Some dental practices pursue continuing education to maintain their license. At Ultima Dental Wellness in Calgary, AB, the commitment to learning goes significantly further than that. Our team includes a Kois Center graduate and mentor, one of the most rigorous and respected postgraduate training programs in dentistry, and that investment in advanced education shapes the quality and depth of care every patient receives at this practice.
What The Kois Center Represents
The Kois Center is a postgraduate dental education institution founded by Dr. John Kois in Seattle, Washington, widely regarded as one of the most demanding and evidence-based continuing education programs available to dentists anywhere in the world. Kois Center graduates complete hundreds of hours of advanced clinical training across all disciplines of dentistry, with a particular emphasis on comprehensive diagnosis, occlusal science, restorative planning, and the biological principles that underpin predictable, lasting treatment outcomes. Achieving graduation from the Kois Center is a significant clinical accomplishment. Serving as a mentor within that program reflects a level of mastery that goes further still.
Diagnosis That Goes Deeper
The Kois philosophy centers on a structured, evidence-based approach to diagnosis that evaluates the full complexity of a patient’s oral health before any treatment is recommended. At Ultima Dental Wellness, that diagnostic framework means patients receive a thorough evaluation of their bite, their bone and tissue health, their occlusal stability, and the interrelationship between all elements of their oral system before a single treatment decision is made. This level of diagnostic thoroughness is what separates treatment that addresses root causes from treatment that manages symptoms, and it is what produces outcomes that are more predictable, more comfortable, and more lasting.
Education As A Commitment To Patients
The team at Ultima Dental Wellness is always investing in education and technologies to provide better and more comfortable outcomes for patients. That investment is not passive. It is an active, ongoing pursuit of the best available evidence, the most refined clinical techniques, and the technologies that allow those techniques to be executed with greater precision and less patient discomfort. Dentistry evolves continuously, and staying at the leading edge of that evolution is what responsible care requires. Every course attended, every mentorship session completed, and every new technology integrated into the practice translates directly into a better experience and a better outcome for the patients who trust Ultima Dental Wellness with their health.
Advanced Technology In Support Of Advanced Training
Kois-level diagnostic thinking is most powerful when it is supported by the tools needed to see the full clinical picture. At Ultima Dental Wellness, CBCT 3D imaging, digital impression scanning, in-house 3D printing, and EMS Guided Biofilm Therapy all work in concert with the advanced diagnostic framework our team has invested in developing. Technology here is not acquired for its own sake. It is selected because it supports more accurate diagnosis, more conservative treatment planning, and more predictable outcomes for every patient.
What This Means For You
Patients at Ultima Dental Wellness benefit from a standard of care that reflects years of advanced education, a structured diagnostic approach, and a genuine commitment to outcomes that hold up over the long term. Whether the need is a routine preventive visit, a complex restorative case, implant planning, or comprehensive smile rehabilitation, the foundational thinking behind every treatment plan at this practice is grounded in evidence, refined through advanced training, and delivered with the same warmth and integrity that has defined Ultima Dental Wellness for over thirty years.
