DUBLIN, Ireland: The ninth intake, consisting of 30 students from 14 countries, for the Master of Science in Oral Implantology (MOI) recently began their classes at Goethe University Frankfurt in Germany. The part-time master’s programme, which has a stand at this year’s EAO Annual Scientific Congress in Dublin, was established four years ago to offer practising dentists advanced academic training in the field of oral implantology, including lectures, hands-on practice, research work and treatment of real patients.

According to the university, it provides participants with comprehensive and highly specialised theoretical knowledge, as well as excellent practical skills. A major training objective is the independent planning, analysis, and implementation of therapy involving initial complex clinical situations. Interdisciplinary approaches and the co-ordination of the various persons involved in dental therapy are also reflected and discussed. Students are encouraged to document, share and discuss their own experiences with their fellow students. A multidisciplinary and international team of experts is available to mentor the students at all times, the organiser said.

Goethe University Frankfurt’s MOI programme is independent and not affiliated with any non-university or corporate institution. Currently, the students enrolled come from over 40 countries and are dentists who have already placed implants and wish to improve their skills in order to provide safe and efficient treatment to their patients.

In order to be considered for the MOI programme, applicants must be licensed to practise dentistry and hold an academic qualification entitling them to work as a dentist in their own country. In addition, a minimum of two years of relevant professional work experience and proficiency in English, demonstrated by an adequate TOEFL score for example, are required.

The next course starts in April 2014, with the first session scheduled for 4–13 April in Frankfurt/Main. The university is currently accepting applications and the deadline is 15 December 2013.
