Paradise Dental Institute sets sail this July with the launch of a live surgery implant training program and working conference, Summers in Paradise, at the Atlantis Resort and Casino in Nassau, Bahamas, from July 30 to Aug. 1. The working conference will explore the theme “Navigating the Past, Sailing to the Future” as well as the exciting but challenging world of implant dentistry.

The institute will feature its faculty members as speakers, or captains, and guest speakers on topics ranging from the introductory to full-mouth reconstruction surgery and prosthetics.

Our captains will navigate traditional sound surgical practices of the past and sail to guided treatment planning and surgery, which are both the present and future of dentistry.

The working conference will allow dentists to diagnose, treatment plan, perform surgery, handle post-surgery management and complications and deliver a final prosthesis all in one morning. The interactive morning sessions will provide dentists who are new to and also experienced in implant dentistry a deeper understanding of when, why and how.

The following is the preliminary ports of call:

July 30: “Introduction to Implants and Soft-tissue Grafting” by Dr. Rick Ferguson and Dr. Avi Schetritt
July 31: “Predictable Impression Taking and Temporization” by Dr. Stace Lind
July 31, 7 to 9 p.m.: Official All-White Launch Party
Aug. 1: “Guided and Non-Guided Full-Mouth Reconstruction” by Drs. Michael Pikos and Micheal Tischler

The conference features morning lectures from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. each day, with breaks in between. Lunch and exhibit-only hours are from 1 to 3 p.m., with a live calypso band, lunch featuring local and American cuisine and a happy hour with the exhibitors.

After 3 p.m., guests can continue with happy hour or explore Atlantis. Friday night is the official launch with a beach party and entertainment.

Dentists are encouraged to bring their families as Atlantis has something for everyone, and the group rate is available for three days before and after the conference for $226 per night, including spouses and children.

The institute and the summer conference are the brainchild of founder and CEO dental technician Indira Darling and co-founder and clinical director Dr. Derwin Munroe. The pair, who are both Bahamian-born and American-trained, will combine their love of dentistry and their beautiful country to launch a comprehensive implant-training program with the philosophy, “No man is an island.”

The institute will provide dentists and all team members with the surgical, theoretical, clinical and business skills necessary to build a successful implant practice. To this end, the faculty is composed of oral surgeons, ABOI board-certified implant general dentists, hygienists, lab technicians, surgical assistants and office managers. The faculty will provide continued mentoring and support to dental teams as they begin or advance in implant dentistry.
