Brush up on your dental implant skills

  Posted by: Dental Design      26th March 2022

Dr Lee Gemmell recently completed the Soft Tissue Around Dental Implants course, delivered through BPI Dental Education & Training, and shares her experience:

“I am relatively new to the implant world, but realised how important management of the soft tissues is in order to provide a better overall outcome for my patients. I wanted to improve my skills and my confidence, and this particular programme had been recommended to me by friends who had previously attended.  

“I felt that the course covered all that I wanted to know and more. Information booklets that were given out were comprehensive and well presented, and have been a good resource for me to refer back to during the following months. What sets this event apart is the amount of hands-on experience you get, with Dr Ubhi checking and advising every step of the way. 

“Dr Ubhi was an excellent speaker, very approachable with a wealth of knowledge and experience to share. He and his team organised a great programme, and you really feel looked after, and that they want you to do well. Even at the end of two long days, they were still as enthusiastic as they were at the start. None of the delegates wanted to leave – they could easily add a third day! 

“The programme is good value for money – the venue was good with a nice team of people and the amount of hands-on makes the course very worthwhile. 

“This course has built on my skills and knowledge, and it has impacted on my work in two ways. Firstly, the way I assess new implant cases – I am much more aware of the soft tissues and what is achievable. It allows me to have an in-depth consultation with my patients from the start, which always leads to improved outcomes.

“And secondly, my confidence – I may not use all the techniques all of the time, but it is always nice to have techniques in your back pocket for certain situations. I feel that Dr Ubhi’s course has provided me with that confidence.”
