Teaching
MSc in Dental Implantology
This is a taught clinical MSc programme. I have direct involvement in the following modules:
- Clinical implantology module
- Professional project module
This involves didactice teaching in small group seminars and clinical supervision in both the surgical and restorative aspects of dental implant treatment. I have supervised / co-supervised 42 Implantology MSc theses to completion with a further ongoing 9 MSc students.
