Dentist Training
Dr Neil and Confident Dental provide both regular training events, and one-to-one coaching and mentoring.
Training Events
Our regular training events use our live-feed AV and seminar room facilities.
Coaching and mentoring
We offer three coaching and mentoring options, depending on your skills, experience and requirements.
Option 1
You are welcome to be as involved as much or as little as you wish during the surgery. You can either watch Dr Neil work, assist with parts of the surgery or receive coaching and mentoring as you work if required.
All implant lab and component charges are paid by Confident Dental.
The patient implant fees are payable to Confident Dental. There is no cost to you.
Option 2
You are welcome to be as involved as much or as little as you wish during the assessment or surgery. You can either watch Dr Neil work, assist with parts of the surgery or receive coaching and mentoring as you work if required.
This option is especially useful if you wish to establish your own implant services for your patients, but don’t have your own equipment at this stage.

Option 3
This option may be suitable for those who are more established, maybe with their own equipment, especially if…
- You don’t want to commit to a lot of time away from your practice
- You haven’t found a course that offers you real support/hand holding as required once the course is completed.
- You want someone to give specific, focused help on how to implement and set up implant protocols and systems for success in your own practice including long term maintenance.
- You want to work with someone who has already succeeded in developing an implant service for his patients, is approachable and works in busy dental practice like you do.
- You have done some implant theory and/or clinical courses and have some knowledge of the theory, but you want guidance on how to do it in your own practice.
- You need the support of a friendly colleague who has done this successfully for themselves previously so as to ease the risk element for you and reduce your ‘fear factor’.
Help with treatment planning
Dr Neil and his team can help with any logistical/ treatment planning, or clinical concerns relating to dental implants, for example…
- How long should appointments be booked for realistically?
- How do I set my fees appropriately?
- What equipment is essential at the start?
- What implant system to buy?
- How do I get the most support from an implant system ‘Rep’?
- Which cases should I attempt in the early stages?
- How do I sell and market implant services to my patients?
- Who can I turn to with any implant related concern?
Features included in monthly mentor/coaching program:
- Implant Mentoring Gym – phone & e-mail mentoring with me as required by you.
- 10% reduction on any courses run at
- Confident Dental Care & Implants Centre for you or your nurse.
- One-to-One Guided Surgery – up to 2 sessions per quarter (i.e. Monday to
- Thursday am or pm session) included in the monthly coaching/mentor fee. These sessions are for direct assistance with YOUR own cases for implant or bone/sinus grafting surgery at your own practice (if within 60 min travelling time of Confident Dental Care & Implants Centre, Stroud)
- You perform your own implant surgery on your patient with shoulder-to-shoulder assistance & guidance from Dr Colin Neil as required.
The monthly fee for this option is £650.
