Also on DrBicuspid.com this week, today's dental landscape is being influenced and shaped by the integration of CAD/CAM and cone-beam CT imaging in the practice. As Dr. Scott Pope writes, these new and advanced 3D digital technologies can provide significant advantages to the practitioner and deliver better care to our patients.
ADA President Dr. Carol Gomez Summerhays believes the upcoming Women in Dentistry conference will encourage women to take leadership roles in organized dentistry, while helping them juggle the responsibilities of their practices as well as their families.

Patients have many options for their dental care. The harder you make it for new patients to find your practice -- whether on the Web or at your physical location -- the fewer of them will consider your office for regular dental visits. In this Practice Success tip, Dr. Roger P. Levin offers ways to help new patients find your practice.
