have questions?
What support is available after I complete the course?
We offer ongoing mentorship and support to all alumni. Our experts are available to help with case planning, troubleshooting, and any other questions you may have.
What experience level do I need to take a course?
Our courses are designed for dentists at all skill levels—whether you're placing your first implant or looking to advance your technique. We start with foundational courses and offer advanced courses for experienced practitioners. During your training, our faculty provides personalized, hands-on instruction tailored to your current skill level, helping you build confidence at your own pace. If you're unsure which course is right for you, contact us and we'll help you choose the best fit based on your experience and goals.
Do I need to provide my own patients for the live surgery?
There’s no need to bring your own patients; we've got that covered for you. We provide patients specifically for the live surgeries to ensure you can focus entirely on mastering your skills in managing complications. Of course, if you prefer to work with your own patients, you’re welcome to bring them along.
What does "live patient surgery" mean, and how does it work?
Live patient surgery means you'll actually perform implant procedures on real patients during your course—not just observe or practice on models. Depending on the course, you can either bring your own patient or work with patients we provide for you. Our faculty guides you through each step of the procedure, offering personalized instruction and real-time feedback. This hands-on approach ensures you gain practical experience that translates directly to your practice. We also handle the temporary Ohio dental license for out-of-state participants, so you can focus on learning.
