A recipient of the Brandon Hall Group Excellence in Learning Gold Award for Best Use of a Blended Learning Program, Aspen Dental's dental implantology curriculum is one of the most effective, engaging training programs in the country. Aspen Dental's comprehensive approach trains doctors on every aspect of the implant process, from diagnosis to delivery of care, for both restorative and surgical implantology.
The growing need for implant treatments and robust dental education is supported by research that shows more than 150 million people in the U.S. are missing at least one tooth (partial edentulism) and over one million of these cases go untreated annually. Additionally, more than 37 million Americans suffer complete edentulism, a condition linked to serious health, social and psychological issues.
"Over the past several years, we've continued to see implantology arise as one of the most effective treatment tactics for oral health needs," said Sundeep Rawal, DMD, senior vice president of implant support services for Aspen Dental. "At the same time, dental implantology is one of the most under-educated clinical specialty areas in dental school curriculum. To empower doctors to confidently provide the best level of care possible and meet the demand for implant therapies, we're eager to continuing growing our investment and leadership in implantology training."
Training a record-breaking number of dentists in implantology is just one way Aspen Dental demonstrates a commitment to professional development for all Aspen Dental team members. As Aspen Dental offices transition towards all-digital workstreams, care teams have increased opportunity to develop new areas of expertise and professional advancement within the organization – all while curating a more accessible patient experience.
