Discover the 12 Secrets to Dental Implants

Want to know the truth about dental implants?
Our expert guide reveals all.

Dr. Ana Ionescu of Middleton St George Dental Care is proud to announce her completion of the comprehensive eight-part Hürzeler/Zuhr Master Class series in Periodontology and Implant Therapy, earning her the distinguished designation of Hürzeler/Zuhr Master Clinician, officially recognised by the Wolfgang Goethe University of Frankfurt/Main.

Designed and taught entirely by renowned instructors Prof. Dr. Markus Hürzeler and Dr. Otto Zuhr at their Munich academy, this rigorous programme represents one of dentistry’s most respected continuing education pathways. Grounded in the principles of “Evidence Based” and “Clinically Relevant” education, the curriculum blends advanced microsurgical theory with intensive hands-on training, live surgery observation, and small-group learning.

Dr. Ionescu’s training encompassed the full spectrum of modern periodontal and implant therapy—from minimally invasive management of gum disease and regenerative techniques, to soft and hard tissue reconstruction, peri-implantitis treatment, and advanced immediate implant protocols. Throughout, the emphasis remained on biological understanding, precise decision-making, and microsurgical execution.

For patients at Middleton St George Dental Care, this achievement means access to care informed by the latest global standards. Dr. Ionescu’s refined expertise supports more predictable, tissue-preserving treatments with enhanced aesthetic outcomes and faster recovery. Her commitment to evidence-based, individualised treatment planning ensures that every patient benefits from a thoughtful, biologically driven approach—whether managing complex gum disease, restoring missing teeth with implants, or achieving natural-looking soft tissue results.

“This journey has deepened my clinical perspective and technical precision,” says Dr. Ionescu. “I’m excited to bring these advanced, minimally invasive techniques to my patients, ensuring care that is both scientifically sound and personally tailored.”

The Hürzeler/Zuhr Academy is internationally recognised for excellence in postgraduate dental education. Dr. Ionescu now joins a global community of clinicians dedicated to advancing periodontal and implant care through continuous learning and evidence-based practice.
