Online vs Offline Orthodontic Course
Both programs are taught by Dr Hitesh Nagrath and follow the same framework. They differ in format, pace and how much supervised practice you get.
Choose the online course if you want to learn at your own pace, from anywhere, and build your diagnosis and planning skills first. Choose the offline program if you want hands-on training in a small batch of up to 6 dentists, spread over 3 modules in Mumbai. Many dentists do both.

Common questions about choosing
Which is better for a general dentist, the online or the offline course?
The online course builds your knowledge, diagnosis and planning skills at your own pace, while the offline program adds supervised practical training in a small batch. You can join either one or both, depending on your schedule and how hands-on you want the learning to be.
Can I do the online course first and the offline program later?
Yes. The two programs use the same MBT based framework, so the online lessons make a useful preparation before an offline batch.
