What is Zygomatic Implants?
Zygomatic implants are extra-long implants that anchor in the cheekbone (zygoma) rather than the upper jawbone. This innovative solution enables patients with severe bone atrophy to receive fixed teeth without bone grafting procedures—often with immediate loading for same-day teeth.
What to Know Before You Go
Pro Tip:
Zygomatic implants require specialized training. Choose a surgeon with extensive zygomatic experience, proper credentials, and a high volume of these specific cases. Ask to see before/after photos and success rates.
Insider Note:
This is complex surgery with higher risks than regular implants. However, the benefit is avoiding months of bone grafting procedures. For patients with severe bone loss, zygomatic implants offer a faster path to fixed teeth.
