Zygomatic Implant

A zygomatic implant is a type of dental implant used for patients with significant bone loss in the upper jaw, where traditional implants may not be viable. Instead of anchoring into the jawbone, zygomatic implants are placed in the cheekbone (zygoma), which has denser bone structure, allowing a secure hold for the implants.

Benefits of Zygomatic Implants

  • Alternative to Bone Grafting: Since these implants anchor into the cheekbone, there is no need for extensive bone grafting.
  • Immediate Solution for Severe Bone Loss: Ideal for patients with severe jawbone resorption.
  • Stable and Durable: They provide strong support for dental prosthetics, ensuring long-term stability.
  • Zygomatic implants are primarily recommended for individuals with extensive upper jaw bone loss who are looking for a reliable solution to tooth loss."
