SECOND LEVEL MASTER PROGRAM (Continuing Professional Development)

The Second Level Master Program (CPD course) in Implant Dentistry is designed for the general dentist who has already taken the first step towards the field of implantology. You have already placed implants and now want to develop your practical skills and build up solid, scientific knowledge in order to provide safe, appropriate and efficient treatments.

The 18 months modular takes your time constraints and job responsibilities into consideration. There are six modules of five days each. The teaching modality is blended: a mixed mode approach education that combines on-campus lessons and live distance learning. The first module will take place online and the other five in presence. You have to travel 5 times to University centers during your course of studies. You’ll have live lessons, hands-on courses and live surgeries thus grow through input from our international faculty, guest lectures and fellow students.

After successful completion of the program, graduates will receive the academic title of “Second Level Master Program (CPD course) in Implant Dentistry”. The graduates will be able to independently plan and implement therapy concepts for the treatment of patients requiring dental implant prosthetics. In addition, graduates will also have the skills required to select, analyse and fully integrate into their own practice a full range of treatments and knowledge in this field of dental implantology.

Through theoretical lectures and practical activities on bone blocks, the Second Level Master Program (CPD course) aims to provide the student with specific skills and experience on the main techniques used in implantology. The course concludes with a thesis on implantology topics, which the student will prepare during the year and discuss at the end of the course.
The Second Level Master Program (CPD course) is qualified as SCIENCE  due to its tecnical and scientific characteristics.
