What will you be doing on Friday, March 29, 2019? We hope you will be joining your DCDS colleagues at Georgetown University Conference Center for the DCDS Spring Meeting!
At this meeting, dentists can attend the four required continuing education courses for their DC license renewal in one day!
The DC Board of Dentistry has recently changed the required-courses for license renewal for the current licensing period (January 1, 2018 – December 31, 2019). This change impacts dentists, hygienists and dental assistants. At the Spring Meeting, the Society will provide in one day the four newly required courses for license renewal for you and your entire dental team. A summary of the new requirements is below.
