My training with zygomatic implants under Dr. Rajat Sachdeva has been truly rewarding. I had come with a lot of apprehensions but going back with nothing but confidence. The workshop organized by Dr. Rajat is at par with international standards with state-of-the art equipment. The entire practice is thriving among the digital revolution and it was a pleasure to have had an opportunity to work with it.
The course helped us get a working knowledge of different surgical techniques, their benefits and their limitations, including intra and extra-sinus approaches. I finally got a clear understanding about the criteria for successful treatment planning and placements. While viewing live surgeries, the ABC’s of establishing an implant trajectory was emphasized on. We went through both guided and non-guided surgeries in detail with the virtual surgical planning, and the use of specific surgical guides for simplifying the surgical procedure. As much as the technology was available at all times, Dr. Rajat emphasized on the importance of using your intelligence and surgical acumen while performing the surgeries and even demonstrated us small refinements that we can make when required in order to obtain maximum results. Quad zygoma concept was also demonstrated where an atrophied maxilla was rehabilitated with 4 zygoma implants. The various prosthetic options of a zygomatic implant case like hybrid fixed denture, full arch PFM, full arch zirconia bridge or an overdenture were explored.
Overall, the entire experience was great and refreshing. I personally liked the entire set up of the workshop and the fact that it was so well-organized and executed superbly. I would love to come back for another course at this institute anyday.
