Dental CE Course: Hands On Implant Placement with Live Patient Surgeries

Course Overview

This activity composed of both hands on and lecture allows those who have already completed an intense course of didactic study of implant dentistry (e.g., GHSU Maxi Course) to combine that knowledge with the clinical experience afforded only through actual live surgery. To maximize this opportunity, the course will allow at least six patient surgeries with a minimum of six implants placed.

***Limited to 9 Participants***
