Dr. Costantinos Nicolopoulos, Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon, BDS cum laude, FFD (SA) MFOS
Dr. Costa Nicolopoulos BDS cum laude, FFD (SA) MFOS qualified as a dentist in 1984 receiving his dental degree cum laude from the University of Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa. He received numerous awards including the Gold Medal of the Dental Association of South Africa for the most outstanding graduate. In 1990 he completed his 4 year full time postgraduate Maxillo-Facial & Oral Surgery training at University of Witwatersrand, South Africa and was awarded FFD (SA) MFOS.
Since 1991 he is in full time specialist Maxillo-Facial & Oral Surgery private practice concentrating on immediate loading of dental implants. To date he has placed over 30000 dental implants. He has also presented as a key lecturer at numerous international implant congresses.

ABSTRACT
Εναλλακτικές στρατηγικές στην κατευθυνόμενη οστική αναγέννηση GBR. Αποκατάσταση προχωρημένης ατροφίας άνω γνάθου με ζυγωματικά εμφυτεύματα και site specific implants
What is the ZAGA method
The ZAGA method is an alternative and safe method for the reconstruction of the atrophic maxilla.
The ZAGA i.e. ZYGOMA ANATOMY GUIDED APPROACH is a patient specific therapy concept for the rehabilitation of patients with advanced maxillary bone atrophy.
ZAGA is anatomically and prosthetically driven in order to optimize patient function and prevent long term complications.
This method avoids opening a window into the maxillary sinus i.e. the ZAGA Concept is to stay out of the sinus i.e. less sinus complications.
A patient specific approach is used based on the patient’s anatomy and degree of jaw atrophy. Treatment is prosthetically driven ensuring optimal function (speech + chewing) as well as ease of homecare/cleaning.
Summury
In summary the ZAGA Method:
- Maximizes Zygomatic Implant success.
- Minimizes patient discomfort.
- Maximizes patient immediate function.
Alternative Strategies to Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR). Restoration of advanced maxilla atrophy by means of zygomatic implants and site specific implants
