Live Patient Programs

Real patients. Real practice. Real progress.

Our live patient programs are where clinical knowledge turns into confident action. In Levels 1, 2, and 3, you’ll work with real patients, guided by top experts, as you sharpen your skills and take on more advanced challenges with each level. This isn’t passive learning—it’s real-time growth, real-world cases, and real results. Step up, take the lead, and elevate your practice where it matters most: chairside.
