Continuing Education for Dentists in Tulare and Kings Counties
Continuing education is not just a licensing requirement. It is the foundation of clinical excellence and patient safety. Tulare Kings Dental Society provides structured, relevant CE courses designed specifically for dental professionals practicing in the Central Valley. Our 2026 CE schedule includes:
2-hour Study Club sessions at restaurant venues
6-hour CE courses held at the Visalia Wyndham
8-hour Infection Control courses pending board approval
CPR training opportunities throughout the year
CDPA, ICN, OSHA, and Office Emergency courses

From opioid compliance to pediatric pearls and office emergencies, our continuing education events focus on the issues dentists actually face in practice. You leave with actionable knowledge, not just a certificate.
