Our residents experience all classic periodontal procedures with approximately 50% of the program dedicated to implant related surgical procedures. Our residents have the ability to work with 8 different implant systems, various virtual implant planning softwares, guided implant surgical cases, and a variety of guided bone regeneration techniques. Residents will also have opportunity to work with videoscope, lasers and PRF centrifuges. Teaching and research are important components of our program as well. All residents will perform and publish a Masters of Science in Dentistry thesis project in areas including clinical research, microbiology, immunology, dental informatics. As part of teaching requirements, residents are also expected to teach in the undergraduate clinics one half day each week and participate in various preclinical laboratories conducted for the undergraduate dental students.
