Zygomatic Implant Treatment in Turkey: Cost, Procedure & Patient Reviews
Zygomatic implants are longer dental implants anchored into the cheekbone (the zygoma) rather than the upper jaw. For UK and Irish patients who have been told they need bone grafting or a sinus lift before implants are possible, zygomatics offer an alternative route that often avoids graft surgery entirely, and delivers fixed teeth in a single surgical visit.
When zygomatic implants are the right answer
The upper jaw needs a certain amount of vertical bone for a standard implant to anchor into. After years of upper tooth loss, long-term dentures or significant bone resorption, that bone often disappears. Standard implants then become impossible without extensive grafting or sinus lifting. Zygomatic implants bypass the problem: the implant is longer and anchors directly into the dense cheekbone, which is not affected by tooth loss. A skilled specialist can place a full upper arch of fixed teeth on four zygomatic implants in a single surgery.
Zygomatic Implant Treatment Before & After in Turkey
Who benefits most from zygomatic implants
UK and Irish patients who travel for zygomatic treatment typically fall into one of three groups: long-term denture wearers whose upper jaw has resorbed significantly, patients who have already been quoted multiple bone graft surgeries in the UK and want to avoid them, and patients where a previous upper implant case has failed due to insufficient bone. For these cases a zygomatic plan is often the fastest route to fixed teeth.
How the procedure works
Zygomatic implant surgery is a specialist procedure, always carried out by a surgeon trained specifically in the zygomatic technique. After a detailed CBCT 3D scan, the implants are placed in one surgical session under local anaesthesia with sedation. Unlike standard implants, zygomatics can often be immediately loaded — meaning a fixed temporary bridge is fitted the same day or within 48 hours. You leave Antalya with fixed teeth, not dentures.
Zygomatic Implant Treatment Patient Reviews from the UK & Ireland
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 100% Recommend – An Absolute 5-Star Experience! If you are thinking about getting your teeth done, look no further than Amazing Smile Turkey Antalya. My entire experience with them was flawless from start to finish. The logistics were incredibly smooth. I was greeted right at the airport and transferred to a stunning hotel right near the beach in Antalya. The itinerary was fast, efficient, and professionally handled: Monday: Landed and settled into the gorgeous hotel. Tuesday: Had my initial X-rays taken. Wednesday: The big day. I had all teeth removed, a bone graft, a sinus lift, and a full All-on-6 (top and bottom) procedure. Thursday: Had my temporary teeth fitted. Friday: Flew back home! To undergo that much dental work—including extractions, a bone graft, and a sinus lift—and come out with no bruising and very little pain is a testament to the incredible skill of the team. I have nothing but praise for Onur and Batu. These guys were absolutely amazing throughout the whole experience. They made me feel comfortable, kept me informed, and honestly could not have been more helpful. An amazing clinic, a beautiful location, and a top-tier team. It is definitely worth the visit. 100% recommended!
Very professional from initial consultation then to first procedure And the final results are great for my confidence and feeling Thanks to an amazing team Especially Onur,Tugce,Batu
Had zirconium crowns fitted. Really happy with the results. The team at AST are brilliant from the shuttle driver to the dentists & owners. Everything ran smoothly - and they keep you up to date every step of the way. If you're thinking about getting your teeth sorted these guys are real perfectionists. You wont leave disappointed
I would personally like to not only thank the dentist and surgeons, but also onur and Jon, the translator batu and the receptionist each person made my experience what it was. The care and treatment was next level for me. From start to finish I was more than looked after 24 hours I was able to contact any of these with questions even down to translating information in the pharmacy when my partner needed medication whilst we was over here. I really have made friends for life treated like family which I loved thabk you so much AMAZING SMILE you have made me happy when I look in the mirror for the first time in over 20 years
All the staff are amazing and help in anyway they can I would recommend AMAZING SMILE TURKEY to everyone and family thank you so much to you all
My journey started with a meeting with Oj and Can in Belfast. Everything was organized incredibly smoothly! ✨ Upon arriving in Turkey, driver Kadir greeted me with a big smile and great warmth. He drove me from the hotel to the clinic and back every time – always on time, smiling and friendly 😊 At the clinic, I received a warm welcome from Can and Oj. I also met Batu, who always welcomed me and saw me off – a very friendly guy! I got to know the entire team and I can honestly say that I was treated like a friend, or even like a family member ❤️ A huge thank you to my wonderful dentist Gamze and nurse Humeyra! 🙏 Gamze is an outstanding specialist in her field. She works until she achieves perfection – and that perfection is my new smile! 😁✨ Big respect to the clinic owner for putting together such an amazing and warm team. I highly recommend Amazing Smile Turkey to anyone who needs a new smile or even the smallest dental treatment! 💯
Amazing service from day 1. Very caring and great communication throughout. Onur is there 24/7 to help with any problems at all and always explains in good detail. Best service in Antalya and amazing results. Would highly recommend 5*+
Initially, My wife and I had a meeting in Leeds. We found Onur and the team very friendly and knowledgeable. She was advised that 'all on 6 was the best option for top and crowns to match for bottom. Everything was explained and the price was affordable(20k cheaper than uk) so we arranged our first visit. On arrival, we were picked up at airport and taken to our hotel. We were given pick up times and were always picked up on time. Treatment started the following day, impressions were taken and some teeth extracted. Bone grafting and sinus lift were necessary. This process was pain free thanks to injections, pain killers were prescribed for her comfort over the next few days. We returned for implants and crowns to be fixed. Time was taken to reassure her throughout the whole process and the whole team were very friendly and approachable the whole time. Onur was available and willing to talk and explain everything during the whole process. The price given at initial meeting in Leeds didn't change, which I know isn't the case at some of the other dentists in Turkey. She now does have an amazing, natural looking smile and is enjoying eating things she hasn't been able to for some time. We were left feeling like friends rather than clients. Would 100% recommend Amazing Smile Turkey.
From start to finish the service was second to none really professional company looked after us really well more than happy with my new teeth we had the pleasure of having Onur as our representative he treated us like family brought us every where we needed to go the doctors were top class service would highly recommend🦷🇹🇷
Onur very helpful, the service was very professional
Treatment timeline and trip length
Most zygomatic cases follow a single-trip or abbreviated two-trip protocol. A single-trip plan is 7–10 days in Antalya: surgery, immediate temporary bridge, healing monitoring, final bridge fitting if clinically safe. A two-trip plan is 7 days for surgery and temporary, then 5–7 days 3–6 months later for the final permanent bridge. Your specific timeline is confirmed on your written plan before you travel.

Why zygomatic is done abroad more often than in the UK
Zygomatic implantology is a specialist sub-field with limited NHS provision and a smaller pool of trained private surgeons in the UK. Turkey, and specifically Antalya, has built up significant zygomatic experience because of the volume of international patients who need the technique. Amazing Smile Turkey’s zygomatic cases are always placed by a surgeon with dedicated training and a substantial case record in this specific technique.
