Zygomatic Implants: A Solution for Patients Over 50

For patients over 50 with significant jaw bone loss, traditional dental implants may not be an option without extensive bone grafting. Zygomatic implants offer a revolutionary alternative. At Elonix Dental Clinic, our specialists are experts in this advanced procedure.

Zygomatic Implants Explained for Patients Over 50

Zygomatic implants are much longer than standard implants. Instead of being placed in the jawbone, they anchor into the zygomatic bone (cheekbone), which is dense and provides strong support.

Key Benefits for Patients Over 50

  • No Need for Bone Grafting: This avoids a lengthy and invasive preliminary surgery.

  • Immediate Function: Patients can often receive a fixed bridge on the same day as the surgery.

  • High Success Rate: The cheekbone provides a solid foundation, ensuring long-term stability.

Our oral surgery team uses cutting-edge technology to ensure precise placement and excellent outcomes.
