With 35 years of experience working in the field of dental implants and a dozen inventions and patents, I would like to share a few words about the evolution of this advanced technology, and its pitfalls in Lithuania. Together with Prof. S. Čepulis, Dr. O. Surovas and Dr. V.Vaitkus, I had the opportunity to develop original implants and instruments, and began my dental implant practice in Lithuania back in 1981. I defended my first dissertation on dental implants in Lithuania in 1988. I have performed several thousand implant operations and improved prosthesis on implants, and in 2007 I began lecturing on dental surgery and prosthesis implantation to dental students in the training facilities of our clinic.
I have been working in the field of endodontics for thirty years. In my daily practice I face both simple cases and complications (root perforation, foreign bodies in the root canal, crown and root cracks, breaks and fractures); I also deal with patients having expressed nausea reflex, limited mouth opening, anxiety and fear. I have to perform medical procedures under general anaesthesia, procedures for children and patients with mental and physical disabilities.
