The History of DOCS Education
After seeing the benefits of sedation dentistry in treating anxious patients, Drs. Anthony Feck and Michael Silverman partnered to establish DOCS Education in 1999. It has since grown from a single training to an expansive series of courses and curriculums—presented online, live-streamed, and in-person at locations across the country. We estimate that more than seven million patients have benefited from the training we've provided to over 30,000 dentists across North America.
From IV sedation and pediatric dentistry to advanced life support and practice management, we enable dentists to offer a higher standard of care to their patients. As a trusted resource for more than 25 years, DOCS Education will always strive to be #1 in sedation training and advanced dental education.
