    Awesome course. A much-needed refresher. I guess I will have to come again after some time to refresh my memory of some issues, especially in the first 3 or 4 weeks. Thank you, U Penn.

    This is really a good course for anyone who is interested or associated with any fields related to dentistry. This will also provide some basic knowledge to those who are general practitioners and face some difficulties in identify some common dental problems.

    I suggest every medical and paramedical students should do this course if they are interested in knowing detailed information about dentistry.

    I was initially worried that this course would be overly complex and difficult as a predental student but I was pleasantly surprised! This course showed me how much I have been able to learn about dentistry, dental pathology, and dental specialties. While there were chapters that were heavy in anatomy, the modules were easily digestible and very educational. Loved this course!

    The Quiz is good! I found it difficult to follow along as a non native english speaker. Months after completing the course I recall basics of dental medicine, some of which is useful to me personally. I would have to repeat and practice anatomy, diseases, et cetera to not forget about it while I do not have to apply this specific knowledge in everyday life.

    These teachers are geniuses.

    They really have to study hard for all those years. I never thought there was so much on the mouth, and so complex what there was.

    The course opens our mind, and I believe it makes appreciate more our dentist.

    I find this course very interesting. Everything was explained in simple, but comprehensive way. I didn't know almost anything about dentistry when I started and I didn't have to repeat any lesson to understand the topic. Great done.
