ACCELERATED IMPLANT DENTISTRY EDUCATION

FACULTY

LEON CHEN, D.M.D., M.S.

For the past 20 years Dr. Leon Chen has been known as the inventor of Hydraulic Sinus Condensing (HSC) technique, a minimally-invasive sinus lift technique recognized as a gold standard. He was the first clinician to utilize EMD for root coverage and sinus lift. Chen also developed the flapless sinus, 5-in-1 immediate loading technique, vertical augmentation without block, and the most difficult task “lingual augmentation.” Now he is developing a procedure and instrumentation that will revolutionize complicated implant cases into simplified cases, called the Hydraulic Membrane Lift (HML) with navigation. Dr. Chen is a founder of Dental Implant Institute World, known as top facilities in both implant treatment and education throughout the world. A Harvard dental graduate and Northwestern periodontist, Dr. Chen is now a visiting faculty member at the University of Pennsylvania. A consultant to numerous implant and publishing companies, Dr. Chen holds more than 30 patents and trademarks for surgical instruments, bone, implant navigation software, and implant prosthodontic parts and fixtures.
