I know when I started learning implants, I had a lot of theory. Yet when it came time to do the surgery, I found that the theory did not translate that well to practice.
No one can describe the feeling of an implant drill popping through the cortical bone. No one can read a book and easily carry out a split flap with membrane and xenograft. There are things you must see and do to understand the feel.
More importantly, grafting is often taught as an afterthought to placing implants even though it is really the most important and difficult part of the procedure.
I started this Implant Live™ Patient course to provide the sort of live surgery experience to take you from theory to practice. The focus is on doing surgery continuously for six days.
In my early years, I did similar courses overseas, however I found that because the regulatory environment was different, the techniques we learned were not always appropriate for Australia.
Doing our Implant Live™ Patient course here, you learn the focus on documentation, planning and risk management needed for the working in Australia on Australian patients. Surgically, there will be a heavy focus on grafting, allowing the grafts to heal, and then placing the implants several months later. You will learn to graft and sinus lift before you learn to drill.
This course will allow you to experience:
An important part of this course is the opportunity to experience real patient follow-up and/or there possible complications.
It’s imperative to see the consequences of your surgery, whether they are good or bad.
You will have an experienced mentor to help and guide you through this process and deal with any difficulties.
