The Graftless Solution: A Permanent Smile with Zygomatic Implants
Aug 12, 2025
Have you been told you don't have enough bone for traditional dental implants? For patients who have experienced severe upper jawbone loss, hearing this can feel like the end of the road for a permanent, fixed smile. But what if there were an advanced solution that could bypass the need for extensive bone grafting?
At Veda Family Dentistry, we are proud to offer zygomatic implants, a revolutionary technique designed specifically for patients with significant maxillary (upper jaw) bone atrophy. This state-of-the-art procedure provides a secure foundation for a full arch of new teeth, even when you've been told it wasn't possible.
What Are Zygomatic Implants?
Zygomatic implants are extra-long dental implants that are anchored into the zygoma, or the cheekbone, instead of the upper jawbone. The cheekbone is incredibly dense and, unlike the jawbone, does not resorb or shrink away after tooth loss. This makes it a solid, permanent foundation for supporting a full bridge of teeth.
By utilizing the strength of the cheekbone, zygomatic implants provide a stable and reliable "graftless" solution, often eliminating the need for complex and lengthy bone grafting procedures, such as sinus lifts.
Who is an Ideal Candidate for Zygomatic Implants?
This advanced procedure is a life-changing option for patients who:
Have severe bone loss in the upper jaw, often due to long-term denture use or genetics.
Have been told they are not candidates for traditional dental implants.
Wish to avoid the bone grafting process and its associated healing time.
Have had previous implants or bone grafting procedures fail.
A thorough evaluation, including advanced 3D CBCT imaging, is required to determine if you are a candidate for this specialized treatment.
