In our many years of experience placing implants, our team has often treated patients who would benefit from dental implants, but who suffer from low bone density in the jaw. Ordinarily, this would either preclude them from having implants or require a bone graft.
With zygomatic implants, we’re able to offer patients the dental implants they need, and the new smile they’ve been dreaming of, without a bone graft.
Zygomatic implants are a special type of implant designed to treat and replace teeth in the upper jaw where significant bone loss has occurred.
The implants themselves are of a longer design, so that they can be implanted into the cheekbone, also known as the zygoma, rather than the jawbone. They are placed in one appointment, reducing the need for multiple treatments and appointments as with bone grafts.

Zygomatic implants are longer dental implants that use the cheekbone, or zygomatic bone, for support rather than relying solely on the upper jawbone.
They may be considered for patients with significant bone loss in the upper jaw who may not be suitable for conventional dental implants without extensive additional procedures.
A detailed assessment is required to determine whether zygomatic implants are appropriate for you.
In some complex cases, zygomatic implants may provide an alternative to extensive bone grafting. This depends on your individual anatomy and clinical circumstances and will be assessed during your consultation.
