How did WhiteCap Institute get started with Dental Implant Training?

Dr. P.K. Clark:
For many years I simply did implants in my own office and the experience was outstanding. I was so gratified by helping patients with dental implants that could not be helped in any other treatment modality. As I continued to place implants it became apparent to some of my friends, that were also dentists, that I was doing things that they were not. Their curiosity brought them to my office on numerous occasions and I had the overwhelming request to start teaching them how to place dental implants.

So one doctor at a time, I would meet with them in their own offices and I would help them place their first implants. Over time they became very appreciative and energetic about expanding their skills to be able to help their patients. It became very apparent that a general dentist that has had significant experience in the dental implant field–particularly in surgery and restoring implants–had an opportunity to teach other colleagues. So about 6 years ago I decided to start WhiteCap Institute and we haven’t looked back since. Over the past 6 years we have had the privilege of teaching, training and mentoring over 1500 dentist from 40 different states. The mission of WhiteCap Institute is to educate dentists on providing the highest standard of patient-centered care. We inspire, motivate and train General Dentists to confidently and predictably restore their patients with dental implant solutions. Through our focused and concise live surgery and hands-on training, we simply provide the best dental implant training available.
