Dental implants can completely rebuild your smile’s health, function, and beauty. If you have enough healthy bone structure to support the implant posts, that is. If you’ve been turned away from the life-changing potential of restoring your smile with dental implants, Noah Smile Group may be able to help!
Our implant dentists have the advanced training and expertise to place zygomatic dental implants in Brooklyn, NY. Not all implant specialists are equipped to provide this game-changing treatment, which makes dental implants possible, even if you have severe bone loss in the upper jaw.
Zygomatic implants use specialized implant posts that are much longer than standard posts. The added length allows us to anchor the implant into the dense zygomatic (cheek) bone.
Since this placement doesn’t rely on the arch of bone where standard implants would typically sit, it’s an excellent alternative for patients who would rather avoid bone grafting or in cases where grafting would have an uncertain outcome.
That also means fewer visits and a less invasive surgical process than a traditional approach involving a bone graft, with a stronger, more predictable result.
Many people lose teeth because of severe periodontal disease, which damages the bony support structure that holds the teeth in place. Injuries and abnormal facial anatomy can also compromise the health and structure of this ridge of bone.
In many cases, prolonged denture use allows the bone to shrink, leaving you without enough bone tissue to support an implant.
Most people make great zygomatic implant candidates since your level of bone loss won’t affect the long-term success of this type of surgery.
We believe fully personalized care is essential to delivering the best possible results for every treatment. So, your process will start with a comprehensive consultation.
We want to understand your concerns about how missing or failing teeth and your dental and medical history affect your daily life. We will discuss your goals for getting dental implants and any concerns and questions you have.
Then, we’ll collect thorough diagnostics using state-of-the-art 3D scans and digital X-rays, which we’ll use to create a precise computer replica of your facial anatomy.
Using this computer model, we’ll plan every aspect of your treatment in detail to eliminate any potential complications compromising your results. On surgery day, you’ll rest comfortably with the right anesthesia option for your needs. Even though zygomatic dental implants are a less invasive approach than other options, many patients prefer to sleep through their surgery, and we’re equipped to make that happen!
We use fully guided surgical techniques to ensure the most efficient and precise process possible. In many cases, we can place your implants in the same appointment as any extractions you need, helping to streamline your process and minimize the number of visits you’ll need.
Like other implants, zygomatic dental implants take several months to integrate fully with the supporting bone tissue. However, since we won’t need to place bone grafts, most patients only experience mild discomfort for the first few days after surgery, and the rest of the healing process is painless.
Once your zygomatic implants have fused to the bone, you’ll return to our office so we can place your final restorations. We’ll custom craft every tooth in your prosthesis with consideration for your facial structure, skin tone, and smile shape so you can enjoy a beautiful, natural-looking smile for life!
