Webinar | Say Goodnight To Dentistry: PIVOT to Sleep Only
November 14 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm EST

With Dr. Steve Carstensen, Dr. Mark T. Murphy, and Dr. Kent Smith
Considering a shift from restorative dentistry? Tired of drills, fillings, and that ever-present backache? Dive into the world of sleep dentistry with our dynamic panel webinar. No crowns, no complaints—just sleep.
Why go sleep-only?
Transitioning means more than escaping the drill—it’s about embracing a specialized, impactful niche. By addressing sleep disorders, you not only elevate patients’ health but also revitalize your work-life balance. The rising demand in this field promises a lucrative horizon, all while fostering enriched collaborations with physicians. It’s not merely a shift; it’s a professional evolution.
As a restorative dentist, you’ve got questions:
- What is the start-up cost?
- Is sleep-only financially viable?
- How do I get patients?
- Where do I find physician referrals?
What other questions do you have? In this webinar, you get to ask the question, our panelist will share their experience of how they made the PIVOT to sleep-only!
