Live Dental Implant Training
and Advanced Surgery Courses

There are 3 skill levels available in which participants, grouped in pairs, can expect to undergo 60+ hours of practical surgery to gain experience and apply learned theoretical concepts on implantology.

Level 1: Implant Placement

Participants are guaranteed to perform 30 Implants in 5 days, with cases ranging from Standard to Moderately-complicated, all supervised and assisted by experienced implantologists, thereby providing practical experience.

Level 2: Sinus Elevations

Participants are guaranteed to perform 5 Sinus Lifts in 5 days under the supervision and assistance of experienced instructors. Apart from this, various techniques and procedures such as Bone Augmentation and Effective Management of Complications due to Implant Surgery will also be discussed.

Level 3: Demanding Cases

Participants are required to treat a number of demanding cases at this level. These include those involving Highly Atrophic Bone, Comprehensive Bone Augmentation, using Titanium Mesh, to name a few.

Continuing education focused on Dental Implantology has been theoretical at most. From an educational viewpoint, the subject is not given much attention and as such, specializing in this area can prove to be a time consuming endeavor. Further complicating this is the fact that most programs on implantology rarely provide participants with practical experience by working directly on patients, leaving them unable to cope with real life situations

Trinon Collegium Practicum (TCP) challenges this by offering engaging practice-oriented courses such as the Q-Implant Marathon, accredited by the General Academy of Dentistry who approved and provided that upon completion of said course, all participants are entitled to receive 60 Continuing Education Hours.

The Q-Implant Marathon sessions are held in:

1.Dominican Republic
2.Cambodia
3. Laos

Each location holds 4-8 sessions a year. For more information regarding the dates and specific locations, please contact us at Implantology Courses.

Dominican Republic, Santo Domingo

For those living in the USA, we recommend attending the sessions held at Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

These run for about 10-12 hours/day and at the end of the course, participants will receive a certificate indicating the number of performed implants/operations performed. In addition, they receive 60 continuing education hours from the Academy of General Dentistry.

Sessions are currently being limited to smaller groups. The number of participants depends on the date/session/location, and the number of op-booths available (10 op-booths = 20 participants working in teams of 2).

An international of team varying nationalities, all fluent in English, and possess the required experience, knowledge and skills best suited to teach the course compose our team. With each one having numerous accolades and success in their field of work, we make sure those who do the job know the job, and are excellent at it.

The Q-Implant Marathon is the only course in the world that guarantees attendees a guaranteed number of live surgeries, specifically:

-As the LEAD, 30 implants in 5 days
-ASSISTING another 30 implants performed by their partner

Yes, provided you completed a minimum of 50 Implant Cases in the last 2 years. This is a must since Level 2 Cases are more advanced in nature.

One should be equipped with the necessary basic surgical skills such as Incision and Suture. Basic knowledge of Implantology and theories on it are expected, as well. Moreover, participants should familiarize themselves with the Q-Method, including the time period allotment the course requires to avoid conflicts in schedule.

We will provide basic surgical equipment to the participants. However, we advise participants who prefer specific brands (or equipment such as loupes), to bring their own for personal use.

Finally, one (1) set of scrubs for each participant shall be provided so it is recommended that participants bring extra sets in case something unexpected occurs

All work performed during the course is on local patients and all surgery is free of charge  for the patients. The operations are all performed with the highest quality care and concern for the welfare of the patient.

Regular follow-ups are provided by our team, clinic, or staff at the university.

The first Q-Implant Marathon was held in Santa Clara, Cuba in December of 2003. The core principles of this course stemmed from the belief that doctors should have the opportunity to quickly gain in-depth experience in implantology through direct patient interaction. Trinon Collegium Practicum founders understood that there was a lack of practical educational seminars for doctors who wished to become proficient in the placement of implants.

Since then, we have organized more than 150 courses across three nations, with over 3,000 dentists trained and given first hand practical experience on Implantology Surgery. This has yielded some 100,000+ implants placed on patients from the local areas.
