The ITI (International Team for Implantology - UK and Ireland)

On Friday I attended the ITI UK and Ireland Fellows meeting, Fellows dinner and Annual Scientific meeting, I think it was my 15th such meeting as a Fellow. 

I have been a member of the ITI since the early 2000’s when there was no such thing as a Fellows of the ITI, in round about 2004 I was nominated for membership (which then later became Fellowship) and at that stage I became the 15th member in the United Kingdom. 

Today there are over a thousand. 

There are in the region of 60 fellows in the UK and 16,000 members worldwide. 

I have given many hours and days of work to the ITI over many projects and 3 years on the leadership group, not because it paid me (it didn’t really) and not because it made me famous ( it definitely didn’t) but because it is an organisation that has stuck to its principles to try and do the right thing, for all the time that I have been involved. 

I have watched other such associations and organisations be pulled from pillar to post, their ethics challenged and their principles under-mined, but not the ITI. 

If you are involved in Implant Dentistry you may not agree at all with the ITI or with what it suggests or the principles which it stands for, but you can not argue that it has stuck by those principles through its time.
