I'm not a dentist or oral surgeon, but a patient who did a lot of

I think the #1 factor you should look at is EXPERIENCE; and secondly
if that experience has led to good results.

Thanks for the reply.

I believe that you are the same poster that went to a university for
implant.

Even though the dental schools are supervised by dentists, aren't you
taking a risk by having students (without the important experience you
mentioned) perform transplants on you?

And is it difficult to get an appointment, i.e., long waiting lists,
at these dental schools?
