consultants. It is recommended that members have at least completed ‘Functional Occlusion – From TMJ to Smile Design’ either online or in class before the club year is over.

Yes. You receive between 2-6 hours of CE per meeting attended.
