Standing alongside and in support of our comprehensive course programme, VSSAcademy also offers access to a personal Mentoring and Supervision service.

In accordance with GDC guidelines, we believe wholeheartedly in personally supporting our course delegates and any dentists who have undergone implant training on other courses, through at least their first 15-20 implant cases.

We also provide continued and unlimited mentoring support through all levels of implant case complexity. This means that whether you are a newcomer to the world of Implant Dentistry, or are an experienced hand, we can guide you through any number of cases as you require

All our Supervisors are highly experienced clinicians with extensive practical and educational experience in placing implants to complex levels. Each undergoes a selection process to ensure all reach the same minimum standard in Supervision and Tutoring. We will introduce you to an experienced Supervisor and if you are both happy to proceed, assume a private Mentoring contract between you and your Mentor. VSSAcademy assumes no liability for patients, mentoring or clinical treatment.
