Implant restoration drive

23 September 2014

General dental practitioners are being encouraged to learn to complete the final restoration phase of implant treatment for their patients.  

Dentsply Implants is promoting a programme of free local events at implant treatment clinics throughout the UK.  The ‘R£LAX’ package includes ongoing support and a mini prosthetics kit. 

Increasing numbers of general practitioners are recognising that dental implants should be the preferred option to replace missing teeth.  The training provided within the ‘R£LAX’ programme gives clinicians more confidence to discuss this treatment option with their patients.   Attendees see for themselves how simple and profitable it is to restore the most common implant cases.  

Wendy Fidoe of Blyburgate Dental, Beccles, Suffolk recently attended a ‘R£LAX’ event held by Hamed Karimi at Norfolk Dental Specialists in Norwich.  Wendy explains, “I have since referred a patient for a single anterior implant, which I then restored myself.  I found this quite straightforward.  I am now able to discuss this treatment option in more detail with my patients.   It is a real benefit to be able to tell them that I can restore implant cases in-house.”
