EXPERT ZYGOMATIC & PTERYGOID COURSE APPLICATION

Operation Re-dentulate Central America Association - L3 Application

We are pleased to introduce you to O.R.C.A.A., Operation Re-dentulate Central America Association, which will take place at the University of Francisco Marroquin in Guatemala City

We and UFM are excited to welcome those who will be honored to join us on our next mission to learn, inspire, train and enjoy each other’s company. We look forward to learning about each of those who are interested in joining us and to forming a lasting relationship.

In addition to the education opportunities, and connecting with doctors throughout the USA, Latin America and the World, our collective goal is to “re-dentulate” approximately 24 patients (48 potential arches) in the 5 days operating, biannually to start. As interest grows, more trips will be made.

All patients will have proper post operative care as well as temporary and final zirconia restorations via digital workflows.

  1. Level III Operating Trainees (L3):
    1. Each L3 Trainee will be performing full arch surgery or first-assisting all day for 4 days. A L3 Trainee will rotate with their counterpart L3 Trainee with each patient. This allows for each Trainee to learn, see, do and then eventually teach. Our goal is for each doctor to take their skills back to their home countries and help reduce their edentulous populations as a whole.
    2. L3 Trainees should expect to have two patients per day for 4 days. Each day, you will assist and operate with each patient. 
    3. Complexity of cases may vary. 
    4. Techniques used will be in the patients’ best interest
    5. Techniques covered can include:
      1. Zygomatic Implants
      2. Pterygoid Implants
      3. Palatal Approach
      4. Trans-Sinus Implants
      5. Trans-Nasal (Z-Point) Implants
      6. M-configuration
    6. Student to Instructor ratio: 1 to 1
