Austin, TX (PRWEB)
June 19, 2020
Dr. Dan Holtzclaw—a board-certified specialist in dental implants in Austin, TX—will publish a first-of-its-kind textbook on pterygoid implants later this summer. Dr. Holtzclaw has placed more than 25,000 implants to date, has published in excess of 60 articles in peer-reviewed dental journals, and has lectured on same-day, zygomatic, and pterygoid implants at conferences worldwide. Named among the World’s Top 100 Doctors by Global Summits Institute, he is one of a limited number of implant surgeons who perform pterygoid implant procedures, which help patients with severe bone loss qualify for dental implants.
The upcoming hardcover textbook will feature over 200 full-color pages devoted solely to pterygoid dental implants used in full-arch, immediate load protocols. It will detail the history of pterygoid implants, anatomy pertinent to the placement of pterygoid implants, indications and contraindications for pterygoid implants, surgical technique, how to deal with complications, prosthetic considerations for pterygoid implants, and many sample cases.
Pterygoid implants are placed in the upper jaw of patients who have lost a significant amount of jawbone and cannot support dental implants. They are much longer than standard implants, extending from the tooth root area to the pterygoid processes of the sphenoid bone. Dr. Holtzclaw is a Diplomate of both the International Congress of Oral Implantologists and the American Board of Periodontology, for which he is subject to recertification every six years. With his extensive credentials and qualifications, he is able to perform this complex procedure, allowing him to help many patients who are turned down for implants at other practices.
Dr. Holtzclaw’s practice, Austin Dental Implant Center, takes a comprehensive and collaborative approach to dental implant treatment. Periodontists, oral surgeons and even lab technicians all work at the same state-of-the-art practice, offering everything patients need. Beyond specialized techniques like pterygoid and zygomatic dental implant surgery, they also use on-site technology including their Zirkonzahn™ laboratory equipment, cone beam CT scanner, and hospital-grade anesthesia monitors to offer a truly unique advantage.
