A South Korean firm, Osstem Implant in collaboration with KOTRA, MCM Comprehensive Specialized Hospital and Dentos has started a donation of a free Intensive Implant Course for the Ethiopian dentists which lasted on Friday September 09. The main purpose of this donation was to provide the necessary knowledge and clinical skills to incorporate implant dentistry in the country.
According to Dr. Youngdai Song, (lecturer) who has worked in this field for many years, this training will be a good opportunity for many doctors. He added that this training will focus not only on education but also on technology transfer.
This training is been given to dentists from various government hospitals and private clinics and is being given using the basis of various methods to demonstrate the progress in dental implants. This 4 consecutive days of free training will help the participants gain knowledge and apply what they have learned in their daily work. This is an excellent opportunity for general dentists and dentists who wish to improve their current dental skills to pursue oral implant therapy.
