In particular, the student know implant systems and their components, learn and know the most important factors related to the patient that improve the prognosis of the implants, know the anatomical differences between the tissues around the teeth and dental implants, know what are the main evidence on the success and survival of implants and what are the determining factors with particular emphasis on periodontology, diagnosing the main peri-implant disease, recognize the indications for the treatment of peri-implant diseases, recognize and use appropriately the main tools used for implants, plan the maintenance of the implants.
