Zygoma Implants
What is Zygoma Implants?
Zygoma Implants are a specialized type of dental implant used for patients who have insufficient bone in the upper jaw for conventional implants. Instead of anchoring into the jawbone, these longer implants are anchored into the zygomatic bone (cheekbone), which is denser and provides strong support for dental prosthetics.
Zygoma implants are ideal for patients with advanced bone loss, who would otherwise require complex bone grafting. They offer a stable foundation for full-arch restorations and enable faster treatment with immediate loading in many cases.
At SCULPT Dental Hospital, our experienced implantologists use advanced techniques to safely and effectively place Zygoma implants, restoring both function and aesthetics for patients with severe maxillary bone loss.
When Do You Need Zygoma Implants?
- Severe bone loss in the upper jaw (maxilla)
- Previously told you are not a candidate for regular dental implants
- Failed bone grafting procedures
- Denture instability and discomfort
- Need for fixed teeth without lengthy grafting timelines
Zygoma Implants Procedure
Assessment & Imaging
A 3D CBCT scan is taken to evaluate bone structure and plan implant placement in the cheekbone.
Treatment Planning
Customized treatment plan developed for the upper jaw using guided surgery techniques.
Implant Placement
Under local anesthesia or sedation, long implants are placed into the zygomatic bone for stability.
Temporary Prosthesis
In many cases, a temporary fixed bridge is placed on the same day for immediate function.
Final Prosthesis
After healing (around 3-6 months) a permanent, natural-looking bridge is securely attached.

Dr. Janani is one of the excellent dentists I have seen. She is treating my son with invisilign braces and I too come here for all my dental related issues. She has enormous patience and answers all the queries of the patients with a beautiful smile always on her face. I really appreciate her treatment methods though I don't have any medical knowledge to comment on the same but I don't visit her for the same problem. It is solved in one go.
My husband is a patient of Dr. Sanjay who is also equally good. Dr. Sanjay too have a lot of resilience and treats the patients with a smile. I highly recommend this clinic for any dental related or smile correction issues. You will get a satisfied result here. Sculpt clinic is one of the best clinics in Chennai.
