Introduction: Dental prosthetic rehabilitation based on Osseo integrated implants is a well-established and highly predictable treatment modality. Hence we aimed to systematic literature review to analyze clinical outcomes of tubero-pterygoid / Pterygoid implant for the treatment of patients with atrophic posterior maxillae and to provide clinical recommendations for this dental implant technique. Material and methods: Online data was collected from the search engines of EBSCO, Pubmed, Google Scholar, Scopus to identify literature presenting clinical outcomes of tubero-pterygoid implants in the treatment of patients with atrophic posterior maxillae. The study articles were collected that from Jan 1999 to Feb 2021. Based on the PRISMA guidelines the meta analysis was performed. Results: From 331 only 6 were finalized. All studies were retrospective in nature and were classified with a poor level of evidence. A total of 634 patients received 1.893 tubero- Pterygoid implants, with a mean implant survival rate of 94.87%. The mean prevalence of implant failure was 0.056 with a 95% CI of 0.04 to 0.077. Conclusion: It can be concluded that tubero-pterygoid implants can be successfully used in patients with atrophic posterior maxilla.
