Implant nursing

How'd you get on with this Shazza?

You could ask your dentist if there is an equivalent implant course to compliment the one he/she is doing so that you will be up to speed when treatments commence

Once the GDP has decided which implant sytem/brand he is going to use for placements, contact the company themself. Any decent company runs training for their own sytems. This way you get general implant training and training specific to maintaing their surgical/prosthetic kits. Invaluable.

I second this - this is definately your best bet to start out then go on to the more complicated and in depth courses! Implants are LOADS of fun - I loved it. Good luck! x
