The DC Pterygoid Implant Solution
In full-arch cases, clinicians aim to maintain a large AP spread without compromising their primary stability. Southern’s Soft Bone implant adds another tool to the clinician’s armamentarium to enable optimal clinical outcomes. Specialised design features increase the users’ ability to attain high primary stability in soft bone sites, decreasing the need for bone grafting and sinus lifting.
