In recent years, more and more dentists are seeking to deal with Growth Factors and Stem Cells applications in everyday dental practice. These are applications that until now are not included in the curriculum in any undergraduate courses available and a plethora of dentists are very keen on learning about them.
The market demand in this sector is constantly growing as is the use of autologous products and other allograft materials and techniques for this purpose. This Diploma program, in addition to the theoretical online training from experienced tutors, offers one or two weeks of clinical training in this field and covers thoroughly the overall use and application of these procedures.
Dentists actively participate in a wide range of in-person real treatments of cases in the clinic, giving them the opportunity to understand better the use of growth factors and stem cells in the following areas:
Oral Surgery
Implantology
Periodontics
Endodontics
GBR (Guided Bone Regeneration),
GTR (Guided Tissue Regeneration)
Aesthetics of facial and perioral area.
Gaining an in-depth knowledge of contemporaneous and innovative techniques, devices and
materials.
The program seeks doctors who will ultimately graduate at an excellent level of knowledge in this field and will possess a thorough knowledge of how to make use of all the appropriate advanced technology.

Theoretical online education
The postgraduate students are taught by attending lectures given by many international tutors online. In-person clinical education Students learn in practice by participating in live minimal invasive surgical cases. They will be taking part in a wide range of applications of growth factors and stem cells in the fields of dentistry. This is the part that makes the doctor a leader in their field and equips them with the skills to handle different kinds of cases by using growth factors and stem cells.

We believe that the program bridges the gap between theoretical and clinical training regarding the use of growth factors and stem cells in dentistry and enables doctors to successfully use this technology in
their clinics.
It is important that our doctors acquire the depth of knowledge so as to make the right decisions when dealing with these types of cases. As a result, they will implement the right practices with less stress and in a more enjoyable manner. They will also understand and appreciate how to provide better care to their patients.
