6-Month Certificate in Implantology – Final Curriculum
Target Audience: Fresh dental graduates & senior-year undergraduates
Format: Modular | 1 contact day/month | Hybrid (Lectures + Hands-On + Clinical)
Duration: ~20–25 hours/month (120–150 total hours)
Faculty Involvement:- Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons (3) → surgical anatomy, implant placement, sinus lifts, complications- Prosthodontists (2) → prosthetic workflows, occlusion, full-arch rehab, digital workflow- Periodontist (1) → soft tissue management, GBR, peri-implant health, maintenance
Certificate Awarded: After successful completion of theory + OSCE + clinical/simulation assessment
Month 1 – Fundamentals of Implant Dentistry
Module: Introduction to Oral Implantology
Topics:- History & evolution of implantology- Implant types & systems (two-piece vs one-piece, bone vs tissue level) – OMFS- Surgical anatomy: maxilla, mandible, ID canal, sinus – OMFS- Biology & biomechanics of osseointegration – Periodontist- Prosthetic options overview – Prosthodontist
Hands-On / Simulation:- Implant component identification (demo kits)- Radiographic interpretation exercises (OPG, CBCT basics)- Anatomy marking on typodonts- Live/simulated case observation
Assessment:- 20 MCQs (history, anatomy, osseointegration)- OSPE: anatomical landmarks identification
Month 2 – Diagnostics & Treatment Planning
Module: Implant Case Selection & Digital Planning
Topics:- Diagnostic imaging: OPG, CBCT – OMFS- Ridge classification (Atwood, Misch) – Periodontist- Medical considerations & contraindications – Periodontist- Digital planning workflows – Prosthodontist- Guided surgery concepts, wax-up, surgical stents – Prosthodontist
Hands-On / Simulation:- CBCT-based planning software (Large V, Vatech, Shining 3D)- Surgical guide fabrication & virtual implant planning
Assessment:- MCQs (diagnosis, ridge classification)- Case-based treatment planning presentation (1 case)
Month 3 – Surgical Principles in Implantology
Module: Basic Implant Surgery & Soft Tissue Management
Topics:- Flap design & suturing in implantology – OMFS- Drilling protocols, insertion torque, primary stability – OMFS- Asepsis & infection control – OMFS- Single-tooth replacement in healed ridges – OMFS
