About Our Courses

FREE Self-Study Courses
SMS is pleased to offer our paying subscribers with the opportunity to earn 8 hours of  free self-study continuing education credits per year.*

Our self-study CE courses are offered up to four times per year.  Each course has a deadline.  To participate at no charge, you must submit your answer form by the deadline.  For detailed self-study instructions, click here.

How to Earn FREE CE Credits
All dental professionals in your office may earn free CE credits.  Each person must read the self-study course materials and then complete an answer form online.  Credit hours are issued in the form of a certificate for the successful completion of each self-study course.  A total of 6/8 questions must be answered correctly to receive CE credit. 

Self-study 2 for 2012 will be available the end of May. Please check back for more information.


The Ohio State University College of Dentistry is a recognized provider for ADA CERP and an Ohio State Dental Board permanent sponsor of continuing education courses.

* Free CE courses through SMS are made available as a benefit exclusive to paying subscribers and their immediate office personnel only. All others will be considered non-valid participants and will have their credit hours revoked, regardless of whether a Certificate of Participation was issued.
