Glidewell East is now open in Raleigh, NC.Glidewell.
Glidewell has expanded its educational offerings with a new clinical education center in Raleigh, NC, that opened in August 2026. According to Glidewell, the new center will give East Coast dentists more convenient access to the company's training programs, which were previously centered in Irvine, CA.
The Raleigh campus offers hands-on courses, symposia, and other educational programs designed to help dentists and their teams strengthen their clinical skills while bringing new treatment options to patients. Course topics range from adopting digital workflows to expanding restorative capabilities and improving case efficiency.
Glidewell said the new location reflects a broader philosophy of meeting dentists where they are, creating more opportunities for hands-on learning and collaboration closer to home rather than requiring cross-country travel to Irvine.
Raleigh offers strong accessibility for East Coast practitioners, with more than 250 direct flights daily from cities east of the Mississippi and flights of under two hours from New York, Florida, and other major markets. Glidewell added that the center gives dentists access to the same emerging technology, hands-on training, and direct engagement with the people behind the products and services they use daily, now available closer to home for much of the East Coast dental community.
