Zygomatic Implants

Zygomatic implants are specialized dental implants designed for patients who lack sufficient bone in the upper jaw (maxilla) to support traditional dental implants. Unlike conventional implants, which anchor directly into the jawbone, zygomatic implants anchor into the dense zygomatic bone (cheekbone), providing a secure foundation for full-arch dental restorations.

This advanced implant solution is particularly beneficial for individuals who have experienced significant bone loss due to prolonged tooth loss, periodontal disease, or trauma, and who may have been previously told they were not candidates for dental implants without undergoing extensive bone grafting procedures.

Key benefits of zygomatic implants include:

1. Immediate Functionality: Typically allows for same-day placement and immediate loading of fixed dental prosthetics.
2. Reduced Treatment Time: Eliminates or significantly reduces the need for bone grafting, shortening the overall treatment timeline.
3. High Success Rate: Demonstrates long-term reliability and stability.
4. Enhanced Quality of Life: Rapid restoration of oral function, comfort, and aesthetics.

The procedure involves precise surgical planning using advanced imaging techniques such as 3D Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). During surgery, implants are carefully anchored into the zygomatic bones, and a full arch prosthesis is secured, often on the same day.

Zygomatic implants are an ideal solution for patients seeking a durable, immediate, and minimally invasive approach to full-arch dental restoration, significantly improving oral function, confidence, and overall quality of life.
