When it’s time to earn those continuing education (CE) credits and you’re exhausted from standing on your feet meeting patients face to face all week, the last thing you want to do is leave the house yet again. With DentalXP’s online learning platform, you can pour yourself a cup of coffee, grab your laptop, tablet, or smartphone, get comfortable on the couch, and tune in to lectures, videos, and webinars any time you like—whether it’s before work, in the middle of the night, or on the weekend.
A fast-growing online education site with visitors from more than 140 countries, DentalXP’s online learning platform is revolutionizing the way dental professionals from around the world learn and interact by providing access to the latest dental education online—CE credits included. The website content includes online lectures, educational videos, articles, product information, and courses —all provided by dentists who are widely recognized as experts in their fields. And for the ultimate convenience, practitioners can access the content from any location with internet access 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
One of many practitioners who appreciates these benefits is Dr. Robert Reiner, who needed CE credits to comply with his state licensure requirements. DentalXP makes it easy for dentists to keep their dental licenses up to date.
“After joining DentalXP, I found a multitude of webinars [on their website] by noted key opinion leaders sharing the latest in clinical procedures and new, innovative products,” he shared. Describing the variety of topics as “excellent and well-presented,” he said that utilizing DentalXP’s online learning platform “helps me stay abreast of current treatment modalities,” a goal that’s important to him.
Online Content
To ensure the utmost quality, all of the content posted to the website is reviewed by the DentalXP Scientific Board, which is solely responsible for choosing the topics, CE courses, and instructors, independent of any commercial influence.
Describing DentalXP’s online content as “inclusive and generous,” Dr. Laith Al-Mashni appreciates the different topics that are “supportive and informative, especially when it’s research-based topics.” Noting that DentalXP “completely fulfilled” his need for high-quality continuing education, a Canadian dentist called it “a nice, updated platform that we can rely on.” He enjoys that “so many surgical lectures are available with great speakers” and said, “DentalXP staff reply quickly to any issue we might have.”
Praising the site’s variety of content, oral surgeon and implantologist Claude Istanbouli enjoys that “all the presentations have excellent videos” and said, “It is nice to see what international speakers are saying.” As he’s learning guided implant techniques, periodontist Dr. Gaspar Lugo Morales appreciates the DentalXP videos where he “can actually see the latest trends in surgical modalities.” When asked about potential improvements, Dr. Moia-Ann Jarrett said she would like to see live/interactive webinars.
Convenience of Online Learning
DentalXP members appreciate the convenience of learning at any time and any location with internet access. “The platform provides high-quality video lectures that enable me to earn CE credits from anywhere to meet my bi-yearly requirements to renew my license,” noted Dr. Jarrett.
As a program director for a General Practice Residency program, Dr. Al-Mashni said, “I always encourage my residents to join DentalXP,” and he appreciates that “all my needs are available in one place.”
Practice Benefits
The true test of the quality and value of any learning platform is applying that newly gained knowledge to clinical practice. For Dr. Jarrett, the knowledge she gained from DentalXP “increased clinical insight, resulting in a higher quality of work and increased ease.”
For Dr. Istanbouli, the primary benefit of his DentalXP online learning experience is an “enhanced understanding of technical aspects and the use of better materials, all of which can upgrade outcomes.” He also said that the variety of topics provides useful information that can help dentists face daily challenges and suggested “more interaction between DentalXP members.”
Overall Satisfaction
Based on the evaluators’ comments, it is clear that the benefits offered by the DentalXP platform extend far beyond CE credits, with several enthusiastically passing their newly gained knowledge along. One such dentist, who took several bone grafting and implant courses via DentalXP and “really enjoys the site,” said he shares what he learns with colleagues at the office and has recommended the platform several times. “I changed a lot after learning from DentalXP,” said Dr. Al-Mashni. “I love it.”
