Cutting Edge Updates in Periodontics

Established in 2005, The Perio in the Peninsula Study Club established itself as one of Canada’s leading study clubs for world-class periodontology and implant dentistry continuing education. Perio in the Peninsula has hosted more than 100 events across Niagara and developed a robust network of hygienists, dentists, dental assistants, administrators, nurses, scientists, academics, physicians, and dental specialists. The fundamental reason this organization existed was to promote a collaborative learning experience among a dynamic network of allied health professionals to understand the complex world of periodontology better. The pandemic changed that. At the onset of the pandemic, we created a new study club with the goal to support our industry network and share positive information. We knew maintaining relationships during the stressful closure of our offices would be critical to our future success. We called the group The Big Red Canoe Club . It is an RCDSO-approved study club, and the main goal is to relearn how to lead our teams and practice dentistry in the COVID-19 world.
