Dr. Heba Ibraheem DDS

Implant 101 course was a great introduction for me to the implant dentistry world. Before that course I have very limited experience with dental implants but after it gave me the confidence to place and restore straightforward implant cases. I have since placed and restored 20+ cases to mine and the patient satisfaction.

I highly recommend that course for dentists who know little about implants and want to elevate their practice.

Dr. Samar Khawaja DDS

I completed the dental implant course with Dentistry for Future. The course was comprehensive from both a theoretical and a practical standpoint. The instructors made themselves available, the course load was spread out so I was able to fit it into my busy work schedule, and the cost was reasonable. The practical part was well organized, the instructors were available to support us all the time. Since the completion of the course, I have placed 20 implants. I would recommend the course to anyone who wants to practice dental implants.

I had a great experience taking the dental implant course with Dentistry for Future. the course was very comprehensive and well planned. The speakers were very knowledgeable and available to answer any question. They were also available after the course to guide me in my first cases. This allowed me to have a deeper understanding and confidence in placing and restoring dental implants. Since taking the course I have placed 14 implants. I would highly recommend this course to anyone wishing to learn dental implants.
