This method is preferred in cases of severe bone loss in the upper jaw. These are implants placed in the patient’s zygomatic bone (cheekbone). These are special titanium implants ranging in length from 30 mm to 55 mm. This method, which offers the possibility of fixed teeth in a single session without requiring a bone graft (bone powder), provides a safe and permanent solution even when there is insufficient bone for traditional implants to anchor. The procedure is performed at our clinic by a specialist professor. If necessary, it can be performed under sedation. With proper planning and good oral hygiene, they can be used trouble-free for many years. After the procedure, a temporary or permanent prosthesis can be securely screwed into place. A CBCT scan is always performed prior to the procedure.
Zygomatic implant treatment is an advanced surgical solution developed specifically for patients who have been edentulous for many years and have experienced significant bone resorption in the upper jaw. While standard implant treatments often require additional surgical procedures such as bone grafting or sinus lifts when there is insufficient bone volume, zygomatic implants attach directly to the zygomatic bone, so these procedures are rarely needed. This significantly shortens the treatment duration and offers the patient a more comfortable process.
The procedure is customized for each patient through detailed radiological examination and digital planning. Thanks to CBCT imaging, bone density, anatomical structures, and implant placement are assessed with millimeter-level precision. The surgical procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, though sedation or general anesthesia options may also be considered for the patient’s comfort.
The post-treatment recovery process is generally quick, and patients can often receive their fixed temporary teeth on the same day or shortly thereafter. This ensures that daily life is not disrupted, both aesthetically and functionally. In the long term, with proper oral hygiene, regular check-ups, and appropriate prosthetic planning, zygomatic implants can be used safely for years with high success rates.
