Zygoma Implants in Scottsdale, AZ
Fixed teeth for patients with severe upper jaw bone loss—often in one visit

Missing upper teeth and told you don’t have enough bone for traditional dental implants? Zygoma implants (also called zygomatic implants) are a proven, advanced solution that anchor into the cheekbone (zygoma)—a naturally dense, stable bone—so you can get secure, long‑lasting teeth without bone grafts. At Scottsdale Dental Ranch, our implant team uses 3D planning and guided surgery to deliver predictable, comfortable results for patients who were previously told they weren’t candidates.

Why Choose Zygoma Implants?

No bone grafts, no sinus lifts: Ideal for patients with severe maxillary bone loss or failed grafts.
Fewer surgeries, faster results: Often placed with immediate‑load teeth the same day.
Exceptional stability: The zygomatic bone offers dense anchorage for long‑term success.
Life-changing function & confidence: Eat, laugh, and smile again with a stable, fixed smile.

Who Is a Candidate?

You may be a candidate if you have:

  • Advanced bone loss in the upper jaw (maxilla)
  • Long‑term denture wear with looseness or sore spots
  • Failing bridges, loose or failing traditional implants
  • A history of sinus lift or graft failure
  • Severe periodontal (gum) disease resulting in tooth loss

Benefits vs. Traditional Implants & Grafts

  • Skip months of bone grafting: Fewer surgeries and faster time to teeth
  • High stability in low‑bone situations: Anchors in dense zygomatic bone
  • Immediate function: In many cases, same‑day fixed teeth
  • Proven solution for complex cases: Especially when other treatments have failed

How Zygomatic Implants Work

Traditional implants anchor in the jawbone. Zygomatic implants are longer posts that anchor into the cheekbone—a strong, dense structure—bypassing areas where jawbone has resorbed. Depending on your needs, zygomatic implants are placed alone (one or two per side) or combined with standard implants for a hybrid, full‑arch solution.
Comprehensive 3D Evaluation

We take a cone beam CT (CBCT) scan to evaluate bone quality, sinus anatomy, and nerve position. This allows precise planning and safe implant placement.

Personalized Treatment Plan

We review your options: zygomatic‑only, hybrid placement (zygomatic + conventional), or staged approaches. You’ll see timelines, costs, and what to expect—no surprises.

Guided Surgery with Sedation

With IV sedation or oral sedation options, most patients rest comfortably while we place the implants using computer‑guided techniques for accuracy and efficiency.

Immediate Provisional Teeth

In many cases, we deliver a fixed provisional bridge the same day, so you leave with teeth—no removable denture.

Final Zirconia or Hybrid Bridge

After a short healing period, we deliver your custom, strong, and beautiful final bridge designed for optimal function, bite, and esthetics.

How Long Do Zygoma Implants Last?

With proper care, zygoma implants are designed for long‑term performance. Regular cleanings, nightguard use when indicated (for clenching/bruxism), and professional monitoring help protect your investment.

Zygoma vs. All‑on‑4®

All‑on‑4® works well for many patients, but if you have severe upper bone loss, zygoma implants can offer the stability you need without grafts. We frequently combine zygomatic implants with 2–4 conventional implants for a hybrid full‑arch—customized to your anatomy for the strongest, most predictable result.
