For patients with severe bone loss in the upper jaw, traditional dental implants may not be a viable option without extensive bone grafting. Zygomatic implants provide a groundbreaking alternative by anchoring implants directly into the cheekbone (zygomatic bone), bypassing the need for grafting. At Dr. Philippe Chanavaz’s Dubai clinic, we specialize in this advanced implant technique, offering patients a reliable, long-lasting solution to restore their smile and oral functionality.
A temporary set of fixed teeth is attached to the implants immediately after surgery, allowing patients to regain functionality and aesthetics without delay.
Over the next 3–6 months, the implants integrate with the cheekbone through a process called osseointegration, ensuring long-term stability.
Once healing is complete, custom-designed permanent teeth are attached to the implants, providing a natural look and feel.

Traditional implants rely on the jawbone for support, while zygomatic implants are anchored in the cheekbone. This makes them ideal for patients with severe upper jawbone loss.
The surgery is performed under anesthesia, ensuring a comfortable experience. Mild post-operative discomfort is common and can be managed with prescribed medications.
The entire process, including healing, typically takes 3–6 months. However, patients often receive temporary teeth on the same day as implant placement.
Yes, zygomatic implants are a well-established procedure with high success rates. They are particularly safe when performed by experienced implantologists.
A thorough consultation is required to determine candidacy, but most patients can receive zygomatic implants as long as they do not have uncontrolled medical conditions.
