The history of the Sechenov Institute of Dentistry begins in 2001 when Professor Nikolai Bazhanov, a well-known maxillofacial surgeon and a member of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences initiated the opening of the Dental School at the Sechenov Academy. But as early as the 19th century our Department of Medicine had a Dental School founded by a talented surgeon, Professor Nikolai Znamensky, who made and put the world's first dental implant.
