The pterygoid region provides an alternative anchoring point for implants in cases of highly resorbed maxillary ridges with insufficient bone volume. Pterygoid implants provide increased stability and support while eliminating the need for bone grafting, simplifying the overall treatment process.

Pterygoid implants are most often placed using immediate loading protocols. In this program, doctors will learn pterygomaxillary anatomy, CT scan evaluation, placement overview (patient positioning, insertion and angulation, implant placement tools, suturing, and postoperative care), as well as complications and their solutions.
