Zygomatic Implants Tackle Severe Bone Loss

Zygomatic dental implants are ideal for patients with extensive bone loss in the upper jaw. By anchoring into the cheekbone (zygoma), they bypass the need for jawbone grafting and make full-arch restoration possible—even if you’ve been told implants aren’t an option. Our Houston implant experts use this approach to restore function and aesthetics, giving you a confident new smile and better quality of life.

Understanding Zygomatic Dental Implants

Unlike traditional implants secured in the jawbone, zygomatic dental implants are surgically placed in the cheekbone—a dense, stable bone that provides strong support. This method eliminates the need for bone grafting and allows us to support a bridge of fixed teeth, even in patients with significant bone loss. Because it’s a highly complex procedure, only a select number of implant dentists—including our team in Houston—routinely place zygomatic implants with successful outcomes. 💡 Want to learn more about how this works? Visit the National Library of Medicine for a clinical overview of zygomatic implants.

What To Expect From Zygomatic Implants?

Although the name may sound intimidating, zygomatic dental implants can often be placed in a single procedure—without the need for bone grafts. Using 3D cone-beam CT technology, we plan your treatment digitally before surgery, placing each implant in the most stable area of bone. In many cases, traditional implants are also placed where the bone is denser. Because there’s no need to wait for graft healing, treatment with zygomatic implants is typically faster and more comfortable. You’ll leave with a fully functional smile that looks and feels natural. At Dr. Friedberg & Associates, we use this advanced approach to restore smiles and lives—permanently.
