Apple Dental Implant Study Club

The Apple Dental Implant Study Club, facilitated by Dr. Ali Mehdi, is a high-level community dedicated to clinical advancement. Our purpose is to create a collaborative and educational environment where clinicians can significantly enhance their surgical and prosthetic skills. We achieve this through structured discussion, peer-to-peer learning, and the unique opportunity for live case participation. The core focus remains on delivering predictable, efficient, and evidence-based outcomes across all domains of implant and reconstructive Surgical dentistry.

This study club is ideal for clinicians seeking to deepen their practical skill set while learning in a supportive, mentorship-driven environment.
