CDOCS
Committed to Changing the Standard of Dental Care

As a dynamic, forward-leaning dentist, Dr. Sameer Puri is well-versed in how digital technology is transforming patient care in dentistry. From intraoral and digital impression scanners to 3D imaging systems and digital CAD/CAM solutions, digital dentistry is now making oral care more precise, comfortable, and pain-free, creating more smiles all around. But how can modern dentists embrace advanced technologies and prepare their practices for a digital-first market?

“While technology is available to all, modern dentists need relevant education in digital dentistry and modern-day systems to gain a competitive edge in the space,” says Puri, VP of Education at CDOCS. However, they often struggle to learn more about these technologies and deliver a better standard of care, leaving them at a disadvantage—as more patients slip past their practice each day.

To help dentists fill their knowledge gap, Puri established CDOCS, a digital dentistry educational firm. The company specializes in supporting modern dentists in their journey to pursue great dentistry with its clinical educational courses, digital content, and an engaged community actively helping each other. By embracing a unique peer-to-peer education method, CDOCS stays relevant in digital dentistry, providing members with the best education and resources to attain clinical excellence and economic success. This is ideal, as educators—who were once part of the CDOCS community—better understand what dentists require to prepare them for the digital-first world and deliver exceptional patient care.

With a client-centric approach in mind, CDOCS builds an intuitive environment that helps participants master the art of digital dentistry with a curriculum that offers expertise in a wide range of specialties and procedures.

It leverages its strategic partnerships with global dental tech giants to evaluate new technologies and implement best practices to use them efficiently, enhancing operational excellence in dental practices.

“All of our clinical educational tracks are designed to help members constantly develop skills in new, innovative digital dentistry technologies,” says Puri. CDOCS’ core curriculum entails five key pillars—CAD/CAM, cone beam, endodontics, orthodontics, and implant clinical educational tracks—that empower dentists to serve as one-stop practices for patients. Its CAD/CAM education track enables dentists to excel at digitally scanning and restoring patients’ teeth immediately, rather than relying on traditional physical impressions and the need for a lab. They can also facilitate oral surgery, such as implants, by using precise digital scans for diagnosis and treatment planning.

CDOCS’ portfolio also covers cone beam computed tomography, making dentists experts in using and interpreting 3D X-rays. Educators at CDOCS are also certified to better train dentists on how to place and restore dental implants while imparting the best knowledge in endodontics. The core curriculum in orthodontics teaches dentists about clear aligner therapy. A modern dental practice with expertise in these specialties and procedures can serve patients better, improve revenue, and bolster reputation. They can also take pride in attracting more patients to their practice, which has the unique combination of the right technology and people to provide convenient and optimal care to their patients.

CDOCS is also well-known for its robust online presence, with a comprehensive digital learning library, discussion forums, and case analysis continually supported by hands-on training. Dentists can use the digital library to access educational videos that help them learn a particular specialty or procedure quickly. For instance, CDOCS recently worked with a doctor who purchased a CEREC machine. The client gained access to its digital library soon after the purchase, which helped them learn the technology in two days and provide exceptional patient care in the first week. The doctor attended CDOCS’ hands-on workshop to become more proficient and refine their techniques by working with instructors who bring decades of experience and unrivaled teaching techniques. CDOCS’ discussion forums are instrumental in improving dentists’ learning curves. They can post challenges or queries, either anonymously or officially, which are then answered by the experts at CDOCS.

With all these capabilities, CDOCS is leading the digital dentistry education space by rising to market trends and industry standards, delivering the best learning experience to dentists, and redefining the future of oral care.
