2-Day Interactive Cadaver Course Precision and Stability with Pterygoid Implants Featuring the POWER™ Protocol This advanced two-day educational program provides clinicians with a comprehensive understanding of the biomechanical, surgical, and prosthetic principles essential for predictable full-arch rehabilitation of the maxilla. Participants will explore the clinical rationale and technical execution of pterygoid-based anchorage as a means to enhance posterior support, expand the anterior–posterior (A–P) spread, and improve long-term prosthetic stability in complex maxillary cases. Through a combination of didactic sessions, digital workflow demonstrations, and hands-on cadaveric training, attendees will gain the knowledge and confidence to incorporate pterygoid implants into their full-arch treatment protocols — minimizing grafting procedures while maximizing functional and esthetic outcomes. The course will also integrate digital and analog conversion techniques, photogrammetry-based workflows, and step-by-step guidance on immediate and definitive restoration approaches. ✅ Understand the anatomical and biomechanical principles underlying pterygoid implant placement and their role in achieving optimal posterior anchorage. ✅ Evaluate and plan full-arch maxillary cases with a focus on achieving ideal A–P spread to improve load distribution and minimize cantilever forces. ✅ Identify appropriate indications and contraindications for pterygoid implants based on bone density, sinus anatomy, and prosthetic requirements. ✅ Perform guided and freehand placement of pterygoid and anterior implants on cadaver specimens with attention to safety, angulation, and cortical engagement. ✅ Execute immediate conversion protocols using both conventional and digital workflows, including photogrammetry and 3D printing. ✅ Recognize and manage potential complications associated with posterior anchorage and develop maintenance strategies for long-term prosthetic success. ✅ Integrate the POWER™ protocol into clinical practice as a predictable, graftless solution for full-arch rehabilitation in atrophic maxillae. You’ll receive an official Noris Medical certificate and/or professional materials after completing the course. Subscribe to our newsletters and blogs
