Master Clinician Program in Implant Dentistry - Session III (May 28 - 31, 2025)

Master Clinician Program in Implant Dentistry - Session III is organized by Global Institute for Dental Education (gIDE) and will be held from May 28 - 31, 2025 at Apollo Hotel Amsterdam, Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands.

Description:
Increase your confidence in the treatment of partially or completely edentulous patients by learning the standard, advanced, and esthetic protocols for placing and restoring implants in this 1-year, evidence-based, post-graduate certificate program taught by world-class faculty. This Hands-On Training program in Implant Dentistry is conducted over 4 classroom sessions with case reviews and 3 online modules supported by an interactive online community and exam assessments. The small, interactive classroom is designed for learning through lectures, hands-on workshops, and live surgery observation.

Lectures:
The surgical aspect will focus on advanced implant procedures, ridge grafting, sinus augmentation, periimplantitis and complications in implant dentistry. The choice of implant design and its benefits in deficient and poor-quality bone will be presented.

The restorative aspect will focus on full-arch solutions using the analog and full digital workflow, the optimal implant position, abutment choice and the evidence and experience to deliver long-term results.

Live Surgery:
The patient treatment by faculty will focus on the surgical implant treatment of patients with advanced jaw resorption.

Workshops:
The class students will practice procedures using 1) Straumann engaging BLX implants in special plastic models, 2) GBR horizontal and vertical bone augmentation with Resorbable collagen and non-Resorbable PTFE membranes, bone grafts and Growth Factors in fresh pig jaw models, 3) Full-arch implant placement and restoration in special plastic models.
