‘I attended Peter Sochor’s courses because implant work was coming into the lab. I wanted to learn how to do things the right way and Peter taught me that precision was the key. I particularly found the hands-on sessions useful, and the opportunity to tap Peter’s wealth of knowledge. After attending the courses, I was inspired to go out and actively seek more implant business and now 40 percent of our work is with implants – it is the future of dentistry! Peter has been a mentor and an inspiration for me ever since I met him. I often pick his brains on difficult cases.’
