Hello Everyone, I just wanted to thank everyone for an amazing experience. Not that I would expect anything less from Dr. Garg and his amazingly helpful entourage. Coming fresh out of dental school and starting this whole process has been extremely fulfilling. Thank you to everyone, especially the instructors and Dr. Garg for taking the time to help this rookie. Never once did I feel like people looked down on me because of my inexperience. In fact everyone seemed to go out of the way to provide that extra bit of help. I guess the best part of the whole process has been the friendships created and the fact that I now feel extremely comfortable in doing almost any procedure. The DR trip gave me the confidence and knowledge needed to excell. Who knows, hopefully I ll be able to help others in the same way. Adios! Dr. Jason Potrykus I don t have words to express my gratitude for the change you have made on my career. I feel great after coming back from this wonderful trip, where besides learning so much, we were able to help so many people. I never thought that after just taking your continuum I would feel so ready to start providing this so needed service to my patients. I never imagined I could feel this confident after taking your course. Going on this trip, was the best decision!!! You are surrounded by such a professional team, no detail was left behind, and I m already signing up for the masters series and looking so forward for ANOTHER surgical live patient trip as well. Carla Bustillo D.D.S Hello Everyone, I have wanted to place implants for several years, but have been scared off by what the oral surgeons would say. I started the continuum course last fall. I wanted to gain as much confidence as I could before venturing on my own. The continuum course gave me a core knowledge of implant placement with bone morphology. Going to the live patient course in the Dominican Republic increased my surgical skills and understanding to level beyond what I would have ever gained in my office. Dr. Garg and the wonderful instructors took me from placing my first implant on a live patient to being confident with placing implants on my own. The gratitude of the people we treated was so rewarding. Thank you, Dr. John Krupka This was by far the most valuable program I ve participated in during my career to date. It was rewarding clinically because I got to experience lateral wall and crestal approach sinus lifts, ridge splits, and flapless surgery implant placement. It was so rewarding emotionally because the Dominican people are extremely warm, friendly, and truly appreciative of the work we did. It touched my heart to be able to bring this type of care to such wonderful people. I would highly recommend this. Drs Garg, Chen, and Cha are a wealth of knowledge, and I will put to use what I did and learned this weekend on Monday morning. The confidence to do more procedures is priceless.

Few things are as inspiring or motivating as a group of people, many of them strangers, joining together for a common interest. There s no way I could have anticipated what to expect when I boarded the plane that Friday morning. To explain it to family and friends was I don t know, I m going to Santo Domingo to do some charity dentistry or something. Little did I know that I was taking the first step up a career changing path. I started placing implants around 4 years ago. When I signed up for Level 1 last year I figured it was a good way to bang out my CE credits and give myself a little refresher course. I had no idea that first phone call would lead me to the place I am today. Getting and staying on board with Dr. Garg is easily the most significant decision I ve made in my professional career. Going to Santo Domingo was icing on the cake. It s one thing to place a couple of implants and do a sinus lift on a cadaver head. It s another, to spend an entire weekend doing it to live patients. The techniques and procedures were put forth and taught in such a way that I had to ask myself, How am I not doing this? Amazing that I was performing surgeries that less than a week prior would have been quickly referred to the local specialist. As dentists, we are constantly criticizing ourselves: That margin could ve been smoother. That implant could ve been straighter. Yet, when Dr. Garg asked me after my final procedure of the weekend (anterior ridge split with simultaneous implant placement), Are you impressed with yourself? I had no problem saying yes. In fact, the sense of accomplishment was quite satisfying. Furthermore, I was surrounded by colleagues feeling the exact same thing which made it that much sweeter. Most importantly, I left with the skills intact to confidently offer these services to my patients, further establishing myself as a comprehensive care practitioner. Finally, I loved the evenings when everyone took off their doctor hats and became regular people again. Sharing war stories and getting to know everyone injected a social aspect into this experience which created an interesting camaraderie as opposed to competition. I mean let s face it; How often do you root for the guy next to you? Here however, I found myself revelling in others success as well as my own. A heartfelt thanks, which goes way beyond than what can be put into words, to Dr Garg, the surgical faculty, and THE MOST dedicated, compassionate and competent staff I have EVER had the pleasure to work with, for providing this opportunity to grow and excel both personally and professionally. Regards, Seth A. Shapiro, DDS
In January 2011 I was with a great group of doctors and a fantastic group of support staff that went to the Dominican Republic. I feel great pride with vast amount of procedures we were able to provide, and ultimately enhancing these patient s lives. The bonus for this trip was the ability to perform and learn a variety of procedures from simple to advanced surgical techniques on a large number of patients. Dr. Garg again put together an incredibly talented group of instructors for this event. I came away with new surgical procedures and tweaks on surgeries I was already performing in my own practice. I would highly recommend not only taking the Masters Series, but also going on this mission to the Dominican Republic. I plan on continuing and reviewing my implant studies with Dr. Garg. Thank you Arun for this opportunity to enhance my life and renew my love for Dentistry. Truly, Steven Treman, DDS. Having never placed an implant before, I definitely had the jitters on my trip down to Santiago, Dominican Republic with Dr. Garg and his extremely competent staff. A live patient course was exactly what I needed, and that is what I got. By the time I left Santiago, was my confidence was at an all time high. I had the opportunity to place close to 20 implants over a three-day period. The close supervision I received during my training can not be matched by any other program. That I am sure of. Besides placing implants, I had the opportunity to improve on all of my surgical skills including extractions, bone grafting, and suturing. Heck, my suturing got so good by the end, I thought about stitching myself a sweater. For those dentists in our group with more experience and needing less supervision, the opportunity for more complicated cases were endless. Aside from the vast amount of experience I received, the less priveleged people of Santiago that received all of their care for free were very appreciative of our services. We truly were treated like royalty by everyone we encountered on our trip. Being a third world country, I was really impressed with the overall preparedness and pre-arrival arrangements that were taken care of by Katrina and the rest of the staff. Probably one of the greatest assets of this course beyond the hands-on was the comraderie developed with other dentists in the group. I was able to learn so much from talking to fellow attendees. You really have to experience all of this for yourself to truly appreciate what I refer to as the best hands-on CE ever! The greatest piece of advice I would give prospective students is to just do it. I went on this course after attending just the third session of the continuum and never having placed a single dental implant (in a human being at least). Thanks again to Dr. Garg and his amazing staff. Neil Charaipotra, DDS.
