PTERYGOID IMPLANTS IN ALBANIA | A SOLUTION FOR SEVERE BONE LOSS
At Brera Dent, we offer pterygoid implants for patients with extreme bone resorption in the upper jaw. This advanced technique uses longer implants anchored into the pterygoid bone — allowing for fixed teeth without bone grafting. It’s a minimally invasive, reliable option for full-arch restorations where traditional implants are not possible.
Why Choose Brera Dent for Pterygoid Implants in Albania?
Pterygoid implants offer a safe and effective alternative for patients who have been told they are not candidates for traditional implants due to bone loss. At Brera Dent, we perform this advanced procedure using digital planning and guided surgery, ensuring accuracy, safety, and comfort.
We are one of the few clinics in Albania offering pterygoid implantology, allowing patients to achieve fixed teeth even in the most complex cases, without the long waiting times associated with grafting procedures.
What Are Pterygoid Implants?
Pterygoid implants are extra-long implants placed at an angle into the pterygoid bone — a dense and stable bone located behind the upper jaw. This technique bypasses the need for bone grafting or sinus lift and provides strong anchorage for full-arch restorations.
They are most commonly used in the posterior maxilla when there is severe bone resorption. The implant engages multiple layers of bone for maximum support and is often combined with other implants for a full-mouth solution.
Pterygoid implants make it possible to restore fixed teeth in complex upper jaw cases — restoring both function and appearance without extensive surgery.
Steps of the Pterygoid Implant Procedure
Initial Consultation
We begin with a detailed clinical assessment, including 3D scans, to evaluate the jawbone and determine the best placement for the implant.
Planning & Simulation
Using digital planning software, our specialists map the ideal trajectory and depth of the implant based on your unique anatomy.
Implant Placement
The pterygoid implant is inserted at a specific angle to anchor into the pterygoid bone — often in combination with zygomatic or anterior implants.
Healing Period & Final Prosthesis
Once healing is complete, the permanent prosthesis is attached, ensuring long-term stability and restored oral function.

How Much Do Pterygoid Implants Cost in Albania?
Pterygoid implants are a cost-effective solution for advanced cases, often avoiding the added expense of bone grafting and multiple procedures. At Brera Dent, we offer this advanced technique at prices far more accessible than clinics in Western Europe. The final cost depends on: whether it’s a single pterygoid or part of a full-arch plan, the number of implants used, the type of final prosthetic material (e.g., acrylic, zirconia).
