The Boston University Implant fellowship programs are well-structured, unbiased training program in both the surgical and restorative aspects of implant dentistry. Fellows completing these programs will have a good understanding of the biology necessary to successfully place and maintain dental implants, address complications both in the surgical and restorative arenas, and provide their patients with comprehensive treatments.
One-year Program
The 12 month-long program is specifically designed to improve the fellows’ surgical skills through flap design, bone grafting, soft tissue grafting techniques and socket preservation procedures.
Two-year Program
The 24 month-long program is geared towards more advanced surgical procedures as well as restorations of implants.
Both programs will offer integration of digital dentistry with single-unit cases to complex fully edentulous cases. Comprehensive knowledge and hands-on experience from virtual treatment planning, digital surgical guide design and fabrication, 3D printed/milled immediate temporization, to final prosthesis will be offered.
