The Pankey Institute

History

The Institute is unlike any other advanced education center. Founded and built in honor of one of the greats, Dr. L.D. Pankey, it provides you access to a special learning experience. More than 50 years ago, Dr. Lindsey D. Pankey, Sr., had a national and international reputation in dentistry as a world-class restorative pioneer and educator. He was a passionate advocate of comprehensive, patient-centered dentistry and spent much of his life helping other dentists understand the happiness and fulfillment to be had in closer relationships with patients. Having accumulated nearly every award and honor that organized dentistry could bestow, several of Dr. Pankey's colleagues sought to honor him in a unique way. They asked him to lend his name to an institute for advanced dental education. He accepted, and fundraising began to form the nonprofit known as The Pankey Institute.
