ABOUT

What is the Casco Bay Study Club?

The Casco Bay Study Club is affiliated with the Seattle Study Club network, an international collaboration of dentists dedicated to promoting excellence in comprehensive dentistry. The Casco Bay Study Club (CBSC) is a group of Maine dentists who enjoy sharing ideas, discussing treatment concepts and learning from leading experts. We share the same philosophy on continuing education:  

  • The most successful outcomes result from total case management, an understanding of the overall picture and how each treatment or technique functions within it.

  • Our highest levels of comprehension are achieved as a direct result of participation and interaction rather than observation.

  • Learning from and with one's peers in a structured, supportive environment is the best way to reach one's highest potential in the field of dentistry.
