About

The ITI is a worldwide Association of professionals in implant dentistry. 

The objectives of the ITI are the promotion and dissemination of knowledge about implant dentistry and related fields.

The International Team for Implantology (ITI) was founded in 1980 by 12 experts planning ahead for the future of their field. 

Their objective was an alliance of specialists to pursue research and development in an important and as yet untapped medical area on a voluntary and idealistic basis. 

Today, the ITI has more than 15,000 Fellows and Members. Through its growing number of national Sections, the ITI ensures the exchange of expertise and know-how via a modern, quality-conscious end efficient network.

  • <p></p><p>As practitioners we are driven to seek out the most appropriate medical and technological solutions available in order to provide our patients with the best long-term treatment possible. The ITI supports this process through its educational offerings, of which the ITI World Symposium is its flagship event. In 2017, the theme of the ITI World Symposium is “Key factors for long-term success” and is directly linked to the importance the ITI places in evidence-based information for application in daily clinical practice.</p><p>For well over 35 years, the ITI has focused on supporting and promoting evidence-based science and has built up a deservedly strong reputation for rigorous examination of new methods and technologies. The ITI World Symposium serves as a regular meeting point for all those who are eager to hear about and experience these latest findings within the field presented by an international faculty of top speakers. The last ITI World Symposium in Geneva drew more than 4,200 participants from 80 countries.</p><p>By holding its World Symposium in Basel, the ITI has turned a full circle and gone back to its roots. The organization was founded in nearby Waldenburg and held its very first World Symposia in Basel in 1988 and 1992. Basel itself is very welcoming with a charming old town and the river Rhine that weaves its way through the city and into neighboring Germany. The meeting will be held at Messe Basel, with its newly refurbished and extended infrastructure and facilities, thus ensuring a great event for participants.</p><p>We look forward to seeing you.</p><p>Prof. Dr. David CochranProf. Dr. Daniel WismeijerDr. Stephen Chen</p><p>ITI PresidentChair Scientific Program CommitteeITI President elect</p><p><br></p><p><b>Topic Areas Plenary Sessions</b></p><ul><li>Today's state-of-the-art keys</li><li>Today's state-of-the-art keys when choosing materials</li><li>Today's state-of-the-art keys when placing implants in the esthetic zone</li><li>Keys to going digital</li><li>Combining state-of-the-art keys for everyday practice with a peek into the future</li><li>New keys to new doors</li></ul><p><b>Topic Areas Breakout Sessions</b></p><ul><li>Keys to efficient treatment protocols</li><li>Keys to managing challenging cases</li><li>Keys to esthetic implant treatment</li><li>Keys to ridge augmentation procedures</li><li>Keys to treating edentulous patients</li><li>The young professionals program</li></ul><p></p>

  • <p></p><p><i>Gentili Colleghe e cari Colleghi,</i></p><p><i>Sono trascorsi più di due anni dal nostro Congresso di Venezia, che ha costituito un evento di grandissima importanza e risonanza. In questo intervallo di tempo la nostra associazione ha proseguito la sua crescita, arrivando a contare oltre 15.000 tra membri e fellow e confermando di essere la più importante organizzazione scientifica nel campo dell’implantologia a livello internazionale. </i></p><p><i>E’ stata costante anche la crescita, sia in termini numerici che come qualità dei contenuti culturali, della nostra Sezione, che vede nell’attività degli Study Club il suo cuore pulsante.</i></p><p><i>A questi successi hanno contribuito, in maniera determinante, i membri e i fellow italiani, con la grande qualità del loro contributo clinico e scientifico.</i></p><p><i>Alcuni di loro, unitamente ad altri speaker nazionali e internazionali di altissimo livello, sono infatti inseriti a pieno titolo nel programma culturale del nostro prossimo Congresso, al quale farà da cornice la città di Bologna, splendida e accogliente allo stesso tempo, sede ideale per eventi scientifici e culturali di alto livello.</i></p><p><i>Abbiamo voluto impostare il programma congressuale su un tema unico che faccia da filo conduttore, quello del “<b>piano di trattamento in implantoprotesi</b>”. L’obiettivo è quello di analizzare gli aspetti critici nella formulazione del piano di trattamento, in modo da fornire risposte condivise ai grandi dubbi clinici e consentire ai partecipanti di ricevere il “take home message” per soluzioni terapeutiche alla portata di ciascuno di noi, nell’ottica di garantire ai nostri trattamenti semplificazione e predicibilità di risultati. </i></p><p><i>L’intento è, quindi, quello di proporre approcci diversi per la soluzione di problematiche simili, certi che ciascuno possa chiarire i propri dubbi e trovare spunti per un’attività clinica più efficace ed efficiente, aiutato anche dalle discussioni che da sempre animano i Congressi ITI.</i></p><p><i>Le novità di quest’anno sono le sessioni monotematiche, caratterizzate da un vivace confronto tra più speaker guidati da un coordinatore, e la sessione parallela del venerdì pomeriggio dedicata agli amici odontotecnici, che saranno coinvolti anche nella sessione plenaria del sabato mattina, durante la quale l’attenzione sarà focalizzata sulla presentazione di casi clinici trattati con un approccio multidisciplinare.</i></p><p><i>Siamo, quindi, particolarmente lieti di invitarvi a Bologna per il 6° Congresso della Sezione ITI Italia.</i></p><p><i>Paolo Casentini</i></p><p><i>Chairman Sezione ITI Italia</i></p><p><i>Raffaele Cavalcanti</i></p><p><i>Education Delegate Sezione ITI Italia</i></p><br><p></p>
