Zygomatic Implants
Your Complete Smile
is Still Possible
Overcoming Hurdles and Restoring Smiles
When teeth are lost, the body resorbs the bone that once supported those teeth. Over time, extensive bone loss in the upper jaw can make the placement of conventional dental implants unfeasible. Fortunately, Dr. Priveer Sharma and Dr. Rodrigo Sarmento possesse specialized training as oral surgeons to perform zygomatic dental implant procedures. This approach to dental implants negates the necessity for bone grafting or a ridge augmentation while offering a full arch of robust, secure, and naturally appearing replacement teeth.

Zygomatic Implants: Elevating Your Smile and Minimizing Complexity
Zygomatic implants are strategically positioned within the zygomatic (cheek) bones, renowned for their robust and stable structure. They offer an excellent solution for patients with significant bone loss or insufficient jawbone density to support traditional implants, often eliminating the need for additional procedures such as bone grafting. Because they are placed in the cheekbone rather than the jawbone, zygomatic implants provide a less invasive alternative for patients who might otherwise require extensive bone reconstruction. Their placement is among the most advanced and precise procedures in implant dentistry.
At Sharma Oral Surgery, Dr. Priveer Sharma and Dr. Rodrigo Sarmento have extensive experience in performing zygomatic dental implant procedures. With nearly two decades of surgical expertise, our team delivers safe, predictable outcomes — helping patients in Charlotte, NC, and beyond regain function, confidence, and a lasting smile.

Our Zygomatic Implant Process
We understand the frustration of dealing with missing teeth and bone loss, especially when you’ve been turned away from the transformative potential of dental implants. Advanced surgical techniques like zygomatic implants offer renewed hope for rebuilding your smile permanently. Your journey toward restoring your smile begins with a comprehensive consultation. Dr. Sharma and Dr. Sarmento will employ 3D cone-beam CT scans to plan every aspect of your procedure with digital precision meticulously. Your comfort during the procedure is paramount, and we offer various anesthesia options to ensure a suitable choice for you.
Dr. Sharma and Dr. Sarmento then strategically place your implant posts within your zygomatic bone at a 45-degree angle, ensuring maximum stability. In some cases, conventional dental implants are also placed where sufficient bone volume exists, further enhancing the stability of your new smile. Once your implants are placed, we’ll attach your temporary restoration so you can enjoy your teeth immediately! The healing process typically spans several months, with most patients experiencing minimal discomfort only during the initial days.
Since this treatment obviates bone grafting, we can often expedite your treatment process, providing you with a functional and aesthetically pleasing new smile more swiftly than conventional approaches. Once your implants have fully integrated with the supporting bone, we can place your stunning final restorations, granting you a smile you’ll cherish for a lifetime. With zygomatic dental implants from Sharma Oral Surgery, you can permanently elevate your quality of life!
