This year, a total of 146 dental college and graduate students were selected as scholarship recipients, including 70 who attended the event. Osstem Implant, which started its dental college scholarship program in 2003 and has supported about 150 students annually, has supported over 1,100 dental students over 21 years. Starting this year, the scope of the program has been expanded beyond dentistry to related departments. Accordingly, this year, a total of 580 students benefited, including 343 students from 81 dental hygiene departments and 91 students from 19 dental technology departments nationwide.

Han Sang-min, a student at Seoul National University Graduate School of Dentistry who attended the award ceremony, said, “As I became a second-year student, practical classes increased, and thanks to the Osstem Implant scholarship, I was able to reduce the burden of purchasing practice materials and repeatedly practice the same procedures.” He added, “I am grateful to Osstem Implant for not only focusing on the company’s growth but also supporting the nurturing of future talents.”

Additionally, Osstem Implant, together with the Korean Women Dentists Association, established the ‘Future Women Talent Award’ to encourage and honor new beginnings for female dental graduates. Beyond the scholarship program, the company is making various efforts to advance dentistry and nurture talent. It consistently donates development funds to dental colleges and graduate schools, provides dental equipment, and offers tangible and intangible support for dental academic events.

Since relocating its headquarters to the Magok Research & Development (R&D) Complex in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, in 2020, Osstem Implant has opened its building, which includes a 365-seat auditorium and 12 seminar rooms, to dental-related academic societies and organizations. Since then, various seminars and academic events have been held at the Osstem Implant headquarters, establishing Magok as a hub for dental education events.
