Zygoma implants are a type of dental implant used for patients with severe bone loss in the upper jaw. These types of implants provide a solution for these patients by utilizing the dense and strong bone of the cheekbones to anchor the implants. They are longer than traditional dental implants and are anchored into the cheekbones (zygomatic bone) instead of the jawbone.
Zygoma implants are typically used to support full arch replacement teeth, similar to All-on-4 implants. They can provide a stable and long-lasting solution for patients who would otherwise not be candidates for traditional dental implants. However, zygoma implants are a more complex and invasive procedure and may not be suitable for all patients. Your dentist or oral surgeon can evaluate your oral health and determine if zygoma implants are the best option for you.
People who have reduced maxillary height or low bone density and cannot go for sinus lift procedures for implants are ideal for zygomatic implants. Zygoma implants can provide a stable and long-lasting solution for patients who would otherwise require bone grafting or other more invasive procedures.
If you have experienced significant bone loss in the upper jaw due to periodontal disease or other factors, zygoma implants may be a suitable alternative to bone grafting or other procedures to restore bone density.
If you have previously undergone traditional dental implant placement and experienced implant failure due to insufficient bone, zygoma implants may be a more stable and long-lasting solution.
If you are missing multiple teeth in the upper jaw and do not have enough bone to support traditional dental implants, zygoma implants can provide a more comprehensive and permanent solution.
If you have poor oral hygiene or have experienced significant gum disease or other dental issues, zygoma implants may be a suitable alternative to traditional dental implants.
You will meet with your dentist or oral surgeon for a consultation and examination to determine if you are a good candidate for zygoma implants. The dentist will evaluate your bone density and overall oral health and create a customized treatment plan.
