Zygomatic Implants from Glasgow | India Cost, Glasgow Comparison
- Zygomatic implants anchor in the zygomatic bone (cheekbone) rather than the jaw, used when severe maxillary bone loss makes conventional implant placement impossible without extensive grafting.
The implants (42–52mm) bypass the maxillary sinus and engage the dense cortical bone of the cheekbone, enabling same-day fixed prosthesis delivery without the 6–12 month grafting timeline.
Zygomatic Implants from Glasgow, Why India?

> Zygomatic implants for both arches in Glasgow cost £54,000–£78,000 at specialist practices. At Stunning Dentistry, the same treatment costs £14,000–£20,000. After flights and accommodation, most Glasgow patients save £34,000–£58,000.

The implants (42–52mm) bypass the maxillary sinus and engage the dense cortical bone of the cheekbone, enabling same-day fixed prosthesis delivery without the 6–12 month grafting timeline.
Candidacy is determined by 3D CBCT: typically indicated for Cawood-Howell Class V–VI maxillary atrophy where residual alveolar bone is insufficient for standard implants. Stunning Dentistry uses the ZAGA (Zygomatic Anatomy-Guided Approach) protocol, the most documented zygomatic technique in current literature. NHS Scotland does not fund zygomatic or any other implant treatment.

People Also Ask
How much do zygomatic implants cost in Glasgow?
Both arches at Glasgow specialists: £54,000–£78,000. NHS Scotland does not fund implants.
Do zygomatic implants need bone grafting?
No, that is the primary advantage. They bypass the maxillary sinus and anchor in the cheekbone, eliminating grafting and the associated healing interval.
Do I need two trips?
Yes for zygomatic cases. The surgical visit is 12–14 days; a second 4–6-day visit at 6 months delivers the definitive prosthesis.
Am I a candidate?
Candidacy requires 3D CBCT assessment. Upload your scans for a remote evaluation before travelling.
