Did you know the doctors at OIRD lead and teach at the premier implant training center in the United States? The Midwest Implant Institute (MII) provides a distinct educational opportunity for doctors and staff with a true “hands-on” clinical and surgical experience. For over 40 years, it has proven to raise the level of implant expertise for countless doctors throughout the United States. MII training is in high demand, helping Dental Schools develop their dental implant programs and teaching thousands of doctors to become dental implant surgeons.

They truly are the implant gurus! Highly recommend!
