About DISC

Since 2003, DISC (Denver Implant Study Club) has provided the most relevant dental implant continuing education to Denver and its subsidiaries. Starting in 2017, we have a new format, a great line-up of national speakers, a new venue, and special offerings. Our main objective is to empower doctors and their offices in building their implant practices. It is geared toward both general dentists and specialists.

In order to attend the DISC 2020 sessions, you must be a 2020 DISC Premier Member.
