This module will involve the student attending clinical practice attachments for no less than 20 sessions. These will be at the Bristol Royal Infirmary, Bristol Dental Hospital and approved mentoring private practice(s). The student will observe and, after a suitable period of time as deemed by the mentor/tutor become involved in the assessing, treatment planning and preparation of patients for implant surgery. The student should observe implant surgery and the stages involved in the construction and placement of provisional and definitive prostheses. In due course it is expected that each student will prepare and treatment plan no less than 2 patients for implant treatment. At least one of these cases should be a single tooth replacement case. The student will be expected to carry out the implant placement and where possible final restoration for at least one patient under the supervision of their mentor.
