Meet Dr. Jason Hoium
I’m Dr. Jason Hoium, a general dentist practicing in Saskatchewan, Canada, and the creator of OnlineExodontia.com. I graduated with a D.M.D. from the University of Saskatchewan in 2012 and have been on a mission to redefine continuing education by bridging the gap between academics and the real world.
To this day, I can vividly remember struggling to remove a lower second molar on a nervous patient. Her anesthesia was less than ideal, the case was taking far too long, and part way through I knew I had gotten in over my head. I was lost on what instrument to use, where to elevate, and what to do next. If only I knew then what I know now — it never would have happened.
As a dentist on paper — and an entrepreneur at heart — I only had to experience that sense of total failure once to know I had to do something. I’ve always felt driven to challenge the status quo, and that experience compelled me to help ensure other dentists don’t have to feel undereducated, underprepared, or helpless during extractions.
Creating this course has allowed me to impact thousands of dentists around the world who are now thriving in their practices with greater confidence and enjoyment in oral surgery procedures.
“I have been practicing for 42 years now and have seen all the big names in CE. Dr. Jason ranks right up there with them.”
— Dr. Russell P. Fitton III, DDS
My Perspective on Education
In private practice, I saw countless patients with broken-down teeth needing extractions and quickly experienced the gaps in my formal education. Dental school left me “in the plane on the runway,” with theory but no clear path to take flight. I created this course to act as your flight manual for basic oral surgery, with me as your flight instructor.
OnlineExodontia.com moves beyond outdated CE methods, focusing on clinical pearls and “aha” moments that actually change how you practice.
Why I Created This Course
Watching my father, a veterinarian of over 30 years, retire with a wealth of knowledge made me realize how much we lose when experience isn’t passed down. He often said, “Experience is what you gain one second after you needed it.” That stuck with me.
After years of wishing someone would create a more practical oral surgery course, I decided to do it myself.
Grow Your Surgical Confidence

What Students Are Saying
“If I could give 10 stars I would. If you’re interested in exodontia or need to improve your skills, this course will exceed your expectations. Jason is solid and he truly has a passion to help you succeed.”
— Dr. Chris Elliot, DDS
“What a great course. I have been practicing for 36 years and have learned more from you over the last year than I ever learned in school about oral surgery. Thank you for your expertise in handling difficult extractions.”
— Dr. Jeffrey Eakin, DDS
“After completing military service as a dentist, I was transferring into a setting with far more extractions than I was used to or comfortable with. I enrolled and everything he taught — even many of the recommended elevators and forceps — ended up becoming part of my daily regimen. My nervousness about difficult extractions that become surgical was really cured with this training. Since taking his course I frequently am told by patients that I have provided the smoothest, most pain-free experience with extractions that they’ve ever had.”
— Dr. Nathan Miller, DDS
