About CIl Live Patient Externships
This program has allowed hundreds of patients from all over the United States to receive the dental care they need but could not otherwise afford. Patient testimonials describe the experience as life-changing, allowing them to eat foods they had given up enjoying and to rediscover the smiles they thought they had lost forever. Some even described the experience as fun and like a “vacation” due to the beautiful location.
Potential patients are screened before being accepted into the program to make sure they are good candidates for dental implant treatment, and individualized plans are made according to the patient’s particular situation. Patients are carefully informed of all the steps and any risks that might be involved. Patients arrive in San Diego and are shuttled to the facilities in Mexico, which are located on the beach in a gated community, offering gorgeous views and a relaxing setting.
Dr Louie Al-Faraje and the other members of the CII faculty are overjoyed to be able to offer this win-win scenario in which they have been able to provide not only essential training to practicing dentists but also millions of dollars’ worth of free dental implants. Perhaps more importantly, they have been able to give renewed confidence, self-esteem, and quality of life to people in a range of situations, from the elderly to veterans to people young and old who simply cannot afford the cost of replacing their failing teeth with implants.

"I took Dr. Al-Faraje's bone grafting course recently. It was great to listen to a mentor with such a fresh perspective in teaching and addressing the audience. He openly shared his successes and his complications, which is the only way to truly learn from an instructor. He shared willingly tips and techniques to simplify the procedure of bone grafting and I felt truly rewarded for attending his course. This course has lots to offer to both experienced and novice surgeons."
