McGill University, Faculty of Dental Medicine and Oral Health Sciences is an ADA CERP-recognized provider. Our courses offer continuing education credits in line with the guidelines of the “Ordre des Dentistes du Québec” (ODQ). Participants are responsible for maintaining their own records and submitting course credit information to the appropriate licensure board. After all the courses, the participants will receive a certificate of attendance indicating the credit hours earned.

For ODQ member dentists, the continuing education policy grants 1 CE unit for each hour of theoretical training and 2 CE units for each hour of hands-on training. For dental hygienists who are members of the OHDQ and ADA CERP member dentists, continuing education credits are based on the total hours of educational activity, regardless of whether the training is theoretical or practical.

We invite you to participate in any of our Continuing Dental Education programs. You can attend our webinars, mini-residencies, travel & learn courses. The only exception is for hands-on patient care courses.

While the Forensic Dentistry program provides both theoretical and practical knowledge in the field, successful completion of all four modules helps you acquire the necessary education, training, and experience to partially meet the eligibility requirements for the American Board of Forensic Odontology. Additionally, all modules offer Continuing Education credits, which can be applied towards certification with the Odontology Section of The American Academy of Forensic Sciences. However, full board certification and eligibility to practice in the U.S. may require meeting additional criteria beyond the course.

The program requires a minimum of 15 hours of coursework per week for modules 1 to 4. Participants need to set aside sufficient time for weekly readings, assignments, and a one-hour Zoom meeting on Monday evenings to discuss assignments with Dr. Dorion. While the schedule is structured, it can be managed with careful time planning. However, you should evaluate whether this commitment fits into your current schedule.

Yes, it’s acceptable. Although a good understanding of Photoshop/Creative Cloud® is expected, if you’re willing to familiarize yourself with the software before the course begins, you should be able to keep up with the program.

Yes, the course is suitable for those without prior forensic dentistry experience. The program is open to participants who have a DDS, DMD, or an equivalent degree and at least five years of clinical experience.

Yes, you can access the course materials and lectures through a smartphone, provided you have the necessary apps like Zoom. The materials will be available in "MyCourses".

The program requires the completion of all four modules in a specific sequence. Upon successfully completing all modules, participants will receive a certificate of completion. The payment is divided into two semesters: the first payment is due by August 1st, covering Modules 1, 2, and 3, while the second payment is due by December 1st for Module 4.

Career opportunities after completing the Forensic Dentistry program can vary depending on your experience, qualifications, and location. Our program is one of only two training programs recognized by the American Board of Forensic Odontology, which is an important credential in the field. For more details on certification requirements, you can contact the American Board of Forensic Odontology directly at https://abfo.org/. Additionally, Dr. Dorion discusses career opportunities and pathways during the course to help guide participants in this field.
