BILL SCHAEFFER

Implant Surgeon & The Implant Centre Co-founder

​

Bill is exceptionally qualified for his role as one of the implant surgeons at The Implant Centre. Having trained in the UK, Bill is both a dentist and a medical doctor. He is also a qualified surgeon and a registered Specialist Oral Surgeon. As if this was not enough, he also has both a Fellowship and Membership from the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

 

His extensive background in Oral Surgery provided him with the perfect starting point for learning the finer points of implant surgery when he placed his first implant back in 1996. Since then, he has gone on to become one of the most experienced implantologists in the UK and has pioneered techniques now used by implantologists throughout the world.

 

Bill says, “Using techniques adapted from other branches of surgery, it’s been possible to minimise the amount of surgery that our patients need to go through for their implant treatments and that’s great for our patients”.

 

Bill’s extensive experience has allowed him to achieve an impressive success rate of over 99% for implants. As he himself admits, “I am obsessive about auditing the implants that I place. Without this you simply cannot tell with certainty what works and what doesn’t and it is the only way to continuously improve what you do”.

 

In his spare time, he likes to skydive, ski, snowboard and mountain bike, and he is now learning how to kitesurf and eFoil.
