Full Spectrum Zygomatic and Pterygoid Implant Therapy Demystified (Aug 20 - 23, 2025)

Full Spectrum Zygomatic and Pterygoid Implant Therapy Demystified is organized by Pikos Institute and will be held from Aug 20 - 23, 2025 at Pikos Institute Inc, New Port Richey, Trinity, Florida, United States of America.

Description:
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.  It will include single zygomatic use, hybrid zygoma, quad zygoma and pterygoid case types.

A prophylactic evidence-based approach to zygomatic implant placement will be featured. Conservative osteotomy preparation with a focus on prosthetically guided implant placement, along with both soft and hard tissue considerations will be discussed.

Ample time will be spent on foundational anatomy, biology, immediate load concepts, diagnosis and treatment planning, along with step-by-step brain guided and digital guided surgical protocols for zygomatic and pterygoid implant installation including the protocol for placement of pterygoid implants. Complications will also be covered in detail.
