International Mentorship in Implant Dentistry
A one-on-one surgical immersion in Londrina, Brazil, with a mentor who worked directly with the inventor of the dental implant.
Learn from someone who worked with Brånemark
Dr. Marcos Rikio Kuabara welcomes international dentists to an individual or two-person mentorship designed for professionals who want to advance their skills in implant dentistry and surgical oral rehabilitation.
With 38 years of clinical experience, a Master's degree from UNESP, a PhD from Universidade Positivo and a tenure as director of the Brånemark Institute in Brazil, Dr. Kuabara carries a lineage of knowledge that very few professionals in the world can offer — he worked directly with Per-Ingvar Brånemark, the father of modern osseointegration.
The program has already welcomed its first international mentee, from France, and is open to dentists of any nationality committed to clinical excellence.
