Important Disclaimers for OICDE Continuing Education Programs

The continuing education (CE) programs offered by Online International Continuing Dental Education (OICDE and Onlineicde) are designed and provided exclusively for continuing dental educational purposes only. These programs, including all video streaming content, lectures, materials, and related resources available through OICDE.com, Onlineicde.com, our LinkedIn page and YouTube channel are intended solely to enhance the knowledge and skills of licensed dental professionals in a general educational context. They do not, under any circumstances, constitute medical, dental, or clinical advice, nor are they intended to replace, supersede, or substitute for the independent professional judgment of a dentist or other qualified healthcare provider in relation to the diagnosis, treatment, management, or overall care of any specific patient’s dental, medical, or health condition.

OICDE expressly disclaims any and all liability, responsibility, or accountability for any misapplication, misuse, misunderstanding, or improper interpretation of the educational content provided. This includes, but is not limited to, any errors in clinical judgment, diagnostic decisions, treatment planning, procedural execution, patient outcomes, or adverse events that may arise from the application or attempted application of information obtained from our CE programs. Participants acknowledge and agree that the ultimate responsibility for all clinical decisions, patient care, and professional conduct rests entirely with the individual dental professional taking one of our CE programs, who must exercise their own discretion, expertise, and adherence to applicable laws, regulations, ethical standards, and best practices in dentistry.

As an accredited provider through the Program Approval for Continuing Education (PACE) of the Academy of General Dentistry (AGD), OICDE’s programs undergo rigorous and thorough review by the PACE committee to ensure they meet high standards of quality, relevance, and educational integrity. This accreditation signifies that our content has been vetted for accuracy, objectivity, and compliance with established guidelines; however, it does not imply endorsement of any specific clinical techniques, products, or outcomes, nor does it absolve participants from their duty to critically evaluate and appropriately integrate the material into their practice.

It is the sole responsibility of each dental professional to fully understand and assess their own clinical capabilities, scope of practice, and limitations before applying any concepts, techniques, or information derived from OICDE and Onlineicde’s educational materials in real-world clinical endeavors. Professionals must ensure that their use of this knowledge aligns with their licensure requirements, local regulations, evidence-based standards, and the unique needs of each patient. OICDE and Onlineicde strongly recommends consulting with peers, mentors, or specialists as needed and staying current with evolving dental research and guidelines. By accessing or participating in any OICDE and Onlineicde CE program, you affirm your understanding and acceptance of these terms, and you agree to hold OICDE, its affiliates, instructors, and representatives harmless from any claims, damages, or liabilities arising from your use or reliance on the provided content.

This disclaimer applies to all formats and platforms where OICDE and Onlineicde content is disseminated and must be reviewed and acknowledged by all users prior to engagement. For any questions regarding this disclaimer or our accreditation, please contact us at charlesarcoria@protonmail.com.
