Oral Implantology Research Institute

Education

Implant dentistry is now recognized as an important modality in oral health care. Majority of dentists have received little or no training in this discipline. The dental schools have been leisurely to incorporate training in implant dentistry in their curricula. Because implant dentistry is a multidisciplinary treatment, some practitioners find it difficult to master the techniques without formal training. The ID-SC has been developed to fulfill a specific need. That is to provide current practitioners in the Middle East, without implantology training, an opportunity to develop the knowledge base and skills necessary for the surgical placement and restoration of dental implants.
