Continuing Education for the Dental Professional

As a care provider, dentists are required to stay on top of new information and technologies to better serve their patients. At Metropolitan Periodontists, we are committed to providing the highest level of periodontal treatment options and implant solutions for each patient’s unique situation. Dr. Elias Kersten and Dr. Mark Wilson of Metropolitan Periodontists educate themselves as well as other professionals in the dental field on advanced techniques and patient care through the City of Lakes Study Club and City of Lakes Hygiene Study Club.

Welcome to the City of Lakes Study Club

The City of Lakes Study Club is an affiliate of the Seattle Study Club, often referred to as a “university without walls.” It’s recognized as one of the most advanced continuing education groups for dental professionals in the country.

If you're looking for a study club that goes beyond lectures and CE checkboxes, you’ve found your place. The City of Lakes Study Club is a community of like-minded dentists focused on collaborative growth, advanced learning, and meaningful connection.

Our 2025–26 season is packed with content and experiences that truly make a difference designed around what our members value most.

You’ll earn 20 hours of CE, fully accredited by the State of Minnesota and more importantly, you’ll gain insight, support, and fresh energy from a trusted peer network.
