Surgical Placement Fundamentals

Foundation Course 1

Begin your implant journey by learning sound fundamentals. 

This 20 CE course provides a didactic foundation for enrollees who will continue into the clinical (live patient) phase of the Entry Point continuum. It is also an excellent standalone course for those who want an introduction into the world of oral implantology.

This course is more than a survey of implantology in the abstract; it is specifically designed to prepare you for the placement of starter-case implants in your own practice.

 

Online Course Format:

  • Complete 8 self-paced, didactic modules and assessments before the hands-on model webinar.

    NOTE: This course can be taken as part of the Entry Pointcontinuum or as a standalone course.

    Frequently Asked Questions:

    Who is Entry Point Continuum for? Beginners in implantology are welcome — however, Entry Point is more than a beginner’s continuum. It is also designed for those who have previous implant training, but who still need help with clinical implementation. There are many who have taken an AAID maxi course, for example, who still need the refresher that our didactic courses provide, and the real-time clinical experience that our live patient sessions provide.

    Are there hands-on sessions in this course? Yes. This is a classroom course, but you will love the hands-on training that it provides. There are 8 self-paced, didactic modules and assessments before the hands-on model webinar. The hands-on model webinar will be accessed through the KCSI Learning Portal. Participants are encouraged to participate during the live hands-on model session. The webinar will be recorded and available to watch for one year with course access. Several practical skills will be covered in a hands-on format, including manipulating the implant kit, placing implants in models, and suturing.
