Through a special affiliation arrangement with the institute, first year postgraduate periodontology students at Maurice H. Kornberg School of Dentistry at Temple University attend and participate on a tuition-free basis (the usual cost is approximately $22,000) in six three-day advanced surgical oral implantology courses given in Detroit, Michigan at the Misch Institute under the direction of Carl Misch. In tandem, Misch was appointed as Clinical Professor and Director of Oral Implantology in the Department of Periodontology at the dental school.[5] Drs. Jon Suzuki, director of the periodontal program at Temple Dental School, and Thomas Rams, chairman of the same program, are both on surgical faculty at the institute.[6]
