Dr Johann Lochner grew up near the southern most point of Africa and spent his childhood years in Klipdale and Bredasdorp. He graduated as a dentist from the University of Stellenbosch in 1996. Periodontology was always a field of keen interest and he was awarded with the first prize in Oral Medicine, Periodontology and Crown and Bridgework in his final year.
After graduation Dr Lochner practised and studied in the United Kingdom. This is where he obtained Membership of the Faculty of General Dental Practitioners from the Royal College of Surgeons of England (RCS). After further studies at the University of Newcastle-Upon-Tyne as a Senior House Officer he was admitted as Member of the Fellowship of Dental Surgeons of the RCS of England. He has been actively involved in the field of Oral Implantology since 2001 and spent a few years in London in private practice.
