Everything about this course is amazing. As a student of the Aesthetic and Restorative program, I think it's safe to say that taking this course was the best decision I took for upgrading my skills and knowledge and giving my career in dentistry a significant boost. The teachers are all experts in the field and extremely cooperative, so you know you're in good hands. It is, overall, a very interactive and collaborative experience, and it makes you get the most out of your learning. I think they're doing a commendable job making good dental education accessible to a wide audience worldwide. This course has truly helped me gain deeper insight into some very valuable topics and actually made it possible for me to apply those techniques in my daily practice with confidence. The LDi community makes you feel part of something bigger and is always there when you're stuck with something.

June 1, 2024Yeephang WongI enrolled in the Diploma in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics March last year and am close to completion. Though mostly online, there is a practical kit sent, so that those who are unfamiliar and have a good idea and be equipped to start. Thoroughly enjoyed this course, with experts in the field collaborating to provide world class education. Plenty of opportunity to discuss your cases and apply the knowledge into real world practice.

I have made a lot of good decisions in my life but enrolling with LDI was the best decision I have ever made.
February 1, 2024May BassettI am thrilled to share my review of the Diploma in Orthodontics and Orthopedics, a program that has profoundly reshaped my career trajectory. Prior to enrolling, my practice primarily focused on short-term orthodontics for adults. However, since completing the course, I have expanded my scope to include a diverse range of patients, spanning conventional orthodontic treatments for both adults and children. I have particularly relished the orthopedic segment of the course, integrating these principles into practice by treating a broad spectrum of patients with functional appliances. Embracing high-quality orthodontics alongside orthopedic jaw development has enabled me to minimize the necessity for extraction orthodontics, a transformation I find immensely rewarding. The online case-based discussions have been exceptional, providing invaluable confidence as I embarked on my initial cases. The personalized 1:1 clinical advice has been instrumental in honing my skills. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to the London Dental Institute for orchestrating this pivotal shift in my dental career, steering it towards a more fulfilling and impactful direction.

My time as a student of the London Dental institute was amazing. It was intense, however, thanks to the concepts I have learnt in the school, my confidence in delivering Orthodontic treatment to my patients has greatly increased. Our lecturers were well detailed in expounding the concepts.
