The College has announced a two-part exploration of dental implants by its Midlands Study Club over the coming weeks.
Dr Minas Leventis DipDS MSc PhD will be leading the CGDent Midlands implant series
Part one, on the evening of Monday 9 March 2026, will be devoted to implant restoration. Attendees will be able to:
- gain hands-on implant restoration practice
- gain insights from experienced specialists across multiple disciplines
- explore evidence-based restorative protocols
Part two, on Monday 20 April 2026, will focus on after-care of dental implants. Attendees will have the opportunity to:
- review evidence-based implant maintenance protocols
- discuss management of peri-implant health and disease
- get practical guidance on hygiene instrumentation and recall intervals
- take part in case-based discussions and shared learning
Both events take place from 6-8pm at Rock Dental, a specialist referral practice in Wolverhampton, and attendees will be able to bring along their own cases for peer discussion and advice from its multi-disciplinary team in a relaxed and supportive environment.
