About this course

This new course, and the first dental postgraduate programme at BSMS, draws upon the experience of senior and established dental implant surgeons and restorative specialists in Kent, Surrey and Sussex. The course adopts an individualised approach in surgical training, utilising work based assessments (WBAs) and direct observed procedural skills (DOPS) so that delegates will be able to rapidly progress to more advanced techniques after successfully completing their competency-based assessments. Assignments will include clinical case presentations and short essays.

Who is it for?

The course is aimed at postgraduate level dentists who are interested in developing their dental implant experience: from early-stage dental implant surgeons to more experienced clinicians who want to consolidate their knowledge with a certificate with a PG certificate or diploma in implant dentistry.

Key areas of study • Patient assessment • Treatment planning • Principles of surgery and implant surgery • Occlusion and restorative perspectives of implant dentistry • Bone preservation, bone grafting and soft tissue techniques • Managing partially dentate and edentulous cases • Emerging techniques in implant dentistry • Setting up and maintaining your own personalised dental implant practice

What are the benefits?

This programme will be uniquely individualised and focused to student needs. Mentoring will be available to enable rapid progression, if appropriate, to more advanced techniques for the established dental implant surgeon. A more focused approach to basics in implant dentistry will also be available for the early-stage dental implant surgeon. The programme also includes emerging techniques with digital workflow and immediate load full arch techniques; hands on surgery with dry-bone/stereolithographic model workshops in phantom head facility; live surgery; cadaveric hands-on training and mentoring.

This course is jointly validated by the University of Brighton and the University of Sussex.
