Unilateral Zygoma Augmentation PEEK

Patients requiring zygomatic augmentation, for example those with uni lateral zygomatic facial asymmetry resulting from either trauma or congenital defects, would be helped best with a patient specific implant made to match their anatomy. Using mirroring, we can restore facial symmetry, taking the facial nerve into account. The PEEK implant is fixated with pre-planned sunken screws. Optionally the PEEK implant can be modified interoperatively with high-speed burrs.

 

Bilateral Zygoma Augmentation PEEK

Patients requiring bilateral zygomatic facial augmentation (resulting from either trauma or congenital defects), would be helped best with two patient specific implants made to match their anatomy. Since mirroring can’t be used, we identify a matching skull from our database and use it as a starting point in the design of the bilateral zygoma implants. The PEEK implants are fixated with pre-planned sunken screws. Optionally the PEEK implants can be modified interoperatively with high-speed burrs.

Zygoma Augmentation Titanium

Whereas PEEK is currently the material of choice for zygomatic augmentations (the color matches that of the skin and it can be modified interoperatively), it is also possible to choose Titanium for selected cases.
