South Africa Association of Osseointegration

The Southern African Association of Osseointegration (SAAO) has been formed after the amalgamation of all South African implant related societies on 1 December 2013. Our aim is to serve as an umbrella society and a mutual platform through which to express developing views, knowledge and consensus on practice to a large group of South African dentist.

Continued education is an important means for gaining knowledge. The SAAO is proud to present a novel education program for structured E-Learning in partnership with Dental Campus.

The SAAO want to promotes the distribution of knowledge throughout our profession and ultimately better the care of our patients.

We are further striving to form worldwide affiliations to independent implant bodies and organisations to improve academic cross pollination.

The SAAO is structured to represent all role players in the dental implant fraternity, from the dedicated implant specialist to the general dental practitioner as well as the laboratory and trade.

The national body consists out of three branches, Western Cape, Gauteng and Kwazulu Natal. Each of these groups is autonomous as far as local educations events are concerned and caters to the specific needs of the region.

With your membership you support us in promoting the transfer of knowledge without bias to any specific implant company.
