The Lazzara fellowship was established as a tribute to the numerous significant contributions made by Dr. Richard J. Lazzara to the field of implant dentistry.
The fellowship is intended to provide educational and clinical expertise that reflects the most current techniques in implant dentistry. It provides a stipend for the fellow, as well as funds to offset the hosting institution’s overhead and administrative costs. It is a 12-month fellowship that takes place at the student’s training institution and may begin upon the completion of the Fellow’s periodontal training program or when the fellow starts the last six months of his/her periodontal program.
