Our didactic modules for this course are mandatory and will be available online from August 2025 and will need to be completed in 1 month time prior to attending our Full Arch One on One Hybrid Clinical Session course in India. Please contact us first to express interest as course registration is subject to a telephonic interview and eligibility for temporary local council registration. Please do not register until confirmation of acceptance is received. Our Clinical Session is scheduled for September 2025 and exact dates will be announced shortly.

The clinical facility is located in India and details are available on the Course Facility page (https://theaceinstitute.net/course-facility) The clinical facility is a fully functional dental institution with state of the art technology and a fully equipped dental laboratory. The Institution is located on Poonamallee High Road, an arterial road in Chennai and multiple hotels are situated in close proximity to the clinical facility. If a fee package that includes accomodation is selected, transport will be provided to/from the local hotel and the Course Facility.

A copy of your passport, a passport size photograph, a copy of your dental qualification, a copy of your current dental registration and a current CV will all be requested during Checkout as part of the registration process for this course. Please have these documents ready in PDF format before you progress a course registration.

Despite this course being taught online, a table based series of hands on exercises/demonstrations is part of the course during a didactic session that is part of our Clinical Session at our extramural location. The primary purpose of these sessions is to ensure pre clinical competence.

Hands on sessions will involve treatment planning with custom printed bone models of all 3 arches that will be treated by the participant during the clinical sessions. These custom printed bone models will be based on CBCT bone segmentations of the actual patients that will be treated by the participant. Simulation sessions using these models will enable the participant to practice the placement and sequencing of stackable guides for applicable cases.

Course fees for this option is $24950 NZD plus GST (GST is charged only if applicable and is usually charged only to New Zealand participants) and is payable as a non refundable registration deposit of $4950 NZD plus GST to confirm a place on the clinical session and thereafter in two equal parts of $10000 NZD plus GST- one part after temporary local council registration is confirmed and the other on invoice just before the onsite session. The Course fees includes access to all Full Arch One on One Hybrid online course materials, teaching models, dummy implants, general dental consumables, dental implants, componentry, laboratory charges, radiological investigations, stents, local council registration fees, clinical sessions and 1 on 1 faculty supervision.

Course fees do not include airfares, visa charges, accommodation and breakfast/dinner on course days.

Clinical Session to place implants for Full Arch cases:

Clinical Session Option (Extramural Location in Chennai, India) : Please contact the Course Coordinator if you wish to consider this option.

Available to all New Zealand/Australia/USA participants 

This clinical session option allows a participant to treat 3 full arch surgical cases using advanced guided surgery . A participant will also restore a full arch case with integrated implants using analog/digital protocols. The entire session will be conducted at our extramural hybrid course facility that can be viewed here.

The sessions will extend across 1 week with 3 didactic days (Sunday-Tuesday) followed by 4 clinical days (Wednesday – Saturday) that will also involve time for surgical planning, guide fabrication and prosthodontic design. A surgical debrief session will be conducted at the end of every surgical clinical day. The fees also includes access to the university library and the ability to observe other clinical cases in the Department of Implantology.

This clinical session option involves:

• Didactic lectures on full arch All on X implant surgery and prosthodontics for 3 days at our extramural location.
• Hands on sessions will involve treatment planning with custom printed bone models of all 3 arches that will be treated by the participant during the clinical sessions. These custom printed bone models will be based on CBCT bone segmentations of the actual patients that will be treated by the participant. Simulation sessions using these models will enable the participant to practice the placement and sequencing of stackable guides for applicable cases.
• Clinical sessions will involve the treatment of three arches with three different provisionalisation protocols on three different clinical days. Provisionalisation protocols will include one case with a printed hybrid ceramic pick up provisional, one case with a milled PMMA pick up provisional and one case with denture conversion.
• With each of the three clinical cases, participants will also be exposed to a variety of techniques for post operative records. These will include full arch intraoral scanning with scan aids, photogrammetry and conventional analog impressions.
• A final fourth clinical day will be dedicated to the definitive restoration of an All on X full arch case with integrated implants. Either a milled metal substructure with zirconia prosthesis or a monolithic zirconia prosthesis will be used. Participants will also be exposed to the lab protocols used for staining and glazing of these definitive prostheses.
• The spectrum of hands on and clinical sessions will give every participant the most comprehensive clinical exposure they can receive in a full arch course. It is expected that participants will walk away from the course with the confidence to design their own clinical protocols and execute them with consistency and predictability.

All patients will have to be treated in accordance with course protocols that require stringent diagnosis and treatment planning. All patients must also provide course prescribed full informed consent for their participation on the course.

All participants must be registered with the Dental Board of Australia or the Dental Council of New Zealand or a US State Dental Board or a State Dental Council in India, as applicable. For this clinical session option alone, the extramural hybrid course facility will organize local temporary dental registration with the local Dental Council, as necessary.

It is highly recommended that you have good surgical skills in place with advanced experience in the placement of dental implants. The Course Coordinator may request evidence of such proficiency. Participation in the ACE Institute’s Tissue Grafting in Implantology Course is highly recommend.
