Want to get stuck into implants but not sure where to start?
It’s an enticing area of dentistry to want to sink your teeth into, but it can also be intimidating when you haven’t had much exposure. So how do you actually get started? More importantly, how do you get started safely when the risks and stakes are far higher than a simple filling? How do you find mentorship, how should you approach it, and what skills should you build beforehand to set yourself up for success?

In this episode, we dive into Dr David Attia’s journey into implantology - from his very first case with chairside guidance from his boss, to the extra education he pursued internationally, to travelling across 14 different practices, and now teaching and mentoring others in the field.

This was live podcast from our Sydney Meet Up and it was so awesome having our audience jump in with their questions and be part of the conversation!
