Zygomatic Implants

Zygomatic implants are usually slightly different from your regular dental implants in that they are designed to be slightly longer than your regular implant to reach into your cheek bone (zygoma) as opposed to your maxillary bone. They are designed to support restorative procedures that also allows for immediate loading.

It is normally used where the maxillary bone quality and quantity is not enough.
