Dental Implants: Consultation, Procedure, Recovery and Aftercare. Dental implants are artificial tooth roots used to support a restoration for a missing tooth or teeth, helping to stop or prevent jaw bone loss. The dental implant procedure is categorized as a form of prosthetic (artificial replacement) dentistry, but also is considered a form of cosmetic dentistry.
Zygomatic Implants. Zygomatic implants are used when there is insufficient bone to hold a normal dental implant. The difference between a Zygomatic implant and a normal dental implant is that the former is longer and is placed diagonally into the cheek bone (zygoma) to make use of the extra bone there.
