Treatment Summaries
What Is a Zygomatic Implant?
A zygomatic implant is a specialized, extra-long dental implant that is anchored into the cheekbone (zygoma) rather than the upper jawbone. It is used for patients who have severe bone loss in the upper jaw and are not suitable for conventional implants.
Who Is a Candidate for Zygomatic Implants?
-
Patients with significant upper jaw bone resorption
-
Individuals who are completely edentulous (no upper teeth)
-
Those who want to avoid bone grafting or sinus lift surgeries
-
Patients who have failed previous implant treatments
-
Candidates for immediate-load full arch prosthetics (e.g., All-on-4, All-on-6)
How Is a Zygomatic Implant Placed?
-
A detailed 3D scan (CBCT) is taken to assess the zygomatic bone
-
Surgery is performed under general anesthesia or IV sedation
-
Implants are placed into the zygoma bone at a specific angle
-
Additional conventional implants may be placed if needed
-
A temporary fixed prosthesis may be delivered the same day
What Are the Advantages of Zygomatic Implants?
-
No need for bone grafting or sinus lifting
