Zygomatic Implants in Tijuana | Severe Bone Loss Solution

Zygomatic implants are a specialized solution for patients with severe bone loss in the upper jaw who have been told they are not candidates for traditional implants or All-on-4. Instead of anchoring in the jawbone, zygomatic implants anchor in the cheekbone — one of the densest bones in the skull — eliminating the need for extensive bone grafting in most cases.

What are zygomatic implants?

A zygomatic implant is a longer-than-standard implant (between 30mm and 52mm) that bypasses the upper jawbone entirely and anchors in the zygomatic bone — commonly known as the cheekbone. The cheekbone maintains its density even when the upper jaw has suffered severe bone loss from tooth loss, gum disease, or long-term denture use.

Zygomatic implants are typically used in combination with standard implants to support a full fixed arch in the upper jaw. The most common configurations are:

  • 2 zygomatic + 2 standard implants
  • 4 zygomatic implants (quad zygoma — for extreme bone loss cases)

The final restoration is a fixed full arch — identical in function and appearance to an All-on-4 result.

Zygomatic implants vs All-on-4

Zygomatic Implants Destacado All-on-4 Comparar
Anchor point Cheekbone Jawbone
Bone required Minimal upper jaw bone Moderate jawbone
Indicated for Severe bone loss Mild to moderate bone loss
Implant length 30–52 mm Standard 10–16 mm
Complexity Higher — specialist required Standard implant protocol
Final result Fixed full arch Fixed full arch

All-on-4 is the first choice for most full arch cases. Zygomatic implants are the solution when All-on-4 is not viable due to insufficient bone.
