Our Year One students sure know how to beat the January blues! They have been ringing in the new year with the busiest week on the MSc Dental Implantology course – implant placement week!
Before they start the course, each of our students are allocated a patient that they see from initial consultation right to the delivery of their final implant borne restoration. On the University of Bristol implant course, we select patients for our students as we feel it allows them to focus on the two most important things: patient care and their learning.
Have a look at the ‘before’ and ‘after’ radiographs of one of our Year Ones – what incredible work!
They have been supervised on a one-to-one basis by their tutors Steph Dickinson and Rhys Griffiths. They have also been working with Fayaz Rashid who helped some of them design and produce the guided surgery stents.
We are so grateful to the talented supervisors on our course and a big thank you to our lovely patients – without you, this wouldn’t be possible!
