🦷 “Long-Term Success of Short Implants” at Edentulism Conference 2025 with Prof. Waldemar Polido
After several sessions focused on long implants and remote anchorage, Prof. Polido (ZAGA Partner Indianapolis) challenged the audience to rethink the role of short implants in modern rehabilitation.
He highlighted their indication as an alternative to more invasive grafting procedures, especially in posterior sites, and emphasised the importance of primary stability, surface design, and prosthetic planning in achieving predictable long-term outcomes.
“Short implants may offer greater simplicity and safety compared with bone augmentation procedures.” - Prof. Waldemar Polido at Edentulism 2025 Conference.
A reminder that treatment planning is not about choosing the most complex solution, but the most appropriate one for the patient.
🦷 “Pterygoid Implants in the Edentulous Patient” at Edentulism Conference 2025 with Dr. Rudi Mukherjee 🇬🇧
Drawing from years of full-arch rehabilitation in high-demand settings, he explained how biomechanics, efficiency, and standardised workflows must go hand in hand. He emphasised that proper CBCT analysis and anatomical understanding are far more important than fixed angulation rules, because every pterygoid site is different. Technique, positioning, and respecting surgical landmarks are what ultimately define predictability.
One line that captured the philosophy perfectly was “Now, a good day is when you thought you needed to do a Zygoma and you managed to avoid it.” - Edentulism Conference 2025, Dr. Rudi Mukherjee
A lecture that balanced clinical detail with what truly defines success in edentulous care: function, longevity, and quality of life.
🎤 Dr. Jay Neugarten at Edentulism Conference 2025
On June 7, the final day of the Edentulism Conference 2025, Dr. Jay Neugarten (ZAGA Center New York) served as moderator, guiding the audience through a full day focused on decision-making, risk management, and long-term outcomes in complex maxillary rehabilitation.
With a clear, steady moderation style, Dr. Neugarten connected diverse clinical perspectives, encouraged meaningful discussion, and helped translate advanced concepts into practical insights for daily practice.
A strong and thoughtful close to an outstanding scientific program 👏
From their first contact with zygomatic implants decades ago to refining techniques in complex maxillary cases, they shared one clear message at Edentulism Conference 2025: “We need to address the smile line due to two factors: statics and prosthetics. And clinical examination is key.” 💡
Their session walked through real-world scenarios where the transition zone can make or break the outcome, and why the platform position and soft-tissue management must be planned around the patient’s smile dynamics, not just the CT.
Because as they showed, you can have a “perfect” surgery… and still end up with the wrong aesthetic result if the transition is visible.
🎤 Dr. Franck Renouard at Edentulism Conference 2025
In his lecture “Threats and Errors Management in Edentulous Maxillary Surgery: The Example of Zygomatic Implants”, Dr. Franck Renouard brought a rare and essential perspective to implant dentistry: how human factors, cognitive load, and routine behavior directly influence clinical safety in complex maxillary surgery.
Using real clinical scenarios, he explained why most complications occur not in complex cases, but during routine procedures, and emphasized the critical role of checklists, situational awareness, and non-technical skills in reducing risk.
💬 “Technical skills are what you learn. Non-technical skills are what decide the outcome in real life.” - Franck Renouard at Edentulism Conference 2025
🎤 Dr. Guy McLellan at Edentulism Conference 2025
In his lecture “Aiming for Success with Zygomatic and Pterygoid Implant Conservative Techniques”, Dr. Guy McLellan, ZAGA Center Cardiff, focused on anatomy-driven decision-making, conservative osteotomies, and the importance of preserving host bone and soft tissues to reduce complications and improve long-term outcomes.
His approach highlighted that success with zygomatic and pterygoid implants starts long before surgery, with careful planning, precise execution, and prevention as a core principle.
💬 “The best way of treating complications is avoidance. In other words, prevention.” - Guy McLellan at Edentulism Conference 2025
🎤 Dr. Nick Egbert at Edentulism Conference 2025
In his lecture “Managing Complications in Full-Arch Implant Dentistry”, Nick Egbert shared a candid and experience-based perspective on complications in implant dentistry, focusing on real clinical scenarios and long-term responsibility toward patients.
Rather than presenting ideal cases, his talk highlighted the importance of honesty, self-reflection, and compassion, both with patients and with ourselves as clinicians.
“The goal today is to remind everyone that this can happen to all of us. When it does, be kind to yourself, remain honest with your patients, and address complications as they arise.” - Dr. Nick Egbert at Edentulism Conference 2025
✨ Wishing you happy holidays and a wonderful 2026 ✨
As the end of this year approaches, we want to thank you, our global ZAGA community, for being part of this journey. Your trust, dedication, and passion for exploring and learning continue to inspire us.
Looking ahead, 2026 invites us to keep moving forward together. Through daily clinical practice, shared knowledge, continuous learning, and collaboration, ZAGA continues to grow as a space where professionals connect around a common purpose: advancing science and refining our skills to provide the best possible care for the patients who rely on us.
📅 Please note that ZAGA Centers will be on holiday break from December 24, 2025, to January 6, 2026. We’ll be back soon, refreshed and ready to continue growing together.

Edentulism Conference
🦷 “Zygoma Implant Therapy: Setting the Standard for Atrophic Maxilla?” at ‪@edentulism_conference‬ 2025 with Dr. Rubén Davó.
Dr. Rubén Davó took the audience through the evolution of zygomatic implant therapy, from the early controversial years to today’s reality of long-term data, immediate function protocols, and increasingly refined surgical planning.
He explored the big clinical question behind the lecture: in cases of severe maxillary atrophy, could quad zygoma move from being an alternative to becoming the reference benchmark, especially when time to function and patient outcomes are prioritised?
One statement captured the patient-centred impact of immediate function: “We don't improve the quality of life, we normalise the quality of life.” - Dr. Rubén Davó at Edentulism Conference 2025.
A powerful reminder that for edentulous patients, predictable function and restored confidence are not optional; they are the goal.
