Immediate implant placement allows clinicians to replace a tooth at extraction, reducing treatment time while maintaining bone and soft tissue contours. When guided by the ITI SAC Classification and meticulous planning, it offers predictable, esthetic outcomes — proving that efficiency and precision can go hand in hand.
Every year in June, the ITI opens the application portal for its Scholarships. We took this opportunity to ask one of our former Scholars, Liezl Dawson from South Africa, about her experience, her daily work and what she liked most about it. She started her Scholarship year in September 2024 at the ITI Scholarship Center in Copenhagen, Denmark.
This feature takes a 360° look at both the personal and professional lives of the dedicated leadership teams who drive ITI’s mission in their respective regions. In this issue, we interview the ITI Finland.
Implant placement and loading are two parts of the same clinical strategy, not separate choices. The 2026 systematic review from the Harvard School of Dental Medicine team updates the Gallucci framework with a far larger evidence base, clarifying which accelerated protocols—such as Type 1A (immediate placement + immediate loading)—are now well validated and where options like Type 1B still carry higher risk. It also confirms late placement protocols as the most consistently predictable pathways, while showing how early placement can balance biological safety with shorter treatment times.
For Dr. Milda Vitosyte, her ITI Scholarship year at Queen Mary University of London and Barts wasn’t about counting clinic hours — it was about moments that changed how she thinks and works. Under Prof. Shakeel Shahdad’s mentorship, she experienced the power of collaboration where surgery, prosthodontics, and research meet.
