“…S ince the early 1990s, there have been reports on the need for incorporating implantology into dental education and educational methods for doing so. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] According to these reports, implantology has been incorporated into dental education in many countries, but the approaches have varied and have not been standardized. Reports over the past decade have shown that many dental schools have incorporated implantology into their curricula; however, there is wide variation in their use of lectures and hands-on experience using models as well as the extent of practical clinical experience.…”

Implant treatment today is highly predictable and provides valid restorative options for the completely or partially edentulous patient. In Japan, many dental care facilities have incorporated implant treatment, and such treatment is no longer rare. For predoctoral students, the educational environment related to implants is not always applicable in present clinical settings. In this article, we describe the implant training program developed at our university for predoctoral education, and we report the changes in student opinions regarding implant treatment by comparing pre-and post-training opinions. The newly developed models for implant training were effective in increasing student understanding that implant treatment is one prosthetic option for restoring missing teeth. In a survey of predoctoral students, responses indicating negative opinions toward implant treatment decreased after training, and responses indicating positive opinions increased.

“…Already in the early nineties when basic research in osseointegration and clinical application of implants grew rapidly, clinicians and university educators discussed the teaching of implantology for undergraduate students and for postgraduate trainings 1 . At this time the lack of trained and qualified teachers appeared to be a limitation when implantology should be introduced in university curricula 2 . However, gradually implant restorations were included into general and specialist dental practice 3 .…”

Aims: To analyze frequency distribution of prosthetic reconstructions and therapeutic modalities with implant-supported reconstructions (ISRs) applied in a university graduate program. Methodology: Data of implant placement and related ISR were obtained from treatment plans, surgical protocols and patients' charts, covering the 2005 to 2010 time period. Loading time, implant survival and type of ISR, i.e. fixed (single crown (SC), short-span fixed dental prosthesis (FDP), full-arch FDP (IB)) and removable ISR (denture with ball attachments (RDP), bar-supported overdenture (Bar-IOD)) were determined and analyzed with descriptive statistical methods. Results: Data of 819 patients with a mean age of 62.3 ± 11.6 years were available. Graduate students placed 2337 implants and 1133 related ISRs were fabricated. The observation time ranged from 1 to 8 years (mean 4.7 ± 1.8). The number of implants supporting fixed and removable ISRs was 1053 (45.1%) and 1284 (54.9%), respectively. The percentage distribution of implants per ISRs exhibited 337/337 SCs (14.4%), 422/190 FDPs (18.1%), 294/54 IBs (12.6%), 374/198 RDPs (16.0%) and 910/354 Bar-IODs (38.9%). Thirty-one implants were lost (12 before and 19 after loading) resulting in an 8-year cumulative survival rate of 98.6% without difference between implants of different groups (fixed vs. removable ISRs, splinted vs. non-splinted ISRs, no GBR/SFE vs. GBR/SFE, upper vs. lower jaw). Conclusions: A broad variety of fixed and removable implant supported prostheses for partially and completely edentulous patients was identified. Although these data represent learning curves for graduate students working under supervision, implant survival was successful in a short-term range.
