Zygomatic Implants

What are Zygomatic Implants?

Zygomatic implants are a modern and innovative solution for patients who have significantly lost maxillary bone structure and for whom conventional implant options are no longer viable. Also known as “last resort implants”, these implants are used in cases where bone grafts are either not possible or have been attempted unsuccessfully before. Unlike standard implants, which are anchored in the maxillary bone, zygomatic implants are inserted into the zygomatic bone (or cheekbone), a solid bone located higher in the skull, near the eyes.

In top dental clinics in Moldova, such as Punto Bianco in Chișinău, this procedure is performed under general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort and safety, allowing surgeons to work with maximum precision.

The procedure allows for the placement of permanent dental prostheses, providing patients with a functional and aesthetic smile, even in the most difficult cases.

Who are suitable candidates for zygomatic implants?

  • Patients with severe bone atrophy – People who have lost a large part of their maxillary bone and are not candidates for conventional dental implants.
  • Patients whose bone grafts have failed – Those who have undergone bone grafting procedures that were unsuccessful or are considered risky.
  • Patients who cannot undergo bone grafting – Situations where bone regeneration procedures, such as grafts, are contraindicated for medical reasons.
  • Patients who want a quick solution – Zygomatic implants allow for the placement of fixed dental prostheses in a shorter time than conventional methods, providing an immediate and stable solution.
  • Patients who have worn removable dentures for a long time – Those who have used removable dentures long-term and have suffered significant bone loss due to lack of bone stimulation.
  • Patients with multiple failed oral rehabilitations – Those who have tried multiple oral rehabilitation treatments without satisfactory results and are seeking a durable and stable solution.
  • Patients who want complete and aesthetic rehabilitation – People who want to completely restore their teeth but cannot benefit from other types of implants due to lack of bone.

Types of solutions for obtaining fixed teeth using zygomatic implants

Advanced techniques using zygomatic implants in Moldova

All-on-4 vs All-on-6 cu implanturi zigomatice în moldova

All-on-4 or All-on-6 with zygomatic implants

This technique typically uses 2 zygomatic implants in combination with 2 or 4 traditional dental implants to support fixed teeth.

Quad Zygoma Technique

This procedure involves using four zygomatic implants, two on each side of the maxilla, providing a stable solution for patients with extremely atrophied maxillary bone.

Hybrid technique with pterygoid implants

Punto Bianco Clinic offers hybrid solutions that combine zygomatic and pterygoid implants to cover areas where the maxillary bone is insufficient.

Hybrid technique: Zygomatic + transnasal implants

Involves the use of transnasal implants, which are inserted through the nasal base, in combination with zygomatic implants to provide a stable solution for fixed teeth.

Partial rehabilitation using zygomatic implants

There are situations where severe atrophy is present only on one side of the maxilla, either right or left. In such cases, extensive bone augmentation can be avoided by using a zygomatic implant on the affected side, combined with one or two conventional dental implants.

There are multiple solutions for patients who want fixed teeth, even in cases of severe bone atrophy, using zygomatic implants and other advanced techniques. These techniques are available at Punto Bianco dental clinic in Chișinău, Moldova and are adapted according to each patient’s needs.

FAQ Zygomatic Implants

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia, so patients do not feel pain during the intervention. After surgery, discomfort and swelling may occur, but these are manageable with medications prescribed by the surgeon.

Among the main advantages are avoiding major bone augmentation, high stability, and the possibility of obtaining fixed teeth in cases of severe atrophy. In many cases, rehabilitation can be achieved on the same day, reducing total treatment time.

The healing period can vary from patient to patient, but generally is similar to that of traditional implants, approximately 3-6 months. However, due to the stability provided by the zygomatic bone, many patients receive temporary fixed work immediately after the intervention.

Like any surgical intervention, zygomatic implants involve risks, such as infections or injuries to adjacent facial structures. However, when performed by an experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeon in clinics like Punto Bianco in Chișinău, these risks are minimal.

Zygomatic implants are significantly longer than conventional dental implants, with a length between 30 mm and 52.5 mm. This is necessary because zygomatic implants must traverse a greater distance, being inserted into the zygomatic bone (located near the cheekbones) to provide stability in patients with severe maxillary bone atrophy.

Zygomatic implants have a high success rate, similar to that of conventional dental implants, ranging between 95% and 98%, depending on clinical studies and the surgical experience of the team. The success rate depends on factors such as zygomatic bone quality, the surgical technique used, and the patient’s postoperative oral hygiene.
