Curated external dental resources worth knowing, with OnlyDentists context, caveats, and where each resource fits.
Resources
This hub pulls together the niche external tools and specialist sites that actually deserve dentist attention. The point is not endorsement. The point is context, caveats, and where each resource fits in a real workflow.
Why this exists
Good resources save time. Bad resource habits create dependency.We add resources here when they are specific enough to matter, close enough to real dental economics to be useful, and important enough that dentists should know how to use them correctly.
How to use this hub
Treat outside tools as inputs, not authorities.Use them to sharpen questions, speed up screening, or compare options. Then pressure-test the assumptions against your state, contracts, patient mix, debt load, and risk tolerance.

Convenience matters. So does sponsor bias and board acceptance. This section is for tools that are practical, but not automatically sufficient on their own.
Convenient CE library
Dentalcare.com CEUseful for low-friction online hours and topic refreshers, with the correct warning that state-board acceptance still needs to be verified.

Some resources matter because they help dentists act. Others matter because they create enough friction to keep overload from running the day. Both are useful when they are used in the right lane.
California advocacy resource
Save Our Dental CareA California coalition action site for the Medi-Cal Dental cuts fight. Useful for organizing and pressure, not as a substitute for DHCS source-reading.
Open resource noteDigital reset tool
StillA Slack-friction and breathing tool that fits better under decompression and boundary-setting than under productivity hype.
