This immersive educational event will bring dental professionals together for clinical education, practical growth strategies, and professional connections.
Spear Education, the leading provider of advanced dental education and dental workforce enablement solutions, today announced that registration is open for Spear Summit 2027. The annual gathering returns April 7–10, 2027, at the JW Marriott Orlando, Grande Lakes, in Orlando, Florida. Over four days, dentists and their teams will hear from Spear faculty and guest speakers on clinical topics and the business of running a dental practice. Sessions will focus on practical clinical techniques and practice systems that attendees can apply when they return to their practices.
“Dentists invest valuable time in continuing education, and we want that time to pay off in real growth,” said Matthew Coggin, chief executive officer at Spear Education. “Our focus is on giving attendees the clinical knowledge and confidence to improve how they care for patients and work with their hygienists and teams, and to see the results in their production growth.”
The event will feature mainstage keynotes, continuing education opportunities, and an exhibit hall where attendees can connect with industry partners. The annual Signature Party is planned for Friday evening. Early-bird discounts run through December 15, with up to $495 off registration.
“The value of the Summit extends well beyond the four days we spend together,” said Dr. Dan Butterman, chief dental officer at Spear Education. “Dentists are making decisions every day about how to grow their practices, expand the care they provide, and better support their teams. They will leave Orlando with a clearer sense of where they want to go next and the tools to help them get there.”
Registration is open to general dentists, specialists, practice owners, early-career dentists, and their teams, including both Spear and CDOCS members and nonmembers. To learn more or register for Spear Summit 2027, visit speareducation.com/summit .
