Pterygoid & Zygomatic Implant Course

• Anatomic mastery: Understand the maxillary sinus, zygomatic bone, and surrounding structures critical for precise pterygoid and zygomatic implant placement.
  
  
• Patient selection criteria: Identify ideal candidates for full-arch rehabilitation requiring advanced implant solutions.
  
  
• CBCT interpretation: Analyze scans to plan optimal surgical approaches for challenging maxillary cases.
  
  
• Surgical protocols: Execute step-by-step drilling and placement techniques to achieve maximum primary stability.
  
  
• Advanced surgical techniques: Apply best practices for flap design, osteotomy preparation, and implant insertion in compromised bone situations.
  
  
• Prosthetic integration: Align surgical planning with restorative goals for predictable and functional outcomes.
  
  
• Intraoperative problem-solving: Manage challenges such as limited access, sinus perforation, and variations in bone quality.
  
  
• Post-operative care: Implement protocols to reduce complications and support long-term osseointegration.
  
  
• Team collaboration: Streamline communication and workflows between surgical and restorative teams during complex cases.
  
  
• Case review & refinement: Evaluate results to continuously enhance surgical technique and clinical decision-making.
