Drs. Robert and Bobbi Stanley hosted 10 dentists from around North Carolina for another session of “Take Your Dental Implant Business to the Next Level”. The course focus is fully-guided dental implants and was held in Cary NC on November 4-5.

In addition to the primary technical lecture and hands-on clinical exercises, Dr. Robert Stanley —the Smile Engineer—performed a live patient surgery where students were led through the process of placing a fully-guided implant. Stanley Dentistry Nurse Anesthetist Zeb Thomeczek gave a presentation on pharmacology and sedation and Certified Dental Assistant Gayle Banic reviewed workflow and CEREC same day crown integration for implant restoration.

The two-day dental implant continuing education course was last offered in June in Cary NC and again received rave reviews for its small class size, depth of material and practical curriculum. Students and lecturers were treated to a beautiful dinner at Cary NC āN Cuisines restaurant where dentists and instructors could collaborate outside the classroom. Dr. Robert Stanley said, “Our course is unique because it offers the intimate, small class sizes and offers practical information that can be implemented on the first day back in the office. As a life-long learner, engineer and dentist, teaching the fully guided dental implant course is the culmination of several passions. Being able to share my knowledge and experience with others is a true honor.”

On Thursday, August 11, Drs. Robert & Bobbi Stanley traveled to BioHorizons corporate headquarters in Birmingham, AL as guests of Vice President of Research and Development, Fred Molz.

BioHorizons provides an extensive portfolio of dental implants and biologics products (used for gum grafts, tissue and bone grafts and resorbable wound dressings) in 85 markets worldwide. Their focus is on a comprehensive combination of science, innovation, and service. They are currently the 5^th largest implant company in the world and a global leader for biologic based solutions such as Alloderm.

The visit included meetings with team leaders from several departments including prosthetics, biologics, implants and practice development. “I knew the BioHorizons products were phenomenal before our trip to their Alabama office; but seeing their behind-the-scenes attention to detail was incredible. It reaffirmed my commitment to our partnership,” said Dr. Bobbi Stanley

Dr. Robert Stanley left a successful career as a Ph.D. Biomechanical Engineer to attend UNC School of Dentistry and join his wife Dr. Bobbi at the family dental practice. His focus at Stanley Dentistry in Cary NC is dental implants, tissue, and bone grafting as well as sedation dentistry. “Placing Dental Implants is essentially an engineering project of the utmost importance,” commented Dr. Rob. He continued, “You are placing a screw millimeters from vital tissues, nerves, blood vessels and sinus cavities. There is no room for error. It must be precise. I’m proud to partner with BioHorizons to give patients a beautiful, quality smile that will last a lifetime.”

Both dentists agreed that the highlight of the trip was meeting with senior members from each department as they shared plans for future projects. Drs. Stanley were honored to be asked for their feedback on products and services slated for future release. “As practicing dentists, we are using their products and placing dental implants daily. For BioHorizons to solicit our feedback really underscores their diligence and commitment to delivering quality,” noted Dr. Robert Stanley.

Drs. Robert and Bobbi Stanley are both Diplomates in the International Congress of Oral Implantologists and place fully guided implants at Stanley Dentistry in Cary NC and are Founders and Senior Instructors at Stanley Institute for Comprehensive Dentistry, a dental continuing education institute. Drs. Stanley are Adjunct Professors at UNC School of Dentistry in the department of prosthodontics.

Drs. Robert and Bobbi Stanley presented their latest continuing education dental course through Stanley Institute earlier this month. The course was called “Take Your Dental Implant Business to the Next Level” and had attendees from all over the country eager to learn about fully-guided dental implants.

Dr. Robert Stanley and Dr. Bobbi Stanley instructed the course with additional presentations from Nurse Anesthetist Zebulon Tomeczek and Certified Dental Assistant Gayle Banic. The two-day course provided the most up-to-date information on guided dental implant surgery through classroom lectures and live patient surgery. Attendees also placed multiple implants with hands-on clinical exercises.

The course was a huge success and the doctors can’t wait to offer it again in November! One attendee said, “It was truly the best CE course I’ve ever attended. I was lukewarm about implants and now I am on fire and ready to go!”

What Dr. Bobbi Stanley had to say: “The great thing about the classes at Stanley Institute is that they are small and intimate. This course proved to be another success including the hands-on portion and the live patient surgery. The information shared was incredible but one of the highlights was the evening get-together for dinner and socializing. That’s when you get to know who your doctors are and what they really want to learn.”

What Dr. Robert Stanley had to say: “It is an honor to be able to share my passion of dentistry by teaching. As an engineer and dentist, dental implants are quite simple. I want to share that simplicity with others so they can experience the joy and success of dental implants in their office.”
