This unique comprehensive lecture discussion, cadaver and hands-on model surgery-based course will cover the use of zygomatic and pterygoid implants for treatment of the severely atrophic maxilla.
This comprehensive training combines didactic sessions with hands-on experience to prepare clinicians for successful zygomatic and pterygoid implant therapy. Emphasizing prosthetically driven, conservative osteotomy preparation and innovative surgical techniques, participants will gain confidence in addressing complex cases. Key topics include detailed craniofacial anatomy, advanced 3D digital treatment planning, brain-guided and digitally guided surgical protocols, modern photogrammetry applications, and efficient restorative workflows.
The program features in-depth coverage of complication prevention and management, including proper patient selection, risk assessment, and handling of intraoperative challenges. Through interactive lectures, case discussions, and simulation exercises, attendees will master the nuances of implant placement angles, depth control, and soft tissue management. Special attention is given to understanding biomechanical principles, osseointegration factors, and prosthetic considerations that influence long-term success.
The course also covers emerging technologies, contemporary biomaterials, and evidence-based protocols for immediate loading scenarios. Participants will develop practical skills in virtual surgical planning, guided implant placement, and prosthetic rehabilitation while learning to optimize treatment outcomes through careful case selection and systematic approaches. Attendees will leave equipped to implement these advanced techniques immediately in their clinical practice.
