Background: The rehabilitation of an atrophic maxilla is a challenge for oral and maxillofacial surgeon. Hence; we planned the present study to assess the predictability of norismedical zygomatic dental implants following extramaxillary approach. Materials & methods: The present study was conducted for assessing the predictability of norismedical zygomatic dental implants following extramaxillary approach. A total of 20 patients were included in the present study that was scheduled to undergo zygomatic dental implants. Pre-operative hematological assessment of all the patients was carried out one day before the placement of dental implants. norismedical zygomatic dental implants following extramaxillary approach. Follow-up records of all the patients were maintained for assessing the prognosis of dental implants. Results:Failure of dental implant was present only in a single male patient, which manifested in the form of superficial wound infection. Rest all the 19 cases had excellent prognosis. So the success rate of dental implants in our study was 95 percent. Conclusion: Implants placed with extramaxillary approach bearing smooth surface in contact with maxillary wall e.g. norismedical zygomatic implants have excellent prognosis.
Key words: Extramaxillary, Implant, Zygomatic.
