Attending the Pankey Institute early in my career helped me to become very clear on the vision I had for my practice and ultimately set me up for developing an amazing restorative practice dedicated to excellence in patient care and customer service. Surrounding myself with dentists committed to be the best the could be and always having their patient’s interest as the priority made it natural for me to do the same. I would not be the husband, father, dentist, leader, and friend to so many patients if I had not been connected to the Pankey Institute.

It is with great pleasure that I continue to not only be a student at the Pankey Institute but I am honored to be a member of the visiting faculty team. #pankeyproud

Attending courses at the Pankey Institute set my career and life up on a path to achieve a practice that has given me fulfillment throughout the years. I’ve met absolutely the finest students and faculty committed to help me achieve “my” vision for “my” practice. And 38 years into practicing Dentistry, I LOVE being a Dentist! Pankey gave me the scaffolding to build this type of Relationship Based practice! Because I’ve met so many wonderful people, I have resources literally across the country to call and discuss any concern I have about the practice and my Life. ………One of the Best Decisions I’ve ever made was going to the Pankey Institute!

I’ve been a steady learner at the Pankey Institute since graduation from dental school and the purchase of my solo, dental practice. Over ten years, this magical place has given me a solid foundation to practice comprehensive, restorative dentistry, as well as the tools to lead a highly productive team. I would be keeping a secret if I weren’t to also share the profound impact that Dr. Pankey’s philosophy has had on my life. Work/life balance and the multifaceted study of communication with patients and family has proven priceless. The Pankey Institute is an opportunity NOT TO BE MISSED!

If you are looking for a fulfilling career as a dentist, the Pankey Institute is THE ONE PLACE. True learning, ownership and implementation happen with hands on exercises, not sitting in a big lecture hall. You will learn relationship based practice with long term, predictable results.
Pankey can help you be all you can be.

What the Pankey Institute offers is difficult to put into words, but if it is fulfillment you seek in the profession of dentistry, if it is personal flourishing you would like to attain, if it is managing a healthy work-life balance that is attractive to you, and if it is developing the confidence to deliver optimal care to the vast majority of patients who walk through the door then look no further.

Technical excellence is the table stake to get in the game, and it’s necessary to have the goods on the shelf, of course. The hands-on component to training at the Institute provides exceptional learning in that regard. But, delivering that level of care is where the Institute really shines. Know yourself, know your patient, know your work and apply your knowledge–that’s the magic formula that training at the Institute gives you.

Finally, the thing the Institute does better than anybody on the planet (at least the dental planet) is build community. Pankey changed my life, that of my patients, and that of my colleagues. Five stars (because they don’t have six!).

What to do with all that new knowledge you earned or that technology you bought? How to implement for patient (and team) eager acceptance? This and more is what you learn to apply and implement at the Pankey Institute. Technical information can be gained at many classes. Gaining the skills, confidence, systems and implementation to engage and encourage are found at the Pankey Institute. Providing hope, possibilities and inspiration is not widely available. One cannot be taught an experience, one must experience the magic to change your thinking and change your life. Once you are ready, you will be happy you joined a community of exceptional learners.

I credit most of what I do today to what I learned at The Institute. No more sitting in big lecture Halls hoping to implement what you hear after you leave. Actually hear, do, and discuss the material! That’s how I learned and had the confidence to act upon what I heard when I got home to my practice.

The Pankey Institute is the only not for profit continuing educational facility in the country. My experience helped shape my relationship based practice which has been so critical in this era of insurance predicated care. Pankey focuses on behavioral aspects of patient care, occlusal considerations, thorough exams leading to comprehensive patient care. I can’t tell how the Institute has meant to me, my family, my practice and most importantly my patients.

My educational experiences at The Pankey Institute surpassed my highest expectations! The things I learned enabled me to not only succeed in dentistry but LOVE my work. It is the only venue that teaches all four of the necessary aspects of dentistry: technical, behavioral, philosophical and financial. It is the most unique, safe and encouraging environment I have ever witnessed and there is no place like it in the world. I consider my education there and the people I have met along the way one of the biggest blessings of my life. The Pankey Institute just celebrated it’s 50th year…so many great things are happening! Lives are being changed 🙂

A Pankey experience is as much about what you will become as it is about what you will learn. You get great educational experiences from practicing dentists with a wide variety of practice experiences who are highly motivated to build into your life and career. It gave me opportunities that I would not have been able to have any other way. I will always be thankful to my Pankey family who said yes every time that I called them.

The Pankey Institute creates a roadmap for the development of a dentist to create a patient centered practice based upon relationships. Lifelong collegial friendships are developed with other participants to support the dentist through their journey of developing their ultimate practice.

There are surely a handful or so of legitimate places to go for top notch continuing dental education, but there is only one with the heart and soul of the Pankey Institute. There is just something special about this place that makes you want to be the best version of yourself both in the operatory and in your everyday life. I am continuously inspired by the people that consider themselves “Pankey Proud” and I am so pleased to call them my colleagues and my friends. I am fully committed to being a life-long learner in our profession and the Pankey Institute is the only place that I will ever call my “dental home.”

The best place for the practitioner interested in developing a relationship-based practice to learn proven predictable clinical techniques. The program gives great one on one teaching in so many arenas of practice, including esthetics, restorative, occlusal/TMD, SDB, and oral rehab. Patient communication and practice management are addressed as well. It’s a very thoughtful curriculum that puts the practitioner in position to succeed in and enjoy their dental career.

Loved Pankey for a good basic start. The technical aspect is good and the philosophical aspect is excellent. If you really want to up your game and understand occlusal muscle disorders (that affect almost all people at some level) airway, and tmj

The Pankey Institute is located on Key Biscayne, Florida, just across the bay from Miami. The institute is beautiful and an ideal space for learning. The One Club at The Pankey Institute are a group of private suites with comfortable amenities. The One club is located on the Institute’s second floor. The institute is just a couple blocks from the beach. There are many exceptional dining opportunities as well as other vacation type activities. Key Biscayne has it all!

I have attended lots of CE over my 15 years as a dentist. I recieved my FAGD 10 years before going to the Pankey Institute. It wasn’t until i went to the Pankey Institute that I finally understood what type of dentist that I wanted to be. I have completed the entire curriculum at Pankey and taken many of their focus courses. I can say, without a doubt, that the Pankey Institute has shaped not only my practice and professional life, but it has also resulted in a more fulfilled personal life.

What Pankey does better than the rest is what I refer to as the “secret sauce”. Pankey will teach you how to do full mouth rehabs, aesthetics, TMD treatment, etc. The thing that makes them different is the behavioral aspect that they bring into their teachings. They help you to understand your patients better than you could have before. They also help you to understand yourself, your capabilities, and your worth. Together, these aspects make for the key ingredient that can help you become successful. There are lots of dentists who know how to do a full mouth rehab correctly, but many still struggle with getting the patients to say yes. Pankey gives you the ability to understand and partner with your patient on a much deeper level which in return means your patient will be asking you to redo their bite/smile, well before you mention it.

Additionally, all the faculty and the Institute care tremendously that you are able to apply what you have learned. The sense of community associated with the Institute is second to none! I still receive phone calls and emails from former faculty members asking if I need help or them just letting me know that they were thinking of me. These are also some of the industry’s giants, who I once thought of as out of my league. They have become my mentors and friends.

If you are struggling to find the joy in your profession, or want to learn excellent dentistry, or need a sense of belonging or community, who will lift you up and help you, the Pankey Institute is the place for you.
