Your implantologist in Regensburg - Dr. Mathias Siegmund, M.Sc., M.Sc.

Placing dental implants precisely, for example to support crowns and bridges, requires meticulous care and accuracy. You should therefore choose your implantologist carefully before beginning treatment. Useful questions to ask include:

• What certifications does my implantologist in Regensburg hold?
• How many years of experience does my implantologist in Regensburg have?
• What quality standards does my implantologist in Regensburg meet?

If you want to make a well-informed choice, look for an implantologist certified by the German Society of Implantology (DGI) who also has several years of practical experience. These qualifications and experience are important when choosing someone to provide high-quality dental restorations.

What qualifications should your implantologist in Regensburg hold?

The term implantologist is not legally protected, so any dentist may describe themselves as an implantologist without necessarily being an expert in implantology. How can you recognise an expert, and what qualifications should your implantologist in Regensburg hold?

Implantology curriculum

• A dentist who completes a 130-hour implantology curriculum with a specialist society, such as BDZA, DGZI or DGI, and passes the final examination may use the designation certified implantologist in Regensburg. This designation is legally protected and requires a formal professional examination.

Focus of practice in implantology

• Dentists who have worked predominantly in implantology for at least three years, placed and restored at least 200 implants, and hold implantologist certification may advertise implantology as a focus of their practice. This authorisation is valid for a maximum of five years and must then be renewed through recertification.

Master of Science in Oral Implantology

• The Master of Science in Oral Implantology is an additional postgraduate course available after successfully completing the state examination in dentistry. The programme lasts 2.5 years and consists of 24 modules. Each module provides either fundamental theoretical knowledge of implantology or practical experience through observation and supervision at university clinics and specialist training practices. The course concludes with a master's thesis. Around 400 dentists in Germany hold this qualification.

Specialist in Implantology (EDA)

• The European Dental Association must appoint a dentist before they may use the title Specialist in Implantology (EDA). The EDA awards this title to particularly qualified members who can demonstrate 250 hours of continuing education, at least 400 implants placed and 150 implants restored. Only around 100 dentists in Europe hold this title.
