Have you been told traditional dental implants aren’t a solution to restoring your missing teeth? If so, zygomatic implants in Concord and Mentor, OH, may be the solution! Zygomatic implants anchor into the dense, stable cheekbone rather than the jawbone, providing a secure foundation.
Their unique placement allows for full-arch restoration without the need for bone grafting. At Cleveland Implant Institute, we specialize in advanced solutions like zygomatic implants to help patients with severe bone loss achieve confident, lasting smiles.
Before zygomatic implants were introduced, patients with upper jawbone loss often needed bone grafts to support dental implants. However, bone grafts can take 6-12 months to heal before implant placement is possible. Zygomatic implants eliminate the need for bone grafting, allowing for immediate implant placement and a brand-new smile right after the procedure.
Some patients may need a sinus lift before getting implants when the upper jaw loses bone mass. This procedure strengthens the bone between the oral cavity and the sinus to prevent damage during implant placement. However, several months of healing are required before implants can be placed. Zygomatic implants eliminate the need for a sinus lift, offering a faster and more efficient implant process.
Zygomatic implants are anchored into the cheekbone, allowing for immediate implant placement. This means you don’t have to endure a healing period without teeth!
If you need to replace teeth on your upper and lower jaw, zygomatic implants can be implanted alongside traditional implants.
Zygomatic implants have a high success rate—about 97 percent— similar to traditional dental implants success rate.
Your journey begins with a free comprehensive consultation. During this visit, our board-certified implant dentist, Dr. Michael Fioritto, will assess your oral health, take detailed 3D imaging, and determine whether zygomatic implants are the best solution for you. We’ll discuss your options, answer any questions, and create a customized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
We will use advanced technology to ensure precise and comfortable placement on the day of your implant placement. The zygomatic implants are longer than traditional implants and are anchored into the dense cheekbone instead of the upper jaw. We offer IV sedation and anesthesia options to ensure a pain-free experience and make the procedure as smooth as possible.
After the implants are placed, we attach a temporary set of teeth so you can leave our office with a functional and natural-looking smile the same day. Over the next few months, your implants will integrate with the bone, creating a strong foundation. Follow-up visits will be scheduled to monitor healing and ensure everything is progressing as expected.
Once your implants fully integrate with the bone, we will attach your permanent, custom-designed prosthetic teeth. These final restorations are crafted to match your natural smile, providing both aesthetics and full functionality. With zygomatic dental implants, you can enjoy a strong, beautiful smile without worrying about bone loss or the instability of traditional dentures.
