The Dawson Academy Graduates are Taught How to Practice Complete Dentistry
The Dawson Academy is a postgraduate educational and clinical research facility, dedicated to the advancement of dentistry. The clinical faculty, most of whom maintain full-time fee-for-service practices, teach the principles and skills necessary for the successful practice of complete, quality, predictable dentistry as practiced and taught by Dr. Peter E. Dawson. The Dawson Academy’s curriculum is designed to support those doctors striving to be physicians of the masticatory system.
Receiving continuing dental education rooted in the concept of “complete dentistry”, graduates of The Dawson Academy reach a higher level of understanding and skill, and are prepared to apply new principles to dentistry. Through meaningful instruction, graduates recognize that complete dentistry – understanding and exploring the complete masticatory system – is the essential key to optimal diagnosis, treatment planning, practice efficiency and patient care.
As a Dawson Academy graduate, students – and their patients – can rest assured that the knowledge gained, and the skills and techniques acquired as a member of The Dawson Academy Community of Learning, are validated not only by extensive, published research, but also by the lasting results achieved by Academy faculty and students for over 50 years.
