Which pathway is for you

Once you have decided that inputting dental implants into your dental career, one of the hardest steps to take is to decide which route in education is best for you.

Over the past few years, for many, it has seemed that the MSc route at an accredited University will provide you with the best grounding for implant dentistry, but this would suggest that you already had a basis in surgical dentistry and restorative dentistry which you could build on with a deeper knowledge and an MSc.

For others it was previously a weekend course and has now become the ubiquitous ‘year long’ course that generally spreads 12-15 modules over a year encompassing all aspects of implant dentistry.

None of these courses though will select patients for you from your own practice, nor will they provide you the hours to practice surgical dentistry or the insight to practice restorative dentistry. Very few of these courses will introduce you to the concept of melding ethical business with clinical skills in practice.

If you were to search dental implant courses UK you would have thousands and thousands of selections to choose from. In order to select the right one for you it is important to know who you are and what type of clinician you would like to be.

As is always the case in selecting a project like this, the cheapest or the fastest is not necessarily the best for you (although it may be). If you consider yourself an ethical, honest and high quality practitioner it’s probably best you choose a course of that nature in order to forward your skills to continue to be the same type of practitioner you were at the start of the course when you reach the end.

At The Campbell Academy we would always tell delegates who are beginning to embark on a pathway of implant dentistry that the road is long, the investment is great and the returns are magnificent to those who go about it in the right way. 

If you are ready for that then The Campbell Academy Year Implant course may just be the option for you. Contact us to discuss your options.
