FROM NEEDLE IMPLANTS TO A SUPERVISION PRACTICE<br />
HOW DID YOU GET INTO IMPLANTOLOGY?<br />
DR. GAISER I started 30 years ago with needle implants, subperiosteal implants<br />
and Linkow blades. I received my training in oral surgery with Horst Sauer, an<br />
orthodontic surgeon in Constance, Germany. After establ<strong>is</strong>hing my own practice we<br />
started with bone grafting for preparation of the implant site in the early 1980s.<br />
Since the mid-1980s I have been working internationally as a lecturer in implantology,<br />
I conduct surgery courses and surgical partnerships. We have been accredited as<br />
a training and superv<strong>is</strong>ion practice by the German Society for Implantology (DGI)<br />
since 2005.<br />
WHAT GOALS DO YOU HAVE FOR YOUR STUDY GROUP?<br />
DR. GAISER We want to develop a more interd<strong>is</strong>ciplinary focus and continue bringing<br />
experts in dental medicine to Constance. For example, th<strong>is</strong> year Hans-Jürgen Hartmann,<br />
Philippe Ledermann and Dieter Reusch are on the l<strong>is</strong>t of lecturers. We make<br />
sure that our continuing education programs are always contemporary through our<br />
contacts with German and international profession associations and with leading<br />
implant manufacturers such as Dentsply <strong>Friadent</strong>. Our study group <strong>is</strong> open to all<br />
who want to grow with implantology. ■<br />
