While there are people and organizations who would like the general public to believe that there is such a thing as a dental specialty of Implant Dentistry, there is NO SUCH THING!

There are organizations who give credentials and awards to dentists that make it look like these dentists are highly trained implant specialists, but these credentials are unrecognized by the American Dental Association. In some states, it is considered illegal to advertise these credentials.

The specialty areas of dentistry that are most aligned with dental implants are Prosthodontics, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Periodontics.

It is a speciality ,infact it should be made one ,implant placement has become a mockery with so many dentists without any proper training ,everybody makes his or own judgments.

It is a coming up branch which still needs polishing and we should support to make it a new specialty for dentistry and accept it as any other branch of dentistry.
