With expanded capacity for its 12 one-hour lectures, more than 1800 people participated in Technology Expo education, featuring lectures from Dr. Lou Shuman on social media; Dr. Paul Feuerstein on the latest advances in digital impressions and CAD/CAM; Dr. Parag Kachalia on navigating the changes in CAD/CAM technology; Dr. Marty Jablow on building a high-tech practice on a low-tech budget and protecting your office data; Dr. John Flucke on understanding 3D cone beam imaging and digital caries detection; and Amy Morgan on a variety of topics that connect technology with practice culture and management.

"We are extremely proud to be part of the ADA's ongoing efforts to deliver truly great education," said Dr. Lou Shuman, President of Pride Institute and Best of Class founder.

The Technology Expo provides an outstanding opportunity to showcase them in one place."
