Two-Day Continuing Education Course with Dr. Ankur Gupta

Join the Florida Academy of General Dentistry for a powerful two-day CE experience designed to elevate both your clinical skillset and your career longevity.

Day 1: Implant Overdentures

Giving Your Patient Every Option When Facing Partial or Complete Edentulism

Over 11% of the U.S. population is fully edentulous, and many patients settle for tissue-supported dentures they never truly wanted—simply because they didn’t know better options existed. Implant-retained removable prostheses can be life-changing, yet most general dentists receive little to no formal training in overdentures during dental school.

This hands-on course empowers dentists to confidently offer implant overdenture solutions—whether or not they place implants themselves.

Learning Objectives include:

  • Gaining confidence in offering implant overdentures in your practice
  • Understanding treatment options when implants are not perfectly parallel
  • Learning the full workflow for locator attachments and denture fabrication
  • Hands-on experience picking up metal housings and retention caps on your own denture model
  • Understanding long-term maintenance and patient management

Suggested Audience: Dentists and Full Dental Team
Credit Hours: 8 Participation
AGD Subject Codes: 770 or 550


Day 2: Mitigating Miserable-odontics

Tools and Techniques for Easier, Happier Dentistry

Dentistry is rewarding—but physically and mentally demanding. Long hours, poor posture, and chronic stress take a toll even on the most experienced clinicians. In this engaging and practical lecture, Dr. Gupta shares ergonomic strategies, workflow improvements, and mindset shifts that make dentistry more predictable, sustainable, and enjoyable.

Learning Objectives include:

  • Implementing ergonomic practices that protect posture and career longevity

  • Using technology to streamline procedures and reduce fatigue

  • Establishing realistic systems to prevent burnout

  • Applying mindfulness techniques and daily habits to improve well-being

Credit Hours: 8 Lecture
AGD Subject Code: 149

About Dr. Gupta

Ankur A Gupta, DDS, after completing a one-year GPR in Cleveland, started a practice from scratch in 2005. Armed with what he considered adequate dental knowledge, hand skills, and a personable demeanor, he watched as his practice floundered, finances became unpredictable, and his lower back and spirit toward his profession became worrisome. Rather than continue the trend, he made a guinea pig out of his office, family, and self, attempting any and all personal and professional “experiments” in self-improvement.

More than a decade later, he enjoys excellent new patient numbers and case acceptance, a solution-oriented dental team; and most importantly, a meaningful and positive identity. He happily shares the failures and successes with dental and community groups throughout the country, always ending his presentations with practical, implementable, step-by-step ways to be better.

Dr. Gupta graduated from the University of Michigan School of Dentistry in 2004. In 2005, after completing a one-year General Practice Residency in Cleveland, Ohio, he and his partner Dr. Nisha Gupta started North Ridgeville Family Dentistry. In addition to founding North Ridgeville Family Dentistry, Dr. Gupta is a member of the American Dental Association, Greater Cleveland Dental Society, Ohio Dental Association, ADA Success Speaker Corp, and an active board member and speaker for Catapult Education’s Speaker Bureau. Dr. Gupta is an AGD/PACE-certified provider.
