For many patients suffering from severe bone loss, the prospect of fixed teeth often ends when conventional dental implants are ruled out. However, with the advancement of zygomatic implants, long-term functional and aesthetic solutions are now possible even in the most challenging cases. Omer Istanbul Dental Center is offering this highly specialized treatment to patients from Turkey and abroad, providing renewed hope through its expertise and use of modern technologies.
What Are Zygomatic Implants?
Zygomatic implants take their name from the “zygoma,” or cheekbone. In traditional dental implantology, the density and volume of the jawbone are critical. When the bone is too weak or resorbed to support an implant, conventional methods fail. At this point, zygomatic implants offer an alternative. Instead of anchoring into the jawbone, these special implants are fixed to the lower base of the cheekbone, creating a stable foundation for permanent prosthetics. This allows patients with advanced bone loss to regain fixed and natural-looking teeth.
When Are They Used?
- Patients with advanced jawbone resorption
- Cases lacking sufficient bone density for conventional implants
- Patients unsuitable for bone grafting or sinus lift procedures
- Individuals who have been without teeth for years and are dissatisfied with removable dentures”
This treatment must be performed exclusively by experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeons. At Omer Istanbul Dental Center, a team of specialized surgeons with expertise in zygomatic implantology provides this advanced care.

Under the leadership of Dr. Omer Karaaslan, Omer Istanbul Dental Center has established itself as a leading provider of advanced implantology, including zygomatic implants, serving an international patient base.

Commenting on the procedure, Dr. Karaaslan said: “Zygomatic implants are one of the most reliable solutions we offer in cases where conventional implants are not an option. With this treatment, we have transformed the lives of many patients who had long lost hope of fixed teeth. Thanks to modern technologies, we can enhance safety while also shortening treatment timelines.”
Patient Comfort and Treatment Workflow
Although zygomatic implant surgery is considered an advanced procedure, the use of digital planning tools and modern imaging systems makes it both predictable and safe. At Omer Istanbul Dental Center, each case begins with comprehensive clinical and radiological evaluation, followed by a personalized surgical plan. In many cases, temporary fixed prostheses can be placed shortly after surgery, allowing patients to return to daily life without extended periods of living without teeth. (The exact timeline depends on the individual’s health status and case complexity.)
Compared with traditional approaches that often require bone grafting or sinus lift procedures, zygomatic implants can reduce the number of treatment stages and shorten the overall rehabilitation process.
