From prosthodontic planning to implant-supported rehabilitation

The Master in Advanced Implant Prosthodontic Treatments is a one-year, 60 ECTS university program designed for dentists who want to expand their prosthodontic knowledge into the field of implant dentistry, digital workflows and complex implant-supported rehabilitation.

The program is particularly suited to clinicians who have already completed advanced training in prosthodontics at the University of Siena under the guidance of Prof Ferrari – including graduates of a two-year Prosthodontics Master – and want to complete their learning pathway by integrating implant surgery, prosthetically driven implant placement and implant-supported prosthetic treatments into their clinical practice.

Rather than considering implant placement as an isolated surgical procedure, the Master approaches implant dentistry from a restorative and prosthodontic perspective: diagnosis, treatment planning and the desired final restoration guide the entire clinical workflow.

A comprehensive approach to implant prosthodontics

The program follows the complete decision-making process behind implant-supported treatments, starting from the biological and anatomical foundations of implant dentistry and progressing towards increasingly complex clinical situations.

Students will explore the anatomy of the jaws, bone biology and the physiology of osseointegration, providing the scientific basis necessary to understand implant treatment and its biological limitations.

The surgical component introduces the fundamental principles of implant placement, including surgical procedures, implant positioning and the different timing protocols for implant placement.

Particular emphasis is placed on Prosthodontically Guided Implantology: implants should be planned and positioned according to the final prosthetic outcome rather than considering surgery and restoration as separate phases of treatment.

Diagnosis, digital planning and clinical decision-making

A central part of the Master is dedicated to diagnosis and treatment planning.

Students will learn how to evaluate implant cases from both a biological and prosthetic perspective and how to translate the treatment plan into a predictable clinical workflow.

Digital technologies will be integrated throughout the program, including the use of SmileCloud and dedicated implant-planning software to support diagnosis, communication, prosthetic design and implant positioning.

Both digital and conventional workflows will be discussed, allowing participants to understand their respective indications, advantages and limitations rather than relying on a single clinical approach.

The program will progressively move from straightforward cases to complex rehabilitations, including:

• single implant-supported crowns;
• partially edentulous cases;
• multiple implant-supported restorations;
• complex treatment planning;
• full-arch implant-supported rehabilitations;
• prosthetically guided implant placement;
• digital implant planning and guided workflows;
• navigated implantology.

From planning to hands-on practice

The practical component of the Master is designed to transform treatment-planning concepts into clinical skills.

Participants will work on phantom models to perform implant placement exercises, developing familiarity with implant positioning and surgical sequences in a controlled environment.

A significant part of the hands-on training will also focus on diagnosis and treatment planning using dedicated software for Prosthodontically Guided Implantology.

Students will work through cases of increasing complexity, learning how to combine anatomical information, digital data and prosthetic objectives to determine the optimal implant position and rehabilitation strategy.

The goal is not simply to learn how to place an implant, but to understand where, when and why an implant should be placed according to the final prosthetic treatment.

An advanced step after prosthodontic training

Implant dentistry is increasingly inseparable from prosthodontics, digital dentistry and interdisciplinary treatment planning.

For clinicians who already have a solid prosthodontic background, this Master represents a natural next step: from restoring teeth to planning and managing implant-supported rehabilitations.

At the end of the program, participants will have developed a structured approach to implant cases – from biological and anatomical assessment to digital planning, implant positioning and the design of the final prosthetic rehabilitation.

The Master Program in Dental Traumatology is a comprehensive, postgraduate-level educational program designed to provide dentists and dental specialists with advanced theoretical knowledge and clinical decision-making skills in the prevention, diagnosis, and management of traumatic dental injuries (TDI). Structured over 2 academic years and delivered through online synchronous sessions and on-site hands on workshops examination process and thesis presentation, the program integrates biological principles, evidence-based clinical protocols, and multidisciplinary treatment planning in accordance with current international guidelines.

The curriculum follows a logical progression from foundational concepts and biological responses to trauma, through the diagnosis and management of hard dental and soft tissue injuries, pulpal and periodontal complications, aesthetic rehabilitation, pediatric trauma, orthodontic considerations, long-term restorative and implant-based solutions and a special focus on Autotransplantation. Emphasis is placed on critical appraisal of contemporary literature, guideline-driven care (IADT), and case-based learning to strengthen clinical reasoning and prognostic assessment.

A distinctive feature of the program is its strong interdisciplinary orientation, incorporating endodontics, periodontology, pediatric dentistry, orthodontics, oral and maxillofacial surgery, restorative dentistry, and public health perspectives. Ethical, medico-legal, and psychosocial dimensions of dental trauma are interwoven throughout the curriculum to ensure holistic and patient-centered care.

Upon successful completion of the program participants will be able to independently assess and manage traumatic dental injuries across different age groups, formulate comprehensive treatment plans, prevent and manage complications, and communicate effectively with patients, families, and interdisciplinary teams. The program is designed for clinicians seeking advanced expertise in Dental Traumatology, as well as for those aiming to develop a focused clinical or academic interest in this evolving field.

General info on the master in Advanced Endodontics

This postgraduate program is designed for dentists who aim to elevate their clinical practice through advanced education in Endodontics and Restorative Dentistry. Managing complex endodontic treatments and retreatments requires more than theoretical knowledge—it demands refined clinical judgment, technical precision, and a comprehensive understanding of modern treatment protocols. This program is built to provide exactly that balance.

One of the program’s defining features is its integrated “root-to-crown” approach. Contemporary endodontic success cannot be separated from the quality of the final restoration. For this reason, the course emphasizes the complete restorative workflow, enabling clinicians to diagnose, plan, and execute treatments with a predictable and patient-centered perspective.

Over the course of two years, participants will engage in a structured educational pathway that combines evidence-based theoretical learning with intensive practical training. Online lectures provide a strong scientific and clinical foundation, allowing participants to deepen their understanding of both Endodontics and Restorative Dentistry from anywhere in the world.

The hands-on modules, held in Siena, focus on practical skill development through simulations, clinical exercises, and real-life treatment scenarios designed to enhance confidence and precision in everyday practice.

Created specifically for working professionals, the hybrid structure of the program allows participants to continue their clinical activity while pursuing an internationally recognized postgraduate qualification from the University of Siena. Through a flexible and digitally supported learning environment, clinicians can expand their expertise, advance their careers, and remain fully active in their professional practice throughout the duration of the course.
