Dr Costa Nicolopoulos is headed to London from South Africa to present at the ADI Masterclass: Full Arch. About his session, titled “The Power of Pterygoids” and supported by Southern Implants, he says:

“Some of the most important aspects to ensure success with pterygoid implants are a good understanding of the pterygoid anatomy; good case selection; and an understanding of the surgical techniques required to place these implants predictably.

“During my session, I hope to show delegates that pterygoid implants provide an excellent solution for achieving good primary stability in dense bone, which also avoids sinus grafting and allows for immediate loading.

“Pterygoid implants are the most underevaluated, underused, and underrated solutions – they offer a powerful solution for managing the challenging posterior maxilla. In my practice, they have become a game changer.

“The ADI Masterclass will expose clinicians to accelerated treatment protocols that facilitate immediate function in full-arch treatment and help to increase patient acceptance. Having spoken at a previous event, it was inspiring to be part of the great enthusiasm shown by participants.”
