The instructor was great but you have to be careful with what you actually sign up for. I attended an introductory section and paid for the follow - up course, called Seminar #1 with a discounted rate of $750. After finishing the 3-days weekend course (as I was given the access code for), I got an invoice of $1500 the next day. POS not only mis-presented the content of the “4-days course” in the introductory section but they also automatically enrolled you the next course without telling you. Finally, they made an unauthorized charge to your card $1500 since “You already received the service, Ma’am” – per Vanessa – their accountant. You will be lured into a trap and end up paying more than what you was told.

Learning orthodontics was more than increasing my knowledge of dentistry. It was a whole new subject opening many windows to the vast horizon of knowledge we need to pursue. It increased my confidence to better serve my patients and be rewarded financially. POS made this education easy to attain with ongoing support and friendly instructors. Either doing handful of cases or running a practice highly focused on orthodontics, I recommend going for it.

I am a graduate from traditional Ortho course . If you wanted to learn and continue to learn POS is the place to go. I enjoyed the recent virtual seminar with aligner course. POS made it so much easy to attend virtual seminar at the comfort of your home rather traveling. I literally could attend whatever class I want without waiting, in a different city ( or in a different country ) I would Strongly encourage POS to continue to offer the virtual seminars . This is an add on apart from other good things they are offering!

POS provides exceptional support for general dentists to treat orthodontic cases confidently and at a very high level. Since incorporating POS into my practice, I have transformed my practice into a true comprehensive care center, and has allowed to grow other disciplines besides orthodontics in a way that I would not have imagined. Thanks to the instructors, mentors, and team that make this happen!

There arent enough stars to express my appreciation for POS! When I say this company changed my life, its not even a slight exaggeration. I went from someone who had a job that I (mostly) liked, to someone who has a career I absolutely love! POS instructors and staff shared the joy of ortho with me and enabled me to consistently give patients a smile that is beautiful, healthy and allows them to function well. You wont find the kind of support that the POS family offers students and graduates of the course in any other continuing education program.

I am very happy with the POS seminars. They are quality seminars with dedicated instructors. You always have an opportunity to ask questions. Being able to retake the seminars for free is pretty amazing. I have recommended POS to many dentists.

Learning ortho with POS many years ago, changed my life for good. I started having no idea, but with POS I was able to learn enough ortho to treat many patients. I liked it so much that ended becoming an Instructor. I would recomend POS seminars to anywone who would like to enjoy ortho.

After a lot of thinking, I finally joined this course in 2012. This turned out to be the best decision I have made in my dental career.The combination of software, supplies and support that POS offers allows you to deliver the highest quality of orthodontic care for your patients.I am now able to treat any type of orthodontic case that comes to my practice.Thank you POS

In my opinion POS offers the best and most complete orthodontic education that one can get outside of the specialty. Their strength isnt only in the thoroughness in which they teach ortho but in the seemingly endless resources that are available to their graduates. Thank you for your great work and continued support.

POS Seminars gaved me the opportunity to expand my office and build an orthodontic career of more then 20 years. You can always stay up to date with the newest techniques by retaking the seminars for free as they have a lifelong free retake policy. Great program!

I feel so fortunate to have found progressive orthodontics. When my dream of going to ortho school didn’t pan out I thought I would be limited to doing Invisalign for the rest of my life. They allow you to sit in on a seminar to see if it’s something you’re interested in. And from that trial day I could tell the level of education was better than some unnamed Ortho programs I did a fellowship with. The lectures were very informative, and thorough. I graduated several years ago and I now mostly do ortho in my office. I have been able to make such a difference in so many patients’ lives and I feel so much joy in being about to make such a difference. I have been able to do full mouth reconstruction cases because I set up the teeth exactly where I want for restorative and I don’t have to communicate with a separate ortho office. A few things I have to admit: that the prices for the supplies from progressive is a little high and I had my fair share of getting treatment plans that were less than ideal at the beginning. Luckily Dr Dana always stood behind the work of all the instructors and helped me out when treatment plans were not ideal. I also was able to learn a lot from him in person as I attended his study club. There are other instructors that are an absolute goldmine of knowledge and I feel so lucky to be able to get help from them when I need it!The software that I still am able to use is really great and makes treatment planning a breeze now that I have some experience. They seem to constantly be updating and improving it. The staff is very helpful with anything you might need. The library online and also the forum is a really great way to continue learning. They also put out new continuing education. I have taken a few. The aligner course is definitely a must for anyone wanting to do clear aligners correctly. My friends are amazed at the ortho cases I have done and I definitely would not be here without progressive orthodontics. I can’t suggest this course enough to anyone interested in doing comprehensive orthodontics.

I highly recommend Progressive Orthodontic Seminars if you have any interest in integrating ortho into your dental practice. The seminars are very comprehensive and the instructors are always willing to help. After completing the program they offer additional training as well as free retakes. I love being part of the Progressive family!

I took the Progressive Orthodontics Seminar series starting in late 2015 with IAT to get started quicker then took the 12 session in person series. Great comprehensive orthodontic training that allows you to treat all the cases you want with optional support from skilled instructors. My only regret is that I did not take this training sooner.

Progressive Orthodontic Seminars is by far the most comprehensive CE course I have taken and I have taken many. It is also the best ROI I have made along with implant education. I have researched other ortho courses but ended up with POS because of their technology as well as continuing support whenever you need it. I used to be an engineer and I must say that Dr. Don McGann who is the founder of POS is a genius. His thinking is like an engineer when he developed technology to allow you to do orthodontic without needing to bend wires. They have great support system where you can get support online as well as retake courses for free. They teach you from A to Z in orthodontic. They support you throughout your orthodontic career from the time you learn to crawl to the time you can run on your own. You can do easy cases or hard cases depending on you. I have taken the course since 2004 and have been doing all cases in my practice. We treat what we know; so if all you have is a hammer then everything is going to look like a nail to you. Dont make that mistake of treating patients with a tunnel vision - Expand your knowledge and provide comprehensive treatment. It definitely makes practicing more enjoyable as well as making me a better dentist.

Dentistry today is more demanding than ever and its vital to be as productive as possible. I graduated the Progressive Orthodontics series early in my career. Adding ortho to my procedure mix, along with the increased income over the years, allowed me to retire early. Highly recommended.

I have been successfully treating ortho patients for almost 10 years now thanks to the education, and mentoring I received. There is no better system for developing your confidence in treating orthodontic cases.

After 34 years of practicing dentistry I have never found a better course to make me a better dentist. It has allowed me to implement Orthodontics into my busy practice and teach me how to complement Orthodontics with all other facets of dentistry.
