If you have been told that there is less bone in your upper jaw for dental implants, do not worry. The best solution for cases with severe bone resorption in upper jaw is pterygoid implant. Pterygoid implants are replacing zygomatic implants as the best solution for patients requiring dental implants for upper jaw. Such patients were going for sinus lift or bone grafts as per old techniques. In a single procedure we place pterygoid implant and place the permanent crown in 3 days. As we use single piece implants the procedure is flapless and done under local anaesthesia.

    



Tuberopterygoid Implants

Screw based implants used
Screw loosening
No screw loosening and no crestal bone loss
Screw loosening is a problem
Cantilevers
No cantilevers placed
Molars if given are placed as cantilevers, which decrease the life of the bridge and cause screw loosening on the implant.
Criteria
No contraindications
Symptom free and pathologically free sinus
Relative risk of failure
Since sinus is not involved, no risk of sinusitis

  2. Zygomatic implants have been documented as a an alternative for the rehabilitation of the atrophic posterior maxilla with both the classical two stage and immediate loading protocols. Zygomatic implants avoid grafting and sinus lift procedures and therefore contribute to a shorter and more comfortable treatment.

  3. The dental clinic can be accessible via public transport like bus and mini bus, auto rickshaw and cabs. The nearest bus stand is the suguna stores bus stand which is located in anna nagar main road, the clinic is just opposite to the dental hospital.
