This course was truly next-level—and we owe a huge thank you to Dr. Pedro Rodrigues (tag) for generously sharing his wisdom, experience, and passion for advancing full arch treatment.

Breaking Barriers. Redefining Success. Elevating Excellence.

At the Women in DSO Empower and Grow Conference, the Rise and Lead session—proudly sponsored by Pikos Institute—was a celebration of resilience, leadership, and the power of mentorship in shaping the future of dentistry.

With Dr. Jennifer Doobrow, Periodontist & Pikos Institute Faculty Member and Dr. Suchie Chawla, Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon,  leading the conversation, attendees were inspired by real stories of overcoming challenges, breaking barriers, and redefining success on their own terms. Their words reminded us that excellence isn’t just about skill—it’s about courage, collaboration, and the unwavering belief in possibility.

In the spirit of empowerment, Pikos Institute proudly announced two scholarships for WinDSO applicants, investing in the professional growth of women in dentistry. We believe in the power of education and opportunity, and we are committed to supporting the next generation of leaders in our field.

We are honored to stand alongside these trailblazers and continue our mission of education, empowerment, and innovation in dentistry. Here’s to the women who lead, the mentors who uplift, and the future we’re building—together.
