Dental Implant Education - New York Implant Institute - Implant Dentistry Training

 

New York Implant Institute was founded in 2008 with a mission to provide an exceptional continuing education for general dentists, specialists, and staff. Our mission is to provide the participants with basic knowledge, and hands-on experience in implant dentistry. Eliminating confusing terminology, and easy to understand teaching methodology allows participants to establish a good educational foundation and gain confidence in placing and restoring single tooth implants immediately following the course. The live surgery session allows participants to bring their own patients for implant placement under direct supervision. In addition to providing basic training in dental implants, the New York Implant Institute also   offers course on advanced techniques.

Limited enrollment and class size allows the doctors to interact and freely ask questions in a very informal and personable environment. The post-course mentoring program provides the opportunity for participants to call and discuss cases and share ideas with their instructors/peer group to enhance the learning experience.

It has been our deliberate effort to ensure that our participants feel one hundred percent confident about placing and restoring implants by the end of the course. So far we have been able to achieve this goal and hope to maintain this level of excellence in the future.

BEGINNERS COURSE

Each participant will learn the placement of root form dental implants in a unique simplified step-by-step fashion. This is followed by a hands-on session in establishing diagnosis and treatment plans on actual cases provided by the New York Implant Institute. Each participant will then perform these procedures on models, concluding with performing live surgery under the direct supervision of the course instructor. The objective of this course is to establish clinical comfort with placement of dental implants, manipulation of surgical flaps, obtaining of tension free surgical closure with proper suture materials and suturing techniques, followed by a step-by-step guide to restoring the implant .

The basic course also includes the learning of the fundamentals of biomechanics the biology of bone, as well as the rationale for the diagnosis, treatment planning, and the clinical practice of placing root form dental implants. The course will also cover pre and post surgical considerations, possible post surgical infections, and the management of complications.

BONE GRAFTING AND IMMEDIATE PLACEMENT (Advance Course)

This lecture provides an overview of pertinent concepts and principles of Immediate Implant Placement and Bone Grafting. Related anatomical considerations to dentoalveolar surgery, biology of healing, surgical closure, advanced soft tissue surgical techniques for restoring three dimensional soft tissue topography, sculpting gingival tissues to enhance patients smiles, and predictably restore immediate placement cases are also covered.

The advanced course will expose participants to a wide range of flap designs for atraumatic extractions, and immediate implant surgery with principles of bone remodeling in dental implant therapy. Participants will learn bone grafting techniques with an emphasis on socket preservation and grafting techniques involved with immediate implant placement. An overview of available suture materials, surgical techniques, and how they should be selected for various surgical procedures will be discussed. On day 2, a hands on session will bring everything into perspective for the participants.

 

Our commitment to excellence and dedication to implant dentistry has led us to constantly improve our program and add more features critical to the learning process. With the help and guidance from our Board of Advisors (who are experts in various fields of dentistry), and past course participants, we have been able to achieve our educational goals consistently and effectively. We strive to assure you of accomplishing your educational goals, and applaud your commitment to your own excellence and professional growth.
