Dr. Nguyen’s Continuing Education

Dr. Nguyen's continuing education

“I was in Miami last weekend to attend a 2-day dental continuing education course with Dr. Robert Marx, who is a legendary oral surgeon in the U.S., and Dr. Tomas Albrektsson from Sweden, who was one of the first pioneers in dental implantology 50 years ago.”

“I learned a lot about bone grafting with growth factor BMP (Bone Morphogenetic Protein), PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma), drug induced ONJ (Osteonecrosis of the Jaws), implantology history, peri-implantitis… It was such an honor for me to be part of the master-mind class of 30 general dentists from the U.S. and Canada to listen to the two well known and respected doctors! With the knowledge gained, I can certainly provide better care for my patients.”
