Mentorship Program

The Suffolk County Dental Society is pleased to offer our Mentorship Program.

Mentors provide critical guidance and support to those who are looking to grow, both professionally and personally. It is well known that those who are mentored are more fulfilled and successful due to the support, coaching and networking made possible through collaborating with those more experienced. 

This member benefit will help match dental students, residents and new dentists, within Suffolk County, with experienced member dentists to act as their mentors.  Although any practicing dentist within Suffolk County may become a mentor, we are encouraging those with ten or more years’ experience to serve as mentors regardless of practice modality.

We have made the process easy! If you are seeking a Dentist Mentor complete the appropriate link - Students/Residents Application or Dentist Application.

If you would like to serve as a mentor, please fill out the application for:   I would like to be a mentor.

Although Mentors must be members of the SCDC, all Suffolk County member dentists, residents and ASDA dental students may be Mentees. Once you fill out the application, we will match you based on the responses received. This process may take a few weeks, as we process applications and locate the best match for you.  If for any reason the match isn't working for you, let us know and we'll try and find a better combination for you.
