Active Aligners - The Fair Advantage Course

The Fair AdvantageActive Aligners­ Course / Day

4th June 2022, Sandton, Johannesburg

For Active Aligners Providers Only

4 CPD Points | 08:00 – 17:00 | R 1 500

THE WORLD IS CHANGING FASTER THAN WE ARE

A full day course put together just for you, our valued providers. 

We at Active Aligners quickly realised that the Dental profession is not only a beautiful profession that helps change lives, but is also a profession filled with complexity, leadership, business / practice challenges and many more. Yet there is no education or platform that helps identify these challenges and issues, and then helps solve or provides insights to ways forward.

For the reasons above, we have put together a day that most people in life, business, or a job would not normally have access to. Our speaker line-up has been selected to provide knowledge, wisdom and insight around:

Finance (money) in wealth creation and preservation

Dental profession career insights, what is coming, what should I have done, what would I have focused more on and what am I focusing on now. 

Marketing and Selling – Realising we are competing for a customers / patient’s share of wallet and not with other practices. How does modern marketing work and what should a practice look to implement, be aware of, and how important is marketing.

Active Aligners – Clear Aligners, why all the hype? Why it’s one of the fastest growing treatments in dental and the future of orthodontics. Learn how Active Aligners present a massive opportunity to build a practice, create wealth, make people value teeth and oral health.

The world today is almost all technology driven. Most of us embrace it when consuming – think Uber, digital news, social media, internet, googling, the speed at which communication flows (WhatsApp), reviews, access to information and even decision making is moving towards big data to make the best decision with the best return and least risk. Technology is not coming, it’s here in dental space today and will only become a more powerful tool in your practices. Our goal with the day is to leave you thinking differently, informed and looking forward to embracing whats coming and how do you maximize your career in the dental industry.
