title: The demands of the summer season.
abstract: Dentistry in the summer season of a practice can be a balancing act in integrating career and family needs. In addition, the complex concerns of continuing education, participating in professional organizations, and changing financial planning needs must be addressed in this stage. Although dental schools are responsible for formal education, continued learning for personal and professional growth rests with the individual.
