[![Minimally Invasive Dental Implant Surgery](https://blog.curasaninc.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Minimally_Invasive_Dental_Implant_Surgery.jpg?width=269&height=343&name=Minimally_Invasive_Dental_Implant_Surgery.jpg)](https://blog.curasaninc.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Minimally_Invasive_Dental_Implant_Surgery.jpg)During this year’s Meisinger 2016 Annual High Altitude Comprehensive Implant Symposium, curasan Inc. was lucky enough to sit down with **Dr. Dan Cullum** to talk about the book ***Minimally Invasive Dental Implant Surgery*:** the new clinical text he co-wrote along with Douglas Deporter DDS.

As someone who has learned, taught and developed different techniques over the last 15 years, Dr. Cullum has seen a significant impact for his patients that have resulted in shortened treatment times and reduced discomfort as well as combining multiple procedures into one – all of which he details within the book.

**Some highlights of the information and insights we gained from talking with Dr. Dan Cullum include:**

- The audience of the book is “*established implant practitioners -- from those that are starting to do more advanced procedures to those with significant clinical experience*.”
- Cullum is hoping that readers will better understand ways “*to do things that hurt less and result in faster healing*” which is why “*there are a lot of images that show both graphical and photographical demonstrations of the techniques*.”
- There is also a great deal of information on various ‘stackable skills,’ “*that can be integrated into various treatment protocols*.”
- Overall Dr. Cullum said he enjoyed the process of writing the book and working with, “*multiple contributors from all over the world who had different techniques and experiences yet all possessed a common philosophy that helped to knit together a cohesive understanding and comprehensive picture of minimally invasive treatment*.”
- The biggest takeaways Dr. Cullum dispensed were that dentists should **“***always do the best thing for the patient***”** and how to begin to utilize “*a number of different philosophies on how to perform patient centered treatment that results in excellent and long-term stable outcomes with minimized risk*.”
