What a great day of learning and connection at today’s CE course, “Beware & Be Aware: Legal & Ethical Insights for Dental Providers”!

✨ A huge thank you to Pamela Zarowski, JD, MPH, BSDH for being such a captivating and thought-provoking speaker. Pam gave us so many important takeaways to reflect on and carry forward into our daily practice. We’re incredibly grateful for her time, knowledge, and commitment to our profession!

👏 Special thanks to our amazing vendors: Orascoptic, Voco, EMS, and Lavender Dental Group — your support makes events like this possible!

The Bavarian Inn Lodge was the perfect setting for this event — such a welcoming atmosphere and a delicious breakfast buffet to start the day off right! 🥐☕

We were thrilled to have both in-person and virtual attendees. For those who joined us on-site, we hope you enjoyed the chance to connect and recharge with fellow dental professionals.
