Whether you’re a recent graduate or have been practicing for years, there is still so much to learn in the world of dentistry, and it’s intimidating to take on new challenges alone. Isaac Knapp District Dental Society was created to be a community hub for dentists in Northeast Indiana to find next steps and learn new innovative solutions at any point in their careers.
