Zygomatic Implants for the Rehabilitation of Atrophic Maxillae: A Retrospective Study on Survival Rate and Biologic Complications of 206 Implants with a Minimum Follow-up of 1 Year.

CONCLUSION: In this study, the rehabilitation of atrophic maxillae through zygomatic implants was shown to be a predictable treatment, which allows a graftless approach and makes it possible to carry out immediate loading protocols, with enormous psychologic advantages for patients. Survival rates are high, and complication incidence is low. Thus, at present, zygomatic implants may be considered a reliable treatment option in the case of severe atrophic maxillae.
