What to Expect at a ZestMasters Course

One of the best aspects of the dental industry is the fact that it is ever evolving. Since it is a unique combination of science, art, technology, and medicine, it is important to continuously hone each of those areas within your own career. If there was a program you could attend that would foster growth in all of these areas and then some, would you attend?

Let’s Celebrate National Dentist's Day 2024!

Most people see going to the dentist as a task that they dread. As such, it takes a special kind of person to not only deliver highly skilled work but also to lead with empathy, compassion, and understanding for their patients day in and day out. If you haven’t heard yet, March 6th is National Dentist’s Day, but one day doesn’t seem like nearly enough time to celebrate the outstanding dental professionals who make a difference in their patients’ and their team’s lives everyday. That is why Zest Dental Solutions is highlighting Dental Heroes all month long!
