The Galileus Cerclage Sinus® technique is a groundbreaking solution for patients with severe posterior atrophies of the upper jaw who have limited bone for dental implants. This technique focuses on utilizing the basal bones, pterygoid implants, and transverse nasal dental implants to provide exceptional implant stability, complete masticatory functionality, and impeccable aesthetics.
The key to the Galileus Cerclage Sinus® technique lies in placing implants in the posterior cortical basal bones of the upper jaw, specifically in the palatine and pterygoid bones. These bones are known for their exceptional hardness and resistance, providing a secure anchor for the implants. By targeting these specific areas, the technique ensures optimal stability and support for the posterior areas of the jaw.
The technique utilizes long 19/21 millimeter pterygoid implants to reach the cortical pterygoid laminae. These implants are specially designed to provide optimal stability and support for the posterior areas of the jaw. During the procedure, implants are inserted with a Newton force of 100 in the 18/28 section of the upper jaw. This level of force guarantees both stability and safety, ensuring successful implant integration.
In addition to pterygoid implants, transverse nasal dental implants with a length of 18/19 millimeters are strategically inserted in the 15/25 sections of the jaw. This placement technique forms a V shape that encircles the maxillary sinus, providing protection and support. The V-shaped encircling positioning strategy involves placing two transverse nasal dental implants opposite each other to form a V shape that encircles the maxillary sinus. This technique creates two pillars of resistance, which support fixed prosthetics in the posterior areas of the jaw, allowing for effective chewing.
The Galileus Cerclage Sinus® technique concludes with the frontal insertion of 2-4 transverse nasal implants in the residual bone zones of the frontal premaxilla. This step ensures optimal stability and support for the entire upper jaw.
To complement the technique, a fixed prosthesis with 14 teeth is designed specifically for the Galileus Cerclage Sinus® technique. This prosthetic solution offers patients a natural-looking smile and optimal masticatory functionality. The fixed prosthesis evenly distributes masticatory forces across the entire perimeter of the upper jaw, ensuring complete 360-degree masticatory support.
One of the key advantages of the Galileus Cerclage Sinus® technique is the impeccable aesthetics it offers. The fixed prosthesis does not require the use of false gums, providing patients with exceptional comfort and a natural-looking appearance. Patients can regain their confidence and enjoy the benefits of a fully functional and beautiful smile.
In conclusion, the Galileus Cerclage Sinus® technique is a revolutionary solution for patients with severe posterior atrophies of the upper jaw. By utilizing basal bones, pterygoid implants, and transverse nasal dental implants, this technique offers exceptional implant stability, complete masticatory functionality, and impeccable aesthetics. Patients can regain their confidence and enjoy the benefits of a fully functional and beautiful smile.
