In
collaboration with Tamimi Academy & GDIC
Implantology has emerged as a pivotal discipline within dentistry over the past three decades, transforming patient care through enhanced denture comfort, aesthetic improvements, and the restoration of oral functionality following accidents or health conditions. This curriculum, developed by the International Medical College (IMC) of the University Duisburg-Essen and in collaboration with Tamimi Academy & GDIC, is designed to provide comprehensive training in implantology from diagnostics and planning through to surgical and prosthetic rehabilitation.
To equip participants with foundational and advanced knowledge in implantology, enabling them to perform with excellence in various clinical settings. Successful completion of the curriculum may contribute credits towards the M.Sc. in Implantology and Dental Surgery issued by the International Medical College of the University of Duisburg-Essen.
