Zygomatic implants are a specialized type of dental implant used for patients with significant bone loss in the upper jaw. These implants are anchored in the zygomatic bone, or cheekbone, which is denser and provides a more secure foundation than the jawbone. When it comes to traditional implants, the procedure usually consists of two stages: the first surgery to install the implant is followed by a healing phase require several months for osseointegration before the crown is placed. The total time needed for treatment can be decreased by placing and loading temporary teeth into zygomatic implants in a single surgery.

Traditional and zygomatic implants have high success rates when performed by experienced professionals. However, zygomatic implants are particularly successful in patients with severe bone loss, where traditional implants might fail.
