Here’s Why General Dentists Need to Enroll in Orthodontic Continuing Education Courses

In today’s world, continuing education is imperative for all dentists in order to stay abreast of the changes in the industry.  Due to technological advances as well as the latest clinical developments in dentistry, continuing education is crucial to keeping up.  If orthodontics is already part of your general dentistry practice, or if you are interested in adding orthodontics to your services, Gerety Orthodontic Seminars can make it easy for you.  Our orthodontic continuing education courses are convenient and accessible for all dentists worldwide.

There are several reasons why a dentist would want to continue their education after they graduate from dental school. Perhaps orthodontics was something you did not feel was completely covered and explained during your dental school training? Or perhaps you have already taken a post graduate course that has left you with questions? At Gerety Orthodontic Seminars, we feel that continuing education should be your choice, especially when you want to begin your orthodontic career or improve your current techniques. Through our comprehensive programs, you will learn to diagnose any case in the field of orthodontics. You may not choose to treat every case, but you will have the knowledge to determine which cases you should treat and what cases you should refer. Here are some of the main reasons why you should choose Gerety Orthodontic Seminars for your orthodontic continuing education.

• As general dentists, we owe it to our patients to have an understanding of what treatment is available to them. Whether you choose to do the orthodontic treatment or not, having knowledge of what is available will benefit your practice significantly. Our orthodontic continuing education program will give you the information to discuss orthodontic s with your patient and offer advice to them in making a decision. Knowledge of orthodontic treatment gives you the criteria to determine if your patients are receiving the standard of treatment you know is possible when you refer them to a specialist for treatment. 
• Another reason for dental continuing education is license renewal. Our classroom and online comprehensive programs offer 100 continuing education hours. Both programs also meet the AGD requirements for hands-on mastership credits. States vary in the number of hours required for renewal, but Gerety Orthodontic Seminars has a myriad of programs to fit your needs.
• Our continuing education helps to ensure that patients get the latest diagnostic, treatment and preventative information available.
• To sum it up, there are many reasons your enrollment with Gerety Orthodontic Seminars is the right choice. We design our courses to cover a broad spectrum of subjects within the orthodontic industry. Browse through our course options and feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions.
