Planning
CT-based zygomatic bone assessment confirms anchorage path and required implant length.
i-Fix Clinical planning scenario · Severe Atrophy
Severe maxillary atrophy, graftless anchorage
Zygomatic anchorage for atrophic maxilla cases that would otherwise need major grafting.
ZE SeriesSeries used
This is a clinical planning scenario — how implant geometry and platform map to this category of case — not a documented individual patient record. Real, consented case documentation lives in Before / After.
01 The clinical challenge
What this case type
is up against.
Severe maxillary atrophy where there isn’t enough native alveolar bone for conventional implants, and the alternative is an extended bone-grafting and healing timeline before any implant can be placed.
02 The implant solution
Why ZE Series
fits this case.
The ZE Series (i-Fix Zygon) anchors in the zygomatic bone instead of the atrophic ridge, in lengths from 30–62.5 mm with a 55° angulated head — built specifically to avoid the grafting stage and support an immediate fixed provisional.

Planning to
restoration.
A general implant workflow for this case type — individual timelines vary by patient and clinician judgment.
Imaging
Surgical guide planning maps the trajectory from the alveolar crest into the zygomatic body.
Surgery
Placement using the dedicated Smart Surgical Kit drilling sequence for the zygomatic platform.
Restoration
Multicortical anchorage is typically stable enough to support a fixed provisional prosthesis immediately.

05 Key takeaways
What to remember
about this case type.
- Atrophic or graft-deficient maxilla
- Cases avoiding bone-grafting procedures
- Immediate fixed provisional via multicortical anchorage
