Rehabilitation of resorbed maxilla with zygomatic implants- A review
Journal Title: International Journal of Applied Dental Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Zygomatic implants were designed for situations where atrophy of the posterior maxilla complicates or prevents the placement of conventional implants. The use of zygomatic implants avoids the need for bone grafting, shortens treatment time and reduces morbidity. The success rate obtained by different authors varies between 82% and 100%, indicating this technique as a valid treatment option. The objective of this review is to revise the literature with the aim of updating the subject.
