This "Master class" program in Surgical Implant Dentistry will be held over seven modules throughout the year. The small group teaching is designed to give participants a close up teaching experience with presenters and mentors. The course is aimed at dental practitioners who would like to undertake the surgical aspects of implant treatment. At the end of the course participants should be able to place straightforward implants in their practice. The course covers treatment planning for implants using the participants own patients and supervised placement of implants in these patients. Participants applying for this course must have previous experience in the delivery of implant restorations. Applicants will be selected for this course based on submitted evidence of experience in the delivery of implant restorations.
At the conclusion of the program particiants should have:
an in-depth understanding of the biological processes of osseointegration in general.
an in-depth understanding of surgical diagnosis, treatment planning and surgical management of simple surgical cases.
Through a series of practical exercises and hands-on surgical training, participants should be familiar with the surgical implant placement in simple clinical situations.
Participants will be familiar with ITI implant componentry and the reasons why implant treatments may be useful in their practices. Participants should feel able to begin placing implants in uncomplicated clinical situations.
Module One
Introduction
Biological Principles
Restorative Case Assessment
Restorative principles
Surgical Case Assessment
Radiological Assessment
SAC Classification
Treatment Planning and Case Selection
Allocation of mentors
Treatment planning of cases from Module 1 for discussion at start of Module 2
Module 2
Treatment Planning and Case Selection
Basic surgical principles
Hands-on bench exercise involving placement of implants into mounted plastic jaws
Treatment planning of own cases with mentor between Modules 2 and 3. A presentation will be available to show participants what they need to prepare for Module 3.
Module 3
Case Presentations. This module is mandatory. Participants cannot move onto the next module unless this module is completed.
Each participant will present three cases that have been selected from their practices. These cases will fulfil the SAC classification for simple surgical cases.
Each case presentation will be approximately 15 minutes in duration
Each participant will present their first case in turn until all eight participants have presented. This will follow with the presentation of participant’s second case in turn, followed by the third case.
From these cases, each participant in conjunction with the convenor and mentor, will select two cases for surgical treatment.
Module 4
Implant placement by participants at Melbourne Dental Clinic under mentor supervision. Participants to bring in their own pre-selected patient. Participants will be responsible for arranging to have their patients attend MDC for surgery.
Appropriate consent will need to be obtained and submitted prior to this session.
Surgical trainers will complete assessment forms for each participant.
Module 5
Healing and Osseointegration
Survival and Success
Aesthetic Outcomes
Afternoon hands-on session. Participant and dental assistant training in surgical set up and cross-infection control. Participants to bring in their dental nurses to this session.
Module 6
Placement of implants by participants with their own dental nurse present. This session is supervised by mentor.
Module 7
Formative Feedback
Final case presentations. Each participant will present their treated cases, including the initial assessment, treatment plan, surgical management and subsequent restorative treatment.
