Great material. Great research.

I've been reading your website iDD for years. Great material. Great research. So impressed I'm even using you and you're iDD website in my "What I've learned" dental practice management lecture to D3/D4 dental students at Temple University School of Dentistry in Philadelphia, PA USA. When I talk about scanner and technology I cite you often.

I recommend these courses to everyone who is looking to up-skill their day to day practice and learn CAD/CAM.

Great content

Working my way through IDDs great free content before I sink my teeth into the Exocad masterclass. Great content. Dr. Ahmad presents with clarity, humor, and contagious enthusiasm for his subject.
