How I Structure the Mentorship Journey
An initial meeting to assist you to set your goals, resulting in the drawing up of an action plan or personal development plan (PDP)
Arrange meetings to support and motivate you to implement the plan. The meetings could be in person, online; or through booked telephone conversations. Learning will be facilitated through provision of practical information, guidance and links to resources.
There should be regular feedback, review of progress and recording of the achievements within the plan, which may well amend and feed back into the initial action plan as a result of learning.
The Initial Meeting
An informal call to assess your eve of experience, your practice environment and your individual needs, which would include a discussion about our future relationship and to introduce you to the mentorship documentation and essential records.
We can then agree on a format based on your individual circumstances, and future outlook.
I would need to have sight of certain documents as well as make sure you are familiar with current guidelines.
• Current GDC certificate
• Certificates for additional registerable qualifications
• Current indemnity certificate – specifically covering the clinician for the appropriate level of work with dental implants
• Hepatitis B certificate of immunisation and immunity
• Records of verifiable CPD for at least the last 2 years, which should include appropriate amounts of CPD related specifically to the core subjects of Radiography and Radiation protection (and, if appropriate CBCT referrer training certificate), Disinfection and Decontamination, and Medical Emergencies
• Be familiar with the latest version of the Training Standards in Implant Dentistry for General Dental Practitioners from the GDC. Having read the Training Standards in Implant Dentistry for General Dental Practitioners from the GDC.

Implant Learning Portfolio
The Portfolio provides:
Training Standards in Implant Dentistry
The 2016 “Training Standards in Implant Dentistry” document states that “Before undertaking implant treatment, a dentist must develop competence in the procedures involved in clinical assessment, treatment planning, and the placement and restoration of implants. The skills and knowledge necessary for competence should be developed through a training course in implant dentistry, with a suitably trained and experienced clinician acting as a mentor.” This further endorses the importance of the role of mentoring.

Dr Tatum is widely regarded as one of the world’s most skilled dental implant surgeons and is unmatched in his surgical and conceptual talent.
We developed and have been performing bone manipulation techniques for over 50 years. This includes ridge expansion, inter-positional augmentation techniques and of course the sinus augmentation procedure, which we also introduced. We also introduced onlay bone augmentation into implantology 49 years ago, but realize that, when possible, bone manipulation is safer, simpler, more predictable and less expensive.
I realised early on in my implant career that the body is a wonderful organism that is programmed to heal. So surgical techniques need to respect the body and work with it not against it. This means excellent surgical technique, delicate soft tissue handling and maintaining a blood supply to the surgical site.
Respect these principles and the body will heal and create the outcomes we desire. Bone manipulation techniques are a skillset that requires patience, skill and dedication to master but once this is achieved are of lifelong benefit to the practitioner.
I am passionate that the field of dental implantology should be led by clinicians who have their patients’ interests to the fore and not by companies whose primary interest is the sale of graft products and profits.
I have been teaching all my clinical life and in the early 1990’s came to work in the United Kingdom where, amongst others I met and worked with, Sam who is a friend, colleague and also my student. I worked him for approximately a quarter of a century.
From an early juncture it was evident that he would develop to be leaders in the field of implant dentistry in the UK and abroad. It gives me great pleasure to have played a part in his formative years and career development.
I am so proud that he is passing on his skills and knowledge to his professional colleagues so that the body of evidence-based knowledge is enriched for the benefit of patients and practitioners. It is important to make dental implantology accessible to all in the dental profession and therefore patients safe in the knowledge that they are obtaining a service that will improve the quality of their life.
“I am delighted that Sam is continuing to espouse the principals that he has developed with me. I am proud to endorse and commend the Bone Manipulation course (by Practical Implantology) to another generation of colleagues and know that under their talented and passionate tutelage you will benefit greatly”.
I wish all that attend good luck and great success in their dental implant career.
