Loma Linda University School of Dentistry selects Levin Group

March 29, 2005
Loma Linda becomes second major dental school to choose Levin Group for practice management curriculum.

Levin Group Inc., a leading dental consulting firm providing innovative lifetime services to dentists and dental practices, today announced that Loma Linda University School of Dentistry (LLUSD) will incorporate Levin Group practice management programs into the school's required curriculum as early as May 2005.

LLUSD will also add seven Continuing Education Seminars in specialty areas of dentistry in 2006 and 2007. LLUSD follows the New York University College of Dentistry as the second major dental college in the U.S. to adopt Levin Group programs.

"The addition of Levin Group practice management education in our required curriculum will further distinguish Loma Linda as one of the premier and progressive dental education institutions in the country," said Dr. Charles Goodacre, Dean of LLUSD.

"We have been extremely impressed by the work that Levin Group has done with the NYU College of Dentistry and are very excited about bringing business practice management programs to our already exceptional curriculum."

LLUSD faculty will also receive training in the Levin Group Method™, a world-recognized, data-driven scientific business approach to practice management. This "train-the-trainer" method is designed to assist LLUSD faculty in maintaining leading-edge practice management skills and to provide a stronger base for incorporating the program into classrooms.

Roger P. Levin, DDS, MBA, founder and CEO of Levin Group, will also deliver an Implant Management and Marketing program as well as an Ethics presentation for LLUSD's exceptional remote learning DVD program.

Said Dr. Levin, "At Levin Group, we strive to continually bring innovative new materials, programs, and services to dentists and dental practices because we truly believe we can provide solutions to all practice management and marketing issues in dentistry today. Now, we welcome the opportunity to take this philosophy to the dental students at Loma Linda, and to better prepare them for the reality of the true entrepreneurial challenge they will face in this profession. In doing so, we embrace our role as an innovative consulting firm to positively impact the success of all the dentists who have entrusted us to improve the quality of their lives."
