Usually, after extracting a tooth, the bone that held the tooth starts to shrink. In some cases, the shrinkage is severe resulting in the insufficient bone to hold a dental implant. This usually means a sinus lift and bone graft is required to build up the bone structure and achieve better stability. In certain cases, we can place longer Zygomatic implants into the cheekbone, giving better stability and strength to hold an implant-retained bridge, and thus sometimes negating the need for a bone graft. Zygomatic implants are placed carefully, avoiding the sinuses and eliminating the need for sinus lifts.
Dental implants are a great solution to replace missing teeth but can involve a 6-month period of waiting for the implant to fuse with the bone before placing teeth onto the implants. With a Zygomatic arch implant, you can place a bridge onto the implants straight away; therefore, you will walk out of the surgery with a brand-new smile.
To find out if a Zygomatic arch implant is an option for you, why not book an appointment at our dental practice in Lincolnshire. Other dental implant treatments are also offered at Elegant Smiles in Lincolnshire such as dental mini implants and All-on-4 Implants.
