Dr. Shima Naghavi who is the Director of International Affairs of Iranian Medical Council, Head of IRIMC Department of International Education & Research and Board Member of IRIMC Commission for Credential Verification hailed it as a breakthrough in the history of Iranian dentistry. She said: “Following Prof. Brånemark's discovery which significantly revolutionized the realm of dentistry, dental professionals began their research and studies for expanding the use of dental implants. 20 years after the major breakthrough made by Brånemark in the field of dentistry, International Congress of Oral Implantology (ICOI) was founded for providing implant education to the entire dental team. Renowned Iranian dental professionals did their best to promote implant education in our homeland.”

She added: “Today Iranian people like 10 million people around the globe can benefit from this therapeutic technology.

 Enhancing implant education nationwide by offering certified and comprehensive academic implant education presented by renowned national as well as international faculty was the ideal for Iranian dental community that was achieved at the summer of 2014 when Iranian Center of Oral Implantology became ICOI Component Society in Iran. I strongly believe that with making this big stride, the Iranian dental community benefits more centralized actions in providing educational facilities and credentialing programs in the field of implant dentistry.”

Dr. Naghavi appreciated the consistent efforts of IRAN COI Congress’s Organizing Committee and said:” We highly appreciate and value the attendance of prominent national as well as international professors at the first IRAN COI Congress whose participation will enhance the efficacy & potency of this congress.All dental team members are welcomed in the coming congress that features a world-class international faculty.”
