Baltimore Marriott Inner Harbor at Camden Yards 110 South Eutaw Street Baltimore, Maryland 21201

Philips is generously partnering with ADHA to sponsor this 2023 Philips|ADHA CE Seminar.
It is time for dental hygiene to occupy its rightful place on the healthcare stage and for today’s dental hygienist to feel good about what they do. Look forward to a day of fun to recharge and consider our commitment to our patients. You're going to learn a better way to communicate and deliver care that improves oral and overall health and how to make subtle changes in your existing recall routine and change the tone of your dental day.
You’ll also uncover effective strategies to navigate and thrive in the midst of life’s challenges. Within the family of dentistry most of us have faced, or will face, significant setbacks and difficulties. Learn how to be able to wear your professional hat while simultaneously grieving or struggling with anxiety amidst unexpected adversities. See you in Baltimore!
