29th ITI Education Week Bern

This one-week course was established 18 years ago and has become the most successful ITI Education Week offered by the ITI. It was designed for clinicians with an interest in the field of implant dentistry. This basic course presents evidencebased treatment concepts for the rehabilitation of fully and partially edentulous patients with implant supported prostheses. Besides more than 25 lectures, the participants can watch several live surgeries observing how dental implants are applied. The course also offers the opportunity to participate in treatment planning as well as surgical and prosthetic hands-on workshops.
