Zygomatic vs Pterygoid vs Basal Dental Implants in Patna

Choosing the Right Implant Solution for Severe Bone Loss & Full-Mouth Rehabilitation

Dental implants have revolutionized tooth replacement, but patients with severe jawbone loss often face challenges with conventional implants. In such cases, zygomatic, pterygoid, and basal implants offer advanced solutions that bypass bone grafting and allow faster recovery with long-term success.

At Magadh Oro Dental Clinic, Patna, our implant experts — Dr. Abhishek Kumar and Dr. Ritesh Vatsa — specialize in advanced implantology techniques, offering customized treatments based on your bone structure, needs, and goals.
