The Mini Residency in Implant Dentistry is designed to teach each participant the prosthetic and surgical treatment on single tooth, multiple tooth and full arch implant treatment. The program provides Accreditation with the Prosthodontist Masters Series Alumni and a Certificate for 60 CPD points which can also count towards the MRACDS program.

This program provides training in an “A – Z” manner, starting from the basics and progressing to advanced level training concepts. It is suitable for clinicians with minimal dental implant experience and seeking to enhance their skills and knowledge in this field of dentistry.

The Mini Residency consists of 3 modules, each of three days duration (Thursday, Friday and Saturday). Each module has been delicately designed to cover theory and practical aspects of implant treatment. Prior to the first module, each participant will receive some pre-course reading materials. All instruments and materials will be provided at each module, though participants should bring their own loupes.
