On the opening day, Dr. Rella Christensen, co-founder of the Clinicians Report Foundation, a nonprofit, educational research institute, will be the keynote speaker.

The Guiding Leaders Summit will include a panel discussion with HR and legal experts where attendees can ask common workplace questions and get free advice that helps advance their dental practices. The summit is designed for all female dental professionals including dentists, hygienists and office staff.
