The first part of the course dealt with comprehensive and detailed lectures and the second module involved the surgical part. We were exposed to a wide variety of cases and different implant systems. This course is on par with international standards in terms of the wide variety of equipments available . We were trained on using the intraoral scanner and this was an exciting experience. Dr. Sampath Kumar sir explained the A-Z in implants during the course. He simplified even the most complex concepts for easy understanding. There were limited participants in the course and all participants received guidance and attention.

This is the best course that I have done and it is life changing. This has provided me a foundation for implant prosthodontics and I look forward to learning more on implants. It has contributed a great deal in my understanding of the diagnostics and treatment planning in implants. The course gave a lot of confidence and exposure to start doing implants in practice.
