The advantages of attending Oral Sedation Dentistry become all the more powerful when team members attend as well. Oral Sedation Dentistry has breakout groups where team members learn how to implement sedation and further heighten its practice-wide benefits. Doctors who bring their team are more successful at implementing and seeing results.

Did you know that Gold Members can bring one team member and the second team member for free? Contact our Customer Loyalty Representatives (CLR) on how to receive this BOGO deal.

An important component of this weekend’s conference is the continuing education credits they entitle you to receive. DOCS Education is a strong proponent of lifelong education to maintain and elevate your knowledge and skills.

Here’s what you need to know about the CE credits you’ll earn:

1. Within two weeks, we will mail those who complete our Oral Sedation Dentistry and Pediatric Sedation Dentistry courses their CE. These vary from state to state in terms of what they need to say, and we will prepare your credits to conform to your state’s requirements.
2. Registrants attending all other courses will be handed a CE letter at the end of class. Our instructors will provide you the necessary course code to fill in.
3. If you are an Academy of General Dentistry member and would like us to submit your credits to the AGD, please notify us. If you can provide your AGD membership number, that will be helpful.
4. Those registrants who complete our emergency response courses will be mailed their ACLS cards directly from Life Support Services, which conducts the classes on our behalf. For any questions, please see your instructors.

Note: Some states, such as California, require that the CE letter be provided directly from us to receive proper credit. If you have any questions about your state’s specific requirements, please see John P. Bitting, Esq., our regulatory counsel, who will be with us in Chicago.

Although most states require between 16 and 25 CE credits before providing minimal and moderate oral sedation, these requirements vary from state to state. Visit SedationRegulations.com to find out more about meeting your requirements and getting your sedation permit. If in doubt, contact DOCS Education and be sure to speak with our Regulatory Counsel at the seminar. After the seminar, access to our Regulatory Counsel becomes an important membership benefit.

If you are licensed in more than one state, please be sure to let us know, so that we can prepare you accordingly. Different states have different requirements (e.g. additional hours, live patient requirements, equipment requirements, etc).

Dentists who attend our upcoming Sedation & Advanced Dentistry Conference in suburban Chicago are invited to participate in a special Dinner with DOCS™ on Friday night, May 18th. Our keynote speaker will be noted author and physician Terry Grossman.

Dr. Grossman is one of the world’s leading experts on nutritional and anti-aging medicine, having co-authored the bestsellers Transcend: Nine Steps to Living Well Forever and Fantastic Voyage: Live Long Enough to Live Forever, both with renowned futurist Ray Kurzweil.

During this special dinner program, Dr. Grossman will address the topic Breakthroughs in Regenerative Medicine: Making the Choice to Live a Longer, Healthier Life. Dr. Grossman will also take questions from dinner participants, as well as make himself available after dinner to sign copies of his latest book.

Dinner with DOCS™ is free to all paid and trial members of DOCS Education, the respected community of professionals serving at the forefront of dentistry. Conference registrants who are not yet paid members can obtain a dinner pass on-site with their no-obligation, free trial membership. For details, contact Lindsay Olsen, membership director at 206-812-7712, or visit her at the membership desk during the conference.

Spouses and team members attending the DOCS Chicago conference are invited to attend the Dinner with DOCS presentation by Dr. Grossman for the special rate of $49 per person. Dentists in the greater Chicago area who wish to participate are invited to place their reservations with Lindsay Olsen on or before Monday, May 14, 2018.  The cost for dentists who are not DOCS Education members is $99 per person.

(Both the dinner and the three-day conference will be held at the luxury Eaglewood Resort & Spa in Itasca, located 25 miles from Chicago’s Loop.)

“This one dinner and speech might just change your life,” says Dr. Michael D. Silverman, president of DOCS Education, who himself is a long-time participant in Dr. Grossman’s Program for Optimal Wellness.

“Dr. Grossman is the real deal,” Dr. Silverman affirms. “I think so highly of what Dr. Grossman has brought to my life that I invited him to keynote our conference so that he might do the same for you.”

Dr. Grossman founded the Grossman Wellness Center, based in suburban Denver, in 1994, and it quickly grew into one of the largest complementary medical centers in America. He and his colleagues attract patients from around the world, including many VIPs and CEOs.

Dr. Silverman describes Dr. Grossman as “someone exceptional; part scientist, part healer, part coach,” adding that Dr. Grossman’s “persona, passion, and products have transformed how I feel about myself. I can honestly say that thanks to Dr. Grossman and Grossman Wellness Center, I have never felt more confident about my physical capacity or the promise of the future.”
