He is an honorary member of the South African Society of Periodontology, was the program chair of the EAO 2000 scientific congress, as well an award recipient from the American Academy of Periodontology, the California Society of Periodontists, and the German Implant Society (DGI).
Dr. Jovanovic’s clinical research emphasizes esthetic management in dental implant therapy and bone and soft tissue reconstruction techniques. His applied research focuses on bone regeneration with different bone graft materials, growth factors and barrier membranes as well as the biology of soft tissues around teeth and implants.
He lectures extensively worldwide and has published over 65 articles and book chapters, and one textbook titled Color Atlas of Implantology (Thieme Publ.) which is translated in 8 languages. He is the Editor-in-Chief of the gIDE academic curriculum, is on several editorial boards for scientific journals and presents and teaches his implant protocols globally.

TESTIMONIALS
I had felt that there was a piece of my practice that was missing… That was hard tissue and sinus augmentation. After the course, I feel that this piece of the puzzle has been completed.
Dr. Thomas W. Mabry, Periodontist
The gIDE 4-day Bone and Soft tissue grafting course was an excellent program which I would recommend to anyone with an interest in this area, regardless of previous experience. The learning outcomes are well-illustrated with excellent hands-on sessions that can allow you to fine tune various techniques, or perhaps to try different instruments and materials in a controlled setting.
Ian Bills, General Dentist
This was the most organized, comprehensive, high quality bone grafting course I have taken to date. Good Job!
Dr. Steven Spitz, General Dentist
I had a wonderful experience at your grafting course in March and it was definitely worth coming all the way from Japan. It was the best educational program I have ever taken. Thank you again for being such a great teacher!
