Course Description

This 32 CE hour course is designed to get you proficient in using implant-retained bridges to restore a full arch of dentition using the 3 on 6™ treatment concept. This is an in-person course but also includes online accessible portions that can be accessed in preparation for the training course. The course includes lectures, group discussions, treatment planning, hands-on activities, hands-on surgeries, and a recreational event.

​

Doctors are also invited to bring their lead assistant to be trained so that they can do all of the tasks they are capable of doing so you can maximize your time treating patients.

​

The course cost is $20,000. There is an additional cost of $5,000 to become a licensed 3 on 6™ provider after successful completion of the course and certification of competency. There are no refunds. If you have a scheduling conflict we can reschedule you for a future training.

  3. Implant placement (ideally some guided and many freehand)
