Contemporary standards of care, as well as ethical and legal issues, dictate the incorporation of dental implants into the general dental practice. Given the simplicity of current implant systems, most general dentists already possess the clinical expertise necessary to provide basic implant restorative services to their patients. However, due to the restricted manner in which dental implant training was propagated in the United States, and perhaps due to its foreign origins, many competent dentists seem unaware of this greatly beneficial innovation. There are a variety of educational resources available for the uninitiated dentist to gain proficiency in basic implant dentistry. The ideal education in implant dentistry provides supervised hands-on clinical training on live patients as well as didactic instruction by recognized teachers in implant dentistry. Such education may or may not be devoid of commercial bias. This paper will describe many of these opportunities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
