Remote Anchorage Implants
Innovative trans-sinus, trans-nasal, and pterygoid implant solutions for patients with insufficient bone mass or complex anatomical challenges.
Advanced Solutions for Complex Cases
Remote anchorage implants represent the cutting edge of implant dentistry, offering hope to patients who have been told they don't have enough bone for traditional implants or would require extensive grafting procedures.
At HOPE Dental Implant Center, we specialize in these advanced techniques that utilize alternative anatomical structures for secure implant placement.
Trans-Sinus Implants
These specialized implants pass through the sinus cavity to engage with the dense bone of the zygomatic arch or nasal floor, bypassing areas with insufficient bone.
- ✓Avoids sinus lift procedures
- ✓Ideal for upper posterior regions
- ✓Shorter treatment timeline
Trans-Nasal Implants
These innovative implants utilize the dense bone of the nasal floor and piriform rim to provide stable anchorage in the anterior maxilla.
- ✓Excellent for front tooth replacements
- ✓Utilizes naturally dense bone structure
- ✓Predictable, long-term results
Pterygoid Implants
Pterygoid implants anchor in the pterygoid process and plates of the sphenoid bone, providing posterior support for full-arch restorations.
- ✓Eliminates need for sinus grafting
- ✓Provides distal support for full arches
- ✓Engages dense cortical bone
Benefits of Remote Anchorage Implants
No Bone Grafting Required
Eliminate the need for extensive bone augmentation procedures, reducing treatment time by 6-9 months.
Immediate Function
In many cases, provisional teeth can be attached the same day as surgery, allowing you to leave with a functional smile.
High Success Rate
Remote anchorage implants have proven success rates of over 95%, even in challenging cases where traditional implants aren't viable.

Schedule Your ConsultationFrequently Asked Questions
Are remote anchorage implants safe?
Yes, these procedures have been performed successfully for many years with excellent safety profiles. They require special training and expertise, which is why they're only offered by specialists like those at HOPE Dental Implant Center.
How long is the recovery time?
Most patients experience swelling and mild discomfort for 5-7 days. You can typically return to normal activities within a week, though complete healing and osseointegration takes 3-6 months.
Will I need to be without teeth during treatment?
No. In most cases, we can provide temporary teeth the same day as your implant placement. These provisional restorations allow you to eat, speak, and smile while your permanent teeth are being fabricated.
Are these procedures more expensive than traditional implants?
Remote anchorage implants typically cost more than conventional implants due to their technical complexity and specialized components. However, when compared to the cost of extensive bone grafting plus traditional implants, they can be comparable or even more cost-effective.
