From No Bone to New Smile: How Zygomatic Implants Restore Hope

From No Bone to New Smile: How Zygomatic Implants Restore Hope

1 July Tue, 2025

When James, a 64-year-old from the UK, contacted us, his message was brief but powerful:
"I’ve been told I can’t get implants anymore. Is there really nothing left to do?"

For patients like James, the journey to a new smile is often filled with disappointment. Years of wearing dentures, bone loss from long-term extractions, or failed past procedures leave many told they’re not candidates for implants—unless they undergo complex and invasive bone grafting. But at Milim Dental, we’ve been rewriting that narrative.

Because when everything says it’s impossible, Zygomatic Implants say otherwise.


When Traditional Implants Are No Longer an Option

Severe bone loss in the upper jaw is common in long-term denture wearers or patients with untreated gum disease. Normally, implant-supported teeth need solid bone to anchor into—something missing in many of these patients.

Enter zygomatic implants: longer, specially angled implants that secure into the cheekbone (zygoma), a dense and stable structure unaffected by jaw bone loss. It sounds complex, but in expert hands, it’s not only safe—it’s transformational.


What Makes This Treatment Different?

Unlike standard implants:

  • No bone grafting required

  • No sinus lift surgeries

  • Immediate loading often possible (same-day smile)

  • High success rates even in “hopeless” cases

At Milim Dental, we plan these surgeries with 3D scans, digital simulations, and surgical guides—bringing both safety and precision together under one roof.


A Story We See Often—And Love to Change

James arrived in Bursa two months after that first message. His upper jaw had almost no bone. His removable denture had given him nothing but frustration. He couldn’t eat, and he’d long stopped smiling.

After a full evaluation, we placed two zygomatic and two pterygoid implants—no grafting, no delay. The next day, he left the clinic with fixed temporary teeth and a different look in his eyes: confidence.

“I thought I’d never chew steak again. Last night I did—with my own teeth.”


Why Milim Dental? Because We Don’t Just Fix Teeth—We Restore Possibility

We only accept a limited number of international patients each month. This allows our team to focus deeply on each case, especially complex treatments like zygomatic implants.

Our difference:

  • 🦷 Complex cases are our strength

  • 📈 Predictable outcomes through digital planning

  • 🌿 Recovery in a peaceful city like Bursa, not a chaotic tourist hub

  • 🏨 Full-service coordination: transfers, hotel, personal coordinator


Who Is a Candidate? Maybe You Are.

If you’ve been told “you don’t have enough bone,” you might be exactly the kind of patient zygomatic implants were designed for. Many of our patients come after being turned away elsewhere.

Before you accept dentures as your only option, let us review your scans and provide a second opinion.


Conclusion: The Smile You Thought You Lost Forever? It's Still Possible.

We’re not just offering a dental solution—we’re offering back the ability to laugh without hiding, to eat without fear, and to smile in photos again.

Let Milim Dental show you what’s still possible.

You Don’t Have to Depend on Fixodent/Corega Anymore: Beyond Denture Adhesives — The Solution of Zygomatic Implants

For years, you may have had to rely on denture adhesives such as Fixodent or Corega, feeling insecure while speaking, eating, or when your denture moved. Perhaps you were once told, “Implants are not possible,” or “Your bone loss is too severe.” Today, thanks to zygomatic implants, selected patients with advanced upper jaw bone loss can achieve a stable, adhesive-free, fixed solution.

What Is a Dental Abscess and What Causes It?

A dental abscess is one of the most common oral and gum infections encountered in daily life. It can develop due to poor oral hygiene and, if left untreated, may lead to serious health problems. A dental abscess is an infection that occurs as a result of inflammation in the gums, tooth root, or surrounding tissues. If not treated in time, it may become chronic and develop into a cyst. By maintaining proper gum health and oral hygiene, gum abscesses and related tooth pain can be prevented.
