– I really loved the visuals and the lecturer offered great insights in a way that made me want to learn more not just about the teeth but also about the digestion. Furthermore, I was pleasantly surprised that this was only 1 hour long. Many webinars tend to last close to 2 hrs and it really has to be super interesting to make me stay till the end.
