Seattle Study Club & American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry Launch Global Search for Top Dentist

Seattle Study Club and the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD) have launched the Best Case Wins Challenge, a global competition to identify the best dentists in 4 clinical categories. The total prize package is valued at over $50,000, according to a press release from the Seattle Study Club.

The competition began July 17, 2024, and will run until August 31, 2024. Dentists are invited to submit cases in 4 categories: implant restorative case, crown lengthening, ortho restorative case, and restorative full mouth rehabilitation, per the press release.

“We wanted to develop a contest that was created by clinicians, for clinicians,” Dr Amanda Seay, President-elect of AACD and Clinical Director of Seattle Study Club, said in the press release. “The AACD and Seattle Study Club have always held comprehensive dentistry in the highest regard and this search for the best dentist in the world will reflect that, plus it will be a lot of fun!”

The Best Case Wins Challenge is designed to empower dentists not only to spotlight their clinical work but to also engage in collaborative, engaging peer-to-peer conversations. Submissions will be reviewed by Seattle Study Club clinicians and AACD Examiners, and finalists will compete in head-to-head challenges. Voting will be conducted anonymously by fellow dentists to ensure the best clinical work is recognized. Winners will be announced at the Seattle Study Club Symposium, January 22-25, 2025.

Each of the 4 winners will receive a prize package valued at over $12,500. For more information and to submit your entry, visit the website here.
