It can be disheartening for patients told they aren’t candidates for traditional dental implants due to insufficient bone in the upper jaw. Many give up hope on ever restoring their smile, believing there are no other options. At Diamond District Dental Cosmetic and Implant Dentistry, we offer advanced solutions for zygomatic implants to our patients in the New York, NY, area.
These specialized dental implants provide an alternative for patients with significant bone loss in the upper jaw, where traditional implants cannot be placed. Zygomatic implants anchor into the cheekbone (zygoma), a denser and more reliable bone, enabling a stable foundation for a new smile. Even patients with complex dental needs can achieve a healthy, beautiful smile with modern techniques and cutting-edge technology!
Patients who have experienced significant bone loss in the upper jaw and have been told they are not candidates for traditional dental implants are excellent candidates for zygomatic implants. These implants are specifically designed for those who lack sufficient bone density for conventional dental implants, eliminating the need for extensive bone grafting.
Zygomatic implants offer a stable, durable option for patients who want to restore their smile without additional surgical procedures. You might consider zygomatic dental implants if you’ve previously been told you are not eligible for regular implants or if you’re looking for a faster, more reliable way to regain a complete set of teeth. With zygomatic implants, patients who thought they were out of options can now enjoy the benefits of a strong, healthy smile.
Your treatment begins with a thorough consultation, during which we assess your oral health and determine whether zygomatic implants are the best solution. Using advanced imaging technology, we evaluate your bone structure and create a custom treatment plan. We will discuss the details of your treatment plan, including the cost of treatment and scheduling, and take the time to answer all your questions.
During the procedure, we anchor long implant screws into the zygoma, also known as the cheekbone. Typically, this approach involves placing two zygomatic implants alongside two to four traditional implants in the front part of the jaw where the upper front teeth used to be.
If teeth need to be extracted before implant placement, we can perform the extractions during the same surgery. Before you leave, we’ll provide a natural-looking temporary restoration so you can immediately enjoy the benefits of your brand-new smile!
Over the next 3-6 months, your implants will fuse to your zygomatic bone through osseointegration. Once healed, you’ll receive a permanent restoration and successful integration of implants with your underlying bone. Like many other patients who have chosen zygomatic implants in New York, NY, you’ll relish remarkable functional and aesthetic advantages for years, potentially even a lifetime!
