What Docs are Saying About Aligner Fellowship 2.0

Dr. DeFelice

As amazing as the 1.0 course was, 2.0 was EVEN BETTER.  The new lecturers really added fresh perspectives.  This course should be the bare minimum certification course and NOT OPTIONAL before someone uses Invisalign.

Dr. Croft

Amazing course, glad I finally took it as it has significantly increased my understanding of how to better set up my Invisalign cases and look at the ClinChecks in a different perspective than I had before the course.

Dr. Hasan

I enrolled in another course in Europe a year before regarding Invisalign treatment but it was so unorganized that I couldn’t continue.  I am regretting I didn’t join this course much earlier.  I would have saved money and time in becoming skilled and confident in treating cases with clear aligners.
