About the Course
Dentistry demands extraordinary skill, precision, and resilience. Yet some of the greatest challenges we face have very little to do with what happens in the operatory. Across every role in the dental practice, there is one challenge that can impact our teams, our patients, our success and even how we experience our careers. What if the hardest procedure in dentistry
isn’t clinical at all?
Through powerful stories, humor, reflection, and audience interaction, Dr. Craig Spodak will challenge attendees to rethink what may really be standing between where they are today and what’s possible.
