One of the featured instructors in the Indirect Restorative Course Series, Dr Alan Atlas, clinical professor of restorative dentistry and endodontics at the University of Pennsylvania in the US, highlighted the innovative approach to learning in the new courses. He stated: “As Albert Einstein once said, ‘We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.’ Interactive procedure-based learning makes online learning more fun, interesting and engaging. This course series is designed to inspire a fresh perspective and elevate the learning experience for dental professionals.”
