Sterling Receives AGD PACE Approval as Continuing Education Provider for Dentists

GLENDALE, Calif., June 7, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Sterling's commitment to furthering the effective education of their dental clients has been rewarded with 4 year approval as a national continuing education provider for dentists by the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD) Program Approval for Continuing Education (PACE) Council.

Sterling has been training dentists in practice management for over 35 years. Their training and consultation program empowers dentists to create practices which give personalized, individual service to many patients at a time. They have taken dentists who were struggling with their practices and were about to give up, helped them turn things around and build a viable practice with lots of satisfied patients.

They have also helped many successful dental practitioners take their practice to the next level.

CEO Kevin Wilson says: "Many years ago, we recognized that in order to have a very successful dental practice you have to start with the practice owner—the dentist. So our program is structured around enhancing the dentist's practice management skills, which invariably results in a smooth-running practice."

According to Senior Consultant Chase Wilson, Sterling's unique approach provides hands-on training, followed by individual consulting to guide the practice owner to actually apply what he learns to his practice. "You can educate a dentist with the most fabulous, workable information and data," he says, "but if he or she does not then put it into practice, you won't see any improvement. Therefore we go further. Once we train a dentist, we then provide individual consulting to guide them every step of the way so they do fully implement what they learn. The result is a successful practice delivering quality dentistry to an ever- increasing patient base."

Sterling also provides training for the staff of dental practices. Explains Chase: "You can have a very highly trained and qualified dentist, but if his staff don't understand their functions in creating a great dental experience for each patient, then quality of service and viability can suffer. So we work to train dental staff to get them all on the same page. It always results in better service to patients."

The AGD approval will serve to increase Sterling's commitment to excellence in further education for its dentists. Kevin says: "We are delighted to be able to contribute to the further education of our dental clients. We greatly appreciate this approval from AGD which validates our belief in the importance of continuing education and training."
