New Frontiers - Cooperation between DGZI (German Association of Dental

Implantology) and Danube University (Donau Universität)

As the oldest professional nonprofit association active in the field of implantology, DGZI is

focusing its activities on the continuing education and training of dentists active in the field

of implantology. The goal of these activities is to improve both quality and quality assurance

as well as the safety of therapies in the interest of patients on the one hand, and providing

factual information on existing therapeutic possibilities of implant-based tooth replacement

on the other hand. Cooperation with universities and professional associations at home and

abroad serve to support these objectives.

From “DGZI- Curriculum” to academic

“Master of Science in Oral Surgery / Implantology (MSc)” within four semesters.

No other institution in Germany has a comparable amount of experience and success with

respect to postgraduate education at university level involving the “Master of Science”

degree in various areas of specialization of dentistry like Danube University Krems. It has

pushed through the acceptance of the “Master of Science” degree in various disciplines of

dentistry as an academic, university-level protection and confirmation for these specialists in

Germany, despite fierce opposition of the chambers of dentistry, professional organizations

and even professional associations.

DGZI curriculum graduates can now enroll in the “Master of Science in Oral Surgery /

Implantology (MSc)” degree course offered in its 6th edition since 2001 at the Danube

University at special conditions and in English language. This is based on a cooperation

agreement concluded between DGZI and PUSH / Danube University Krems as a prerequisite

for the “Master of Science in Oral Surgery / Implantology (MSc)” course of study.

Better quality of life with dental implants

Dental implantology is a discipline in dentistry which has experienced the most significant and dramatic developments in the past 20 years. An important task laid down in the statutes of the DGZI, Europe’s oldest scientific society for dental implantology, is to provide the patient with objective and independent information about implant dentistry. As the oldest scientific implant expert association in Europe (founded in 1970), the GERMAN ASSOCIATION OF DENTAL IMPLANTOLOGY (DGZI) has not only attended the developments of oral implantology but also established and created significant benchmarks. Some examples are the annual international conventions, continuing education courses in implant surgery, curriculum development programs, internships, supervisions, Oral Implantology Specialist examinations, promotion and support of national and international research projects by the scientific DGZI advisory board as well as the presentation of the DGZI Implant Dentistry Award.As early as at the beginning of the 1990s, DGZI began to administer an examination for particularly qualified colleagues to prove their knowledge and skills. Some 400 Specialists in implantology throughout Germany and abroad belong to the DGZI. They have many years of experience in implantology, have placed a large number of implants and, after undergoing comprehensive further education, they have passed the quality examination “Oral Implantology Specialist – DGZI”DGZI members receive the certificate "Oral Implantology Specialist - DGZI" upon successful completion of the examination. A successful examination entitles the examinee to bear the qualified designation "Oral Implantology Specialist - DGZI” and fulfillment of certain conditions.The detailed Guidelines for the grant “Oral Implantology Specialist – DGZI” is available on request.A special guide book serves to supplement the curricular contents for postgraduate education and the preparation for the "Oral Implantology Specialist - DGZI" examination as well as master studies. The main focus is on practical applicability and usability, particularly for younger colleagues who have just started their career as implantologist. Consequently, this book contains a collection of the most important questions and answers regarding implantology which are as indispensable to the beginner as to the expert.

Postgraduate education – Curriculum DGZI (two Semesters)

A program offered through cooperation with universities and certified

implantologists in private practice.

Seminar Series with German Board Qualification

ONE YEAR PROGRAM

Preliminary Remarks

The Curriculum Implantology has been developed in a cooperation of the bodies and

expert speakers of DGZI and the participating universities. As a post graduate

education course in implantology, the Curriculum Implantology is being offered as a

basic training program through cooperation with universities as well as experienced

practitioners. Cooperative concepts were harmonized in a German Consensus

Conference of Oral Implantology (between DGZI, DGI, DGMKG, BDO, BDIZ) and

incorporated into this series of implantology seminars. The curriculum offered by

DGZI consists of 8 weekend sessions plus internship and supervision distributed

over one year. The curriculum is aimed at dentists seeking sound continued dental

education with great relevance to their daily work. The program focuses not only on

theoretical aspects, but also places a major emphasis on implantology techniques

that are relevant for the daily practice. A special focus was placed on paving the

participants’ way to the practical application of the technique by means of exercises

and live demonstrations. Participants will be given opportunity to practice their

skills on specimens. As a special bonus exercises on superstructures as well as the

recent subspecialties of augmentation, red and white implant aesthetics have also

been integrated into the program.

There is final examination at the conclusion of the curriculum. Participants who

successfully complete the 8 weekend sessions, examinations and obtain a minimum

of 20 additional points through internships / supervision may submit their

documentation to the organization committee of DGZI. The qualification certificate

(German board examination) will then be handled out.

Pursuant to the agreements of the German Consensus Conference of Oral

Page 12: membership_benefits.doc

Implantology of the implantology societies, the qualification is recognized and

confirmed.

Description of Each Curriculum Weekend (over two semesters)

1. Introduction into dental implantology

2. Basics of Implantology and Surgery

3. Theory and Practice of Implantology in Specimens

4. Implant Placement and Surgical Procedures in the Daily Practice

5. Soft Tissue and Bone Management

6. Special Aspects of Prosthetics in Implantology

7. Emergencies, Anesthesia, and Pharmacology 8. Innovative Procedures and Techniques in Implantology

Internships and Supervision

Two internships as part of the curriculum provide the participants with an

opportunity to observe the activities of an experienced implantologist on a one-to-

one basis and from close-by.

The presence of the participant should not significantly interfere with the normal

routine in the dentist’s practice. Breaks between treatments will provide ample time

for discussions and there may even be an opportunity for the participant to assist

the tutoring implantologist.

Similar to university education, one supervision is a part of DGZI’s postgraduate

education in implantology provides the participants with an opportunity to gain

practical experience with real patients. The participant and the tutoring

implantologist will discuss the design of the preparatory steps and surgery several

weeks ahead of time. Following this, the participant performs an implant surgery on

one of his or her own patients at the premises of and assisted by the tutoring

New Perspectives -

Master of Science in Oral Surgery Implantology

(MSc)

Danube University Krems German Association of Dental

Implantology

The master’s program “Implantology” is geared towards practicing dentists and

offers practice-based university-level continuing education of international quality.

It is designed as in-service training and is offered in German language and now also

in English language in cooperation with German DGZI (German Association of Dental

Implantology).

For the Danube University Krems, 2005 has been a year filled with milestones. On

Page 16: membership_benefits.doc

February 1, 2005, the new executive board began its work, setting the course for

the development of Danube University Krems into a European competence center

for continuing education. We will continue to optimize the university’s potential by

developing our research capacities, utilizing internal synergies, and reinforcing

international networks.

In the implementation of the ambitious program the executive board is supported by

the highly motivated staff of the university, to be expanded by the addition of new

professors in the fall. The interest the enterprise Danube University Krems is

generating is illustrated, among others, by the number of applications: 270 highly

qualified scientists from all over the world have applied for the 13 advertised

professorships.

Upon the completion of Krems Campus in October 2006, studying and working at

Danube University Krems will take place within even more attractive surroundings.

New classrooms, seminar rooms, a research center, a library and a lecture hall,

apartments for students and instructors, as well as a repertory cinema have been

built according to plans by Dietmar Feichtinger, an architect living in Paris. The new

university campus offers more than 4,000 students and 450 staff members a place

to teach, study, research, and work.

Last but not least, Danube University is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year.

Danube University Krems opened its doors in 1995 with 93 students and three

courses of study; today, this university for continuing education offers more than

100 courses of study, which are attended by more than 4,000 students. It is a

phenomenal development and a success eager to continue. Join in this undertaking

and open up new prospects for your career!

Within the field of dentistry, implantology has increasingly emerged as an area of

specialization in its own right. The goal of the post-graduate university training

course “Implantology” for dentists is to provide students with in-depth, application-

oriented scientific knowledge and practical skills in the area of implantology. The

focus is on indication, planning, symptoms and surgery, as well as post-operative

care, liaison with associated prosthetics and general diseases as well as other

individual disciplines in dental and oral diseases and maxillofacial surgery. The

course of study particularly focuses on the connection between theory and practice

Page 17: membership_benefits.doc

in the area of invasive surgical procedures. Students will be able to offer state-of the

art implantology, consistent with forensic ethical standards, as a special emphasis of

their practice and as a specialization.

Currently, more than 300 masters have earned their degree in one of the specialist

areas; more than 700 dentists are currently actively enrolled in studies in Germany.

Pursuant to the European standards of the “Bologna Conference” of the Ministers of

Science, the “Master of Science in Oral Surgery / Implantology (MSc)” degree

requires a total of at least 50 semester hours including corresponding partial

examinations, case documentations, practical training and a master thesis as well as

a final examination with a total of 180 ECTS points (European Credit Transfer

System for the assessment of various studies).

The “Master of Science in Oral Surgery / Implantology (MSc)” at Danube University,

the state university for postgraduate studies, is based on these comprehensive

conditions. According to the examination regulations, both interim examinations

pertaining to all topics as well as a final examination before the board of examiners

need to be taken. The course of studies has been approved pursuant to the 404th

ordinance issued by the Federal Ministry for Education, Science and Culture (Federal

Law Gazette 2004) and is recognized in Germany, Europe as well as internationally.

Special courses of study are now being offered for DGZI curriculum graduates within

the scope of the cooperation between DGZI and PUSH / Danube University Krems.

The reduced tuition fee for the “MSc in Implantology” course of studies within the

scope of cooperation between DGZI / PUSH / Danube University represents a

significant reduction of almost one third of the total costs, based on the recognition

of the continuing education provided by the DGZI curriculum which equals and is

recognized as two semesters of studies. The duration of the studies for the Master

degree will consist of additional four semesters / 32 semester hours / 32 seminar

study days plus interactive studies (at least 24 months duration of studies) for DGZI

curriculum graduates.

All conditions outlined in the official examination regulations of the national Danube

University regarding the “MSc in Implantology” must be fulfilled. This means that

written examination, case documentation including corresponding specification of

indication and documentation regulations (master thesis / defense and expert

discussion) must be completed. A professor will serve as mentor for writing the

Page 18: membership_benefits.doc

master thesis.

DGZI is currently the scientific implantological expert association in Germany and

probably in Europe, the educational components of which are being recognized by a

national European university.
