If you’ve been told you don’t qualify for implants due to jawbone loss, you may already be dealing with loose teeth, a weakened bite, or changes in facial shape.
At Smile Rescue, Dr. Jeremy Miller and Dr. Christopher Barrett believe everyone deserves access to full mouth dental implants in Louisville, KY. That’s why we offer zygomatic implants—an advanced solution performed by only a select group of highly trained dentists. With this innovative approach, we can restore your smile, function, and quality of life even when traditional implants aren’t an option.
Unlike conventional dental implants, which usually rely on four to six posts in the jawbone, zygomatic implants present an advanced alternative, especially beneficial for those grappling with pronounced bone loss, primarily in the upper jaw.
This intricate approach entails securing the implant posts to the zygomatic bones in the cheek, diverging from the customary jawbone attachment. Leveraging the formidable resilience of the zygomatic bone, we extend the possibility of full mouth dental implants, even to individuals deemed unsuitable candidates for conventional implant techniques.
Zygomatic implants may sound complex, but they’re usually completed in a single surgery—and often eliminate the need for bone grafting. This lets us deliver a functional, beautiful smile much faster than traditional methods.
Your visit at Smile Rescue begins with a full exam and CBCT scan to map your bone, nerves, and sinuses for precise planning. Sedation is available to keep you relaxed throughout the procedure.
During surgery, implants are placed in pre-planned positions for maximum stability, and you’ll leave with a natural-looking temporary smile the same day. Over the next 3–6 months, the implants integrate with your zygomatic bone. Once healed, you’ll receive your permanent restoration.
Patients choosing zygomatic implants in Louisville, KY enjoy long-lasting functional and aesthetic results—often for life.
Transnasal dental implants are a cutting-edge dental solution that involves the placement of dental implants through the nasal cavity. This innovative technique offers a minimally invasive alternative if you have limited bone structure in the upper jaw, eliminating the need for traditional surgery through the gums. By accessing the nasal passage, transnasal dental implants provide a unique approach to anchor dental restorations, securely offering improved stability and functionality.
Pterygoid implants are specialized dental implants designed to address complex cases of tooth loss and limited bone density in the posterior upper jaw. Unlike traditional implants that rely solely on the jawbone for support, pterygoid implants anchor into the pterygoid bone, a dense area near the back of the mouth. This innovative technique enables stable and secure implant placement, offering a viable solution if you may not be a suitable candidate for conventional implant methods.
Trans-sinus implants are advanced dental implants specifically designed to address tooth loss in the posterior upper jaw, where bone density may be insufficient. This technique involves placing implants through the maxillary sinus, creating a secure foundation for dental restorations. By utilizing the sinus area for implant placement, trans-sinus implants offer a unique solution that often eliminates the need for additional bone grafting procedures, allowing patients to enjoy restored oral function and aesthetics.
