At present, there are no adequate oral implantology educational programs in dental hygiene' schools in Japan. Consequently, there are very few hygienists in our hospital with sufficient experiences and knowledge related to dental implant treatment. As a result of the popularity of dental implant therapy, many patients ask our dental hygienists to explain dental implant treatments. The Division of Dental Hygiene of our hospital requested our section to provide some lectures on oral implantology. We therefore studied the changes in knowledge related to implant therapy acquired by the hygienists. Twenty-three oral hygienists and one nurse participated in this seminar. Ten were young hygienists (the length of their service being 3 years or less) and 14 were veterans (the length of their service being 7 to 26 years). Four lectures (general remarks, surgery, prosthodontics, and supportive therapy) were included in this seminar, and questionnaires were obtained before the first lecture and after the last lecture. Most of the attending hygienists had had little knowledge of, but some interest in implant dentistry. Before the seminar, half of them thought implant therapy to be unreliable. However, after the seminar, the great majority of the hygienists had some knowledge of and much interest in implant dentistry, and most of them thought implant therapy to be reliable. Some hygienists required (do you mean they "requested" more education or they were found to "need" more education? This is not clear) much more education related to implant supporting therapy and hoped to work in the Section of Oral Implantology.
