Being told you're not a candidate for dental implants can be discouraging, but according to Dr. Irfan Atcha of New Teeth Chicago, it doesn't always mean there are no options left.

CHICAGO, Aug. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- For patients with severe bone loss, zygomatic implants can offer an alternative to traditional dental implants. Because they are anchored in the cheekbone rather than the upper jaw, they may be suitable for some patients who have been told they don't have enough bone for conventional implants.

One of those patients is Donna.

Donna came to New Teeth Chicago after being told she wasn't a candidate for dental implants. Following a full evaluation, Dr. Atcha recommended zygomatic implants together with All-on-X dental implants.

Today, Donna has a new set of zirconia teeth and says she can enjoy foods like nuts and other hard foods again, something she hadn't been able to do for years.

"Seeing patients smile again is the best part of what we do," said Dr. Atcha. "Donna's story is a reminder that a second opinion can sometimes open the door to treatment options patients didn't know were available."

Dr. Atcha says many patients visit the practice after hearing they have limited treatment options. Every case is different, which is why New Teeth Chicago starts with a detailed consultation and advanced 3D imaging before recommending a treatment plan. The goal is to understand each patient's needs and determine the most appropriate solution.

While zygomatic implants are not suitable for everyone, they have helped many patients with complex cases restore their smiles without believing dentures are their only choice. For those who have been told "no" elsewhere, a second opinion may provide a different perspective.

With more than 30 years of experience and 40,000+ implant cases, Dr. Atcha and the team at New Teeth Chicago specialize in All-on-4®, All-on-X®, zygomatic implants, and full-mouth smile restoration.
