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.

We are very excited to ring in the new year with a brand new Residency Program for Dental Implant Training.  This is especially exciting news to those who are just looking into integrating Dental Implants into their current practice.  So, without further Ado, let’s dive into the details.

The new residency program is focused on 3 primary goals:

  1. Ensuring Doctors finish the program and have the experience and confidence to immediately begin placing implants in their practice
  2. Doctors place an implant with a real patient in the Course  -  overcome the hurdle of “The First One”
  3. More hands-on and educational value than any other training program

We are excited to announce that we have put together the 2010 program with these accomplishments in mind – and the results so far are great.  The Base Residency Program includes the Following courses:

Implant 1 – 2 Days
Prosthtics 1 – 1/2 Day
Prosthetics 2 – 1/2 Day
Implant 2 – 2 Days
Surgery Day – 1 Day – Place Implant in Patient

The Residency Program can be taken either as 2 Half Weeks or A Full Bootcamp Week.  The most common layout for the Residency Program is as follows:

Implant Residency Block1

Implant Residency Block1

Residency-Program-Block2

Residency-Program-Block2

Again, the 2 Blocks don’t need to be taken in the same week.  Many doctors choose to take the first block one month, then the second block the following month.

The huge advantage to the Residency Program is the completeness of the training as well as the ability to get in and place an implant by the end of the program.  It is also hugely beneficial to place an implant while having Dr. PK Clark’s 20 years of Placing and teaching Implants standing right next to you!

The WhiteCap Residency Program is focused on you becoming a successful and confident Implantologist.  Let us know if you have any questions, or please feel free to Contact Us or Register for the Implant Residency.
