Meeting international standards in professional training and education

  Posted by: Dental Design      17th June 2022

Straumann is proud to support the dental profession by providing, sponsoring and facilitating education for the entire team. Among the programmes currently available is the Foundation in Implant Dentistry (FID) course with the International Team for Implantology (ITI).

Charlotte Stilwell, President-elect of the ITI , commented:

“The FID course was the first of its kind outside a university setting in the UK. It was specifically designed to satisfy the FGDP recommendations of the Training Standards in Implant Dentistry. Since then it has been expanded to also conclude in an internationally-recognised certificate and provide an opportunity for delegates to go onto further university based postgraduate MSc education in the field.

“The teaching is patient-centred and logical in its approach. We have worked hard to keep the education programme relevant to the clinician.

“Our relationship with Straumann today provides the ideal partnership between a scientifically independent academic organisation and an industry partner. The company satisfies our criteria for evidence-based products, which we utilise to demonstrate the implant solutions we use and teach.”
