The best partners to enhance the predictability of zygomatic implant treatments

In this zygomatic implant course, we were delighted with the support of the Straumann Group and Salvin Dental Specialities. Straumann provided material for the hands-on aspects, such as motors and zygomatic implants, as well as supplying the course with perfectly designed tools that helped us during the live surgery.

Every practice is a learning process

Having hands-on experience in placing zygomatic implants and understanding the criteria of each case has proven to be the most beneficial approach. The enthusiasm of the participants during the sessions was conducive to achieving stellar results. And with the direction of Dr. Carlos Aparicio for zygomatic implants, those who have not experienced this before benefited greatly from his instruction. Overall, the course structure made all the difference in learning. To top it all off, on Saturday morning, five lucky participants entered a real surgery to see a live zygomatic surgery. Under the guidance of Dr. Neugarten, the operation was carried out successfully, and those who were present could see, from a first-hand perspective, the development of a zygomatic implant operation.

The birth of new friendships

The many hours we dedicated to understanding ZAGA concepts and zygomatic implants also meant that there were moments in-between that were the beginning of closer bonds, forming a new friendship that will go into the future with confidence in using the ZAGA method. The one hundred percent satisfaction rate for our course was a sure sign of all of these elements coming together successfully.
