Advanced Dental Implant Course on Remote Anchorage Solutions
Course Objectives and Overview
- Build a comprehensive understanding of surgical techniques for zygomatic and pterygoid implants, including intra-sinus and extra-sinus approaches, with a focus on benefits and limitations as part of remote anchorage solutions for severe maxillary atrophy.
- Gain both scientific and clinical insights into applying ZAGA zygomatic implant treatments across diverse anatomical situations.
- Observe, analyze, and discuss a live surgical procedure led by Dr. Jay Neugarten.
- Practice advanced zygomatic and pterygoid implantology techniques through implant placement on 3D dental models derived from real patient cases.
- Simulate real surgical conditions by practicing implant placement on cryopreserved human heads to refine skills in remote anchorage techniques.
- Advance your ability to identify, prevent, and manage complications related to zygomatic and pterygoid implants within the context of remote anchorage solutions for severe maxillary atrophy.
- Master surgical planning and treatment strategies for the precise placement of zygomatic and pterygoid implants.
- Three-month access to the full course content: available once the course is completed.
Clinical Case Example
Documented case of Ana, a patient presenting with severe bone loss and failed implants. She was treated by our faculty member, Dr. Jay Neugarten, during the ZAGA Course as part of a live surgical demonstration for course participants. Treatment involved quad zygomatic implants and one pterygoid implant to improve stability. Using the ZAGA Approach, we were able to successfully rehabilitate the case despite the previous implant failures and deliver an immediate prosthesis on the same day as surgery. This case represents part of the clinical education and knowledge participants gain during the ZAGA course.
