Zygomatic Implants Explained for Patients Over 50

What Are Zygomatic Implants?

Zygomatic implants are longer than traditional implants and anchor into the cheekbone (zygomatic bone) instead of the upper jaw. This provides a secure foundation for dental bridges or dentures, even when there is insufficient jawbone.

Why Are They Ideal for Patients Over 50?

As we age, bone density can decrease, making it difficult to support traditional implants. Zygomatic implants offer a revolutionary alternative with several key benefits:

  • No Need for Bone Grafts: They eliminate the need for complex bone grafting procedures, saving time and reducing recovery.

  • Immediate Function: In many cases, a fixed bridge can be attached on the same day as the surgery.

  • High Success Rate: Zygomatic implants have a proven track record of success, providing a stable, long-term solution.
