At Apple Dentistry, the best dental clinic in Hyderabad, we offer state-of-the-art implant solutions for patients with severe bone loss in the upper jaw, commonly referred to as an atrophic maxilla. Conventional implants typically necessitate grafting procedures that can be both invasive and time-consuming. Our Tubero-Pterygoid Implants leverage the nearby dense maxillary and pterygoid bone to obviate the need for grafting, delivering secure and rapid stabilisation in a single surgical step.
Our experienced surgical team, led by Dr Bhanumurthy, the most experienced dentist, incorporates advanced 3D imaging along with computer-guided implantation, allowing us to achieve the accuracy and predictability essential for long-term success—even in individuals who have been advised against traditional implants.
Tubero-Pterygoid Implants are extended, angulated fixtures that engage the posterior maxilla, penetrating two robust bony zones: the maxillary tuberosity, which is the rounded surface that lies just posterior to the terminal molar, and the pterygoid plate, a thick bone that provides stable backing adjacent to the maxillary sinus cavity.
By harnessing the dense bone at the tubero-pterygoid region, we eliminate the need for sinus lifts and bone grafting—an ideal solution for patients facing significant jaw atrophy.
Why consider tubero-pterygoid implants at Apple Dentistry? In contrast to standard practices, we combine surgical expertise with advanced imaging for seamless and predictable outcomes.
No grafting required—patients enjoy reduced surgery load and swifter healing.
Long-term fixture survival exceeds 95% across peer-reviewed studies.
Select patients leave with a provisional bridge on the same day.
Smaller incisions mean less trauma and lower pain compared to grafting.
