The Bath Spa Dentistry mentoring programme is available to delegates who have completed the Implantology Year Programme. Delegates have the opportunity to visit the Bath Spa Dentistry practice to observe live surgery, or have the option of Dr McNulty attending their practice (at an additional cost) to oversee procedures and assist with complex cases.

"I enrolled onto the Bath Spa Dentistry Year Programme because I would like to offer my own patients the option of dental implants, by being able to treat simple cases at my practice. Attending the course has enabled me to develop an understanding of how implants are placed and how they are restored. Confidence is the key - knowing how to deal with all the circumstances that may arise. Dermot McNulty's wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm for his work is inspiring, and I have the utmost faith in his skills. Bath Spa Dentistry and DENTSPLY Friadent have provided fabulous support and their approach has suited the way I like to learn. I am learning lots of additional things as well as how to place implants."

Dr Brett Garner, Serenity Dental, Fareham

"I am already restoring implants and would like to be able to manage simple surgical and restorative cases in my practice in the future. The comprehensive year long training is giving me the time to reflect upon the way I am working and will also provide me with a good insurance policy. Dermot McNulty has excellent presentation skills and the overall approach is very good. The programme even covers complex bone grafts and I have found the soft tissue management component particularly helpful."
