Zygomatic Implants - Houston, TX
A Complete, Healthy Smile Is Possible
Have you been told you aren’t a candidate for traditional dental implants or that you need extensive bone grafting because of bone loss? At Newme Dental Implants, we offer an advanced solution: zygomatic dental implants.
These advanced implants anchor into the cheekbone, bypassing the need for sufficient jawbone density. Zygomatic implants are a game-changer, providing hope for patients who thought their smile was beyond repair. With Dr. Tareq Beck’s expertise as a periodontist, you can achieve a healthy, functional smile no matter your circumstances.
Zygomatic implants are ideal for those without enough healthy bone in the upper jaw to support traditional dental implants. After teeth go missing, the body slowly absorbs the crest of bone that once supported those teeth. Therefore, if you’ve been wearing traditional dentures for a long time, you may not have enough bone to support implant posts.
This approach is also an excellent alternative if other issues, such as a previous injury or infection that damaged the bone of the upper jaw or an enlarged sinus cavity, have compromised your bone volume. This could be the perfect solution if you’ve been told traditional dental implants won’t work for you.
Your journey to a restored smile begins with a personalized consultation at Newme Dental Implants in Houston, TX. Dr. Beck will evaluate your oral health, review your medical history, and take advanced imaging to assess your bone structure.
We will discuss your concerns, smile goals, and options in detail to ensure you feel confident about your treatment plan. This step is about creating a customized solution tailored to your unique needs.
If zygomatic implants are the best approach for your needs, we’ll ensure your total comfort on surgery day with safe and effective dental anesthesia. From there, we’ll make a small incision through the gums to access the underlying bone just behind where your canine teeth would typically be.
We will use advanced 3D diagnostic imaging to ensure the precise placement of specialized implant posts into dense, strong zygomatic bone tissue.
Whenever possible, we’ll place temporary restorations on the same day as your surgery, ensuring ideal healing and allowing you to return to your routine as quickly as possible.
We want to ensure you get the best possible outcome from your dental implants, so we will schedule a few follow-up appointments while your mouth heals. In some cases, we may recommend a follow-up visit after several weeks so that we can confirm that everything is healing well and address any issues with your temporary teeth or other concerns you may have.
Over the next several months, your dental implants will integrate with the zygomatic bone and achieve full strength and permanent stability. Once your healing is complete and the implants are fully integrated, you’ll return to our office for updated scans so that we can craft your permanent restorations or prostheses.
These restorations are crafted to look, feel, and function like natural teeth, giving you a durable and radiant smile. Before completing your treatment, we’ll make sure everything fits perfectly and meets your expectations. We will also provide ongoing care so you can enjoy a secure, long-lasting solution that transforms your smile and confidence for life!
