Dr Lourens also completed his post-grad diploma in Implantology from the University of Western Cape. In 2005 Johannes and his wife, Marilize, were both given the opportunity to work in the Netherlands. This enabled them to attend several international symposiums on modern dentistry while also working in their private practice in the beautiful student town of Groningen.
