What are Zygoma Implants?
Zygoma Implants are longer than traditional dental implants and are anchored in the zygomatic bone, also known as the cheekbone. This approach bypasses the need for bone grafting, making it an ideal option for patients with significant bone loss in the upper jaw due to conditions such as periodontal disease, trauma, or long-term denture use.
At Dr. Balaji Dental Hospital in Tambaram, Chennai, we are proud to offer advanced Zygoma Implants, a cutting-edge solution for patients who have experienced severe bone loss in the upper jaw. These implants provide a stable and secure foundation for dental restorations, even in cases where traditional implants are not feasible.
Benefits of Zygoma Implants:
- Immediate Functionality: Zygoma Implants allow for immediate loading of dental restorations, meaning that you can have a functional set of teeth much quicker compared to traditional methods.
- High Success Rate: These implants have a high success rate and provide a reliable alternative to bone grafting.
- Enhanced Stability: Anchored in the dense zygomatic bone, Zygoma Implants offer superior stability and support for dental restorations.
- Minimally Invasive: The procedure reduces the need for extensive bone grafting surgeries, making it a less invasive option for many patients.

Consultation and Treatment Process

- Personalized Treatment Plan: Based on the evaluation, Dr. Balaji will create a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. This plan will include details about the procedure, recovery, and aftercare.
- Procedure: The Zygoma Implant procedure is typically performed under sedation or general anesthesia. Dr. Balaji will carefully place the implants into the zygomatic bone, ensuring precise positioning for optimal support and stability.
- Post-Procedure Care: After the surgery, patients can expect some swelling and discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medications. Follow-up visits will be scheduled to monitor healing and progress.
- Restoration: Once the implants have integrated with the bone, which usually takes a few months, the final dental restorations can be placed. This includes fitting crowns, bridges, or dentures to restore full functionality and aesthetics to your smile.
