Empower Implant Institute Launches Advanced AI-Driven Dental Training Program

BILLINGS, MT – The Empower Implant Institute, headed by Dr. Matthew Larsen of Yellowstone Family Dental, has officially launched a new training initiative focused on AI-driven full-arch implant procedures. This comprehensive program aims to educate dentists from across the nation, equipping them with advanced techniques that integrate artificial intelligence with digital and surgical dental practices.

Dr. Larsen noted the program’s intent is to advance dental practitioners from dealing with single implant placements to more complex full-arch cases. “AI technology has completely transformed what we can achieve. We’re excited to share this knowledge so dentists can implement immediate-load implants and 3D-printed restorations in their communities,” he remarked.

The curriculum of the institute includes training in AI-driven planning, utilizing algorithms to evaluate bone density and crucial anatomical features before surgery. It also covers the creation of 3D-printed guides that ensure the precision of implant angles and depths and integrates in-house lab operations for quicker turnaround times and heightened quality control.

Highlighting the relevance of AI in modern dentistry, Dr. Larsen pointed out the growing demand for reliable, fast, and high-precision dental restoration solutions. The advanced capabilities provided by AI reduce the risk involved in complex dental cases and streamline the diagnostics and surgical planning process. Dr. Larsen shared personal insights, “Most of my patients arrive thinking they have no options. Showcasing the capabilities of AI and in-house tech can change that perception in just one treatment session from hopeless to hopeful.”

Dr. Larsen, who has over two decades of experience in complex implant cases and full-arch restorations, has limited his practice to focus on these intricate procedures, often dealing with patients who have been considered difficult cases due to insufficient bone availability or chronic infections.

The Empower Implant Institute, based in Billings, Montana, represents a significant real-world application of AI in healthcare, potentially setting a new standard for dental care provision nationwide.
