Designed for either the general dentist or specialist, the Surgical Prosthetic Mentorship Program provides the highest level of training in both the surgical and prosthetic areas of implant dentistry.
The Surgical Prosthetic Mentorship Program is divided into two weekend sessions which total seven days. A dentist registering into this program must complete both weekends. This live-patient implant training is designed to provide a dentist with the knowledge and skills to confidently implement oral implantology into their practice.

“A great way to grow one’s practice and help many patients is to learn to offer implants as treatment modality. PI is the best place for a dentist to learn surgical placement and restoration of dental implants. This is important as the cases are planned around the restoration, not the other way around. You cannot miss.”

The final two days will be a focused review of pertinent information, live-patient implant training, and group discussions both pre-surgery and post-surgery. Dentists are encouraged to bring one patient each and should expect to incur the costs of materials used. Should a dentist like to bring an additional patient, the additional charge is $2000. Should a dentist need a patient supplied, we can attempt to supply one for you, however this will depend on availability of patients and can not be guaranteed, please speak to a representative for more information.
