The Tidewater Interdisciplinary Dental Education (TIDE) Study Club is an exclusive, locally focused community for forward-thinking dental professionals in the Hampton Roads area. Founded by Bay View Dental Lab and Straumann, TIDE brings General Dentists and Specialists together to collaboratively discuss complex cases and achieve superior patient outcomes. The club fosters clinical growth, professional camaraderie, and meaningful local relationships through a high-touch, interdisciplinary approach. Members gain a competitive edge with exclusive early access and reduced tuition for world-class lectures at the Mid-Atlantic Center for Advanced Dental Study. TIDE serves as a hub for collaborative dentistry designed to elevate both practice and patient care within the Tidewater community.
