Recognizing a real need to provide dentists with knowledge, skills and expertise required for the ever-changing field of dentistry. The benchmarks of an exceptional dental practice are excellence in clinical treatment as well as excellence in client service. Dr. Frank Spear founded the Seattle Institute for Advanced Dental Education (SIADE) in 1981 with the purpose of providing dental professionals and their staff the knowledge to achieve these goals and practice with confidence.
The ability to practice with confidence is developed through training and experience. The SIADE continuing education curriculum provides dentists knowledge in step by step diagnosis and complex treatment planning which integrates esthetics, occlusion, restoration and periodontics. Mastery of the skills taught in these courses allows each dentist to practice a level of dentistry which sets them apart from their colleagues and makes the experience for their patients truly exceptional.
