ZYGOMA

Patient requirements: Fixed prosthesis
Clinical situation: Severe bone resorption
Dental implant experience: Experienced surgeons

Successful prosthetic rehabilitation of patients with severe bone resorption in the maxilla is often compromised by the inability to obtain sufficient anchorage for the prosthesis. Such patients seek a permanent solution that involves minimal surgical procedures and reduced treatment time, without sacrificing their expectations of success.

The development of the Zygoma implant presents a unique alternative for rehabilitating the severely resorbed maxilla, with only one surgical procedure and without the need for grafting.




TREATMENT PLANNING

Factors to consider when planning a Zygoma-implant patient:

• Clinically symptom free and pathology free sinuses
• Appropriate radiographic imaging of the maxillary sinuses and zygoma regions
• Possibility of placing at least two ordinary implants in the frontal maxilla
• Possibility of controling or decreasing bending moments by cross-arch stabilization, decreased cantilevers and balanced occlusion
