ITI Study Club

Philadelphia Tri-State Area ITI Study Club

Established in 1980, the International Team for Implantology has become the largest independent academic organization in implant dentistry and the related field of tissue regeneration, with more than 20,000 members and fellows worldwide. Its founding members had the vision that progress in the field of implant dentistry is best achieved if an inter-disciplinary team of clinicians and researchers collaborate closely to improve products and treatment methods on an ongoing basis and to keep abreast of the latest findings in the field.

It unites professionals around the world from all fields of implant dentistry and hard and soft tissue regeneration. The organization strongly supports the premise of well-documented treatment guidelines backed by extensive clinical testing and the compilation of long-term results. As an independent academic association, it actively promotes networking and exchange among its membership. ITI members regularly share their knowledge and expertise from clinical practice at meetings, courses and congresses with the objective of constantly improving treatment methods and outcome for the benefit of their patients.

Dr. Fava and his associates, Dr. Dmitriy Klass and Dr. Eric Schoenebeck, are deeply committed to the ITI and strongly encourage all local dentists to do the same. ITI membership comes not only with study club benefits, but a great opportunity to connect with a camaraderie second to none of all dental organizations. Dr. Fava routinely recruits speakers that are traditionally seen on the highest podiums, all here at our Philadelphia Tri-State Area Study Club meetings, sharing first-hand access to the latest innovations in the fields of implant dentistry, esthetics and regeneration, striving to improve evidence-based treatment methods for optimal patient care.

Dr. Fava feels that his participation as a fellow of the ITI has enabled him to raise his level of clinical practice by sharing techniques and knowledge with renowned leaders from around the country and worldwide. He feels that his affiliation and continued involvement with the ITI, along with the ITI’s commitment to “raising the bar” in all areas of implant dentistry, contributes to his practice success and, more importantly, to the well-being of his patients.
