A Breakthrough in Dental Technology

Zygomatic dental implants represent a significant advancement in dental technology. This innovative approach offers several advantages over traditional dental implants, including:

No Bone Grafting Required: Zygomatic implants can be placed without the need for bone grafting, making them a suitable option for patients with extensive bone loss.

Immediate Loading: In some cases, zygomatic implants can be loaded with temporary restorations immediately after placement, allowing for faster rehabilitation.

Improved Aesthetics: Zygomatic implants can provide excellent aesthetic results, especially in cases of significant tooth loss.

Enhanced Functionality: Zygomatic implants can restore your ability to chew, speak, and smile with confidence.

What Are Zygomatic Dental Implants?

Conventional dental implants are secured in the jawbone. Zygomatic dental implants, on the other hand, are surgically placed in the zygomatic (cheek) bones. Because the support for these implants comes from a strong, stable facial bone, they don’t need alterations of the jawbone (such as bone grafting) to support a full bridge of teeth.When getting zygomatic dental implants, it’s important to choose an implant dentist who is experienced with the procedure, as zygomatic implants are among the most complex surgeries in implant dentistry. Dr. Sal places zygomatic implants in Ashland, MA regularly, and he and his staff have decades of combined experienced to bring you the best results.

Dr. Sal uses cone-beam CT scans to digitally plan your treatment before you even show up for your surgery, and 3D printed surgical guides ensure that your zygomatic implants are placed precisely in your mouth.

The Procedure

The zygomatic dental implant procedure is a specialized surgical intervention designed for patients with significant bone loss in the upper jaw. This innovative approach involves anchoring implants to the cheekbones (zygomatic arches), providing a stable and durable foundation for dental restorations.

The zygomatic dental implant procedure is typically completed in multiple stages, with each stage allowing for healing and evaluation of the implant placement. Dr. Sal will provide you with detailed instructions and support throughout the entire process.

Consultation and Planning: The process begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your oral health and jawbone anatomy. Dr. Sal will assess your suitability for zygomatic dental implants and develop a personalized treatment plan.

Preparation: Prior to the surgery, you will undergo a series of preparatory steps, including imaging studies to visualize your jawbone structure.

Surgery: The zygomatic dental implant procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia. Dr. Sal will make incisions in the upper gum tissue and carefully place the implants into the cheekbones. The implants are then secured in place using special screws.

Healing Period: After the surgery, you will need to allow time for the implants to integrate with the surrounding bone. This process typically takes several months.

Abutment Placement: Once the implants have healed, abutments are placed on top of them to connect to the final restorations.

Restoration: The final stage involves placing the restorations, which can be crowns, bridges, or dentures, on the abutments.

Recovery from Zygomatic Dental Procedure

The recovery process for zygomatic dental implants is generally similar to that of traditional dental implants. You may experience some swelling, discomfort, and bruising in the area of the surgery. Dr. Sal will provide you with post-operative instructions to help you manage your recovery and promote healing.

What to Expect When You Get Zygomatic Implants

Zygomatic dental implants may sound more invasive than conventional treatments, but as with traditional implants, they can be placed in a single surgical procedure while you’re sedated. Dr. Sal uses cone-beam CT scans to digitally plan your treatment before you even show up for your surgery, and 3D printed surgical guides ensure that your zygomatic implants are placed precisely in your mouth. He may also place conventional dental implants in places where your jawbone is strongest. Because no bone grafting is necessary for this treatment, you can generally walk away with a temporary set of replacement teeth on the same day of your surgery! With zygomatic dental implants from NuArch by Dr. Sal, you can improve your quality of life dramatically in just a day.
