Dr. Peter Auster reviewed his dental life 15 years ago and decided he wanted out. He scanned the want ads, couldn’t find an acceptable substitute and decided to rearrange his dental and physical world instead. Slowly, his dental life evolved and his goal is now to help other unhappy, unfulfilled dentists.  He was recently named a 2017 “Leader in Continuing Education” by Dentistry Today Magazine. Dr. Auster has lectured from Portland, Maine, to Portland, Oregon and recently in Kingston, Jamaica.

His seminars include “How to be Thrilled in Dentistry (for the first time)? “(summarized in an October, 2015 article in Dental Economics),"Tackling Complicated Cases”and,“100 Cosmetic Products and Pearls”.
