Dr. Jitender K Aurora also specialises in rehabilitation of edentulous jaws by placing Zygomatic and Pterygoid Implants. This is a field of great interest to him and he looks forward to utilize his expertise in this field by carrying out research in this field. The main characteristic of these implants is that they are placed in two bones that are never reabsorbed, the zygomatic, in the case of zygomatic implants and the pterygoid, in the case of pterygoid implants. So they can be used even in the most severe atrophies of the maxillary bone. In addition, zygomatic and petrigoid implants are also special for their length, much longer than conventional implants. Thus, zygomatics have a length of 30 to 55 mm and pterygoids of 15 to 20 mm, a length designed to ensure a correct anchorage in the bone.
