On July 1, 2008, a continuing education requirement law was set into action in New York. This law stated that dentists had to complete 60 contact ours of continuing education in each three-year registration period.
Continuing Dental Education is important due to the fact that we live in a constantly changing world. In the world of healthcare, new medications and procedures are always being developed, especially as technology also further develops. It is a healthcare professional’s job to be currently updated in all things under their field.
Continuing education programs have evolved from strictly lecture-based formats to more hands-on and adult-learning centered formats. There are still many lecture-based programs, but there is a move toward more activity-based and hands-on learning. As the practice of dentistry and dental hygiene has evolved, hands-on courses delve into the real world of the profession while allowing practitioners to develop a feel or understanding of procedures or products before using them in practice.
The Aesthetic Advantage Program is a five star comprehensive dental program that offers a long list of continuing dental courses catered towards those looking to further enhance their dental education.
