Zygomatic implant in SmileBox Dental Clinic - Thonglor, Sukhumvit Branch

Zygomatic implants at SmileBox Dental Clinic in Bangkok, Thailand, provide a solution for patients with severe bone loss who cannot receive standard implants. This specialized procedure is performed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons using a fully digital workflow to help restore dental function. The clinic is SHA Plus+ certified and manages 1,600+ dental patients every year.

Advanced Surgical Expertise

Complex implant surgeries are led by Dr. Suphachai Suphangul, an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon. Dr. Suphachai Suphangul completed a Fellowship in Implant Dentistry at Loma Linda University in the USA. He is also an Associate Fellow of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry. The medical team includes Dr. Palawat Laoharungpisit and Dr. Vishal Sehgal, who specializes in prosthodontics and dentures.

Digital Planning and Materials

The clinic uses a fully digital implant system for every step of the process. This starts with precise 3D planning and ends with guided surgical execution. This method helps the surgeon place implants accurately in challenging anatomy. Patients can choose from several high-grade titanium implant brands, including Straumann, Osstem, and Zimmer. These materials integrate with the bone through a natural process called osseointegration.

Treatment Process and Recovery

The surgery for a single implant typically takes between 30 and 45 minutes. The full treatment structure is designed for efficiency, requiring only three visits to Bangkok. After the initial surgery, the jaw needs about 2 to 3 months to heal. Once healing is finished, the final crown is completed in just 4 to 5 days. The clinic uses digital scans instead of traditional molds to create the final prosthetic.

Patient Comfort and Safety

SmileBox is the first clinic in Thailand to use Oculus virtual reality to help patients manage dental anxiety. The facility features six treatment rooms and a team of 40+ multilingual dental professionals. Patients receive a lifetime warranty on the implant fixture and abutment. A two-year warranty is provided for zirconia crowns. Every patient also receives an implant passport containing the model, size, and lot number of their hardware.
