PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The Advanced Dental Implant Studies Program is an intense one year commitment in which participants are coached on advanced clinical concepts, which are incorporated in their private practices.
The group meets with Dr. Edward Mills in Atlanta for three day sessions four times per year, during which time participants focus on advanced diagnosis, treatment planning, surgical techniques and restoration of complex implant supported prosthetics. The class roster will be made up of approximately 78 clinicians, with approximately half of the group having previously spent 1 to 8 years in Advanced Dental Implant Studies beyond a Comprehensive Implant Training Program. The program has evolved into an intellectual and clinical think tank, which stimulates and inspires a high level of clinical competence. The program will prepare participants for the AAID Associate Fellow and Fellow Exams, the ICOI Diplomate Oral Interview and Written Exam, as well as the ABOI Diplomat Exam. Individual clinicians will hone their diagnostic, surgical, and prosthetic skills utilizing a case-based learning methodology. The director of the program, Dr. Edward Mills, functions as an instructor and a facilitator for the group, as well as a mentor and coach for each participant. Each participant is expected to complete clinical cases, as well as specific research objectives between each session. This program is an exceptional opportunity for the serious clinician to continue to develop while enhancing his patient care, as well as the prosperity of his practice.
