With 35 verified free courses, Pulpdent is #19 of 70 providers by course count. General Dentistry anchors the list (18 of 35 courses), with the remainder spread across 6 other specialty areas. Almost all of it comes as roughly one-hour webinars (1.0 hr average) — a drip-feed library rather than study-day material.
Certificates are effectively standard: 35 of 35 courses (100%) indicate one, comfortably above the 94% directory average — a low-friction pick for audited records.
The feed moves quickly: 35 courses added in the past quarter alone (latest 2026-07-07). Title analysis points to recurring depth in bioactive, materials, restorative, practice and oral.

Making the most of Pulpdent
Pulpdent's library leans clearly towards General Dentistry — 51% of its courses sit there — so it rewards being treated as a focused set rather than a grab-bag. A sensible way in: Precision and Permanence: The Complete Workflow... (General Dentistry, ~1 hr), then All About Varnishes (General Dentistry, ~1 hr), then Bio-Interactive Materials: A Restorative Renaissance Arising (Restorative, ~1 hr). Each link opens the course card here first, so you can favourite it or log it before heading to the provider.
Completed in full this library represents ~37 hours — few people will do all 37, but it comfortably anchors one renewal period's self-directed learning. Every course in this library issues a certificate, so each one can go straight into an audit file.
