In 2001, Dr Louie Al-Faraje established the California Implant Institute (CII) in San Diego, California, to provide quality continuing education courses in dental implants and related topics to practicing dentists from all over the world.
In 2012, CII introduced their live-patient Intermediate to Advanced training program, which provides advanced, state-of-the-art training in oral implantology procedures in their facilities in Rosarito, Mexico, located just 28 miles south of the US border. In 2015, CIl began offering their All-on-4 treatment program, followed by the zygomatic and pterygoid implant program in 2021. Expert clinicians guide practicing dentists through the procedures of extractions, bone grafting, and implant placement to provide them with the knowledge and confidence to perform this treatment safely and effectively for their own patients.
California Implant Institute is a global institute with a large number of international students. During the last 25 years, more than 4000 oral health professionals from 40+ countries have attended their programs.
