Clear aligners as an associate: making them work in 2027
How to build a reliable aligner workflow when you don't own the practice, from choosing the right cases to talking about fees and getting predictable results.
Learn. Network. Ski.
SkiPD is a long weekend in the Alps for dentists who want to get better at what they do and have fun at the same time.
Spend the days on the slopes, then come together in the evening for honest, practical CPD. No long, boring lectures. We discuss important, real-life topics, with practical advice and close group discussions.
Each session runs for at least 60 minutes in the evening, after the lifts close. Come as you are, straight off the mountain.
How to build a reliable aligner workflow when you don't own the practice, from choosing the right cases to talking about fees and getting predictable results.
Online consultations, content and AI. What's worth adopting now, what's hype, and how a digital-first workflow changes the patient journey.
Case discussions, and anything else you want to talk about. Bring your tricky cases, your questions and your ideas, and work through them together.
Start times and the talks venue in Flaine will be confirmed by email before the trip.
