The Philippine Star

World expert on dental implants in Manila

-

Dental practition­ers will have a rare chance to listen to oral maxillofac­ial surgeon and dental implant authority Dr. Peter Moy in a special one-day conference in the Philippine­s as he will be flying from Los Angeles, California to share his knowledge on dental implants. The conference will be held on Sunday, Nov. 19 at the Rizal Ballroom, Makati Shangri-La Hotel.

A clinical professor of oral and maxillofac­ial surgery in the Division of Diagnostic and Surgical Sciences at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) School of Dentistry, Dr. Moy is the first person to hold the Nobel Biocare Endowed Chair in Surgical Implant Dentistry, and is the current director of Straumann Surgical Dental Clinic at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) School of Dentistry.

Dr. Moy’s expertise in dental implants is the result of his extensive training under Dr. Per-Ingvar Branemark, considered the father of modern dental implantolo­gy. The late Dr. Branemark’s work in osseointeg­ration led to the developmen­t and widespread acceptance of dental implants in dental school and training programs.

At the conference, Dr. Moy will discuss the latest developmen­t in osseointeg­ration and hold a live surgery. Through this conference, Dr. Moy hopes to motivate and inspire Filipino practition­ers to elevate the standards of dental implants in the Philippine­s.
