Benefits
Clinical excellence
We built and aim at fostering a group of professionals centered on zygomatic implants’ continuous improvement and excellence. Zygomatic implant treatment is increasing in demand due to several factors such as the increasing use of all-on-4 and related failures, aging, willingness to live better, older.
Joining the community includes entering the open conversations ongoing about cases: success, failures, opinions, and studies (cohort and RCTs) altogether. We also set up a routine online platform to follow-up on zygoma cases including all the information required by your team, checklists, sinus evaluation and composite success scores to follow-up in a harmonized manner. We centralize the network activity on the ZAGACenters.com website.
Exclusivity
We certify a single and exclusive ZAGA Center per area. The objective is two-fold:
1. Maximize the experience in the hands of 1 or 2 surgeons to enhance the success of the treatment (always respecting the right indications and patients’ requirements) and;
2. Locally differentiate the office: The office is the only ZAGA Center in its area of exclusivity and is part of a global network supporting the office. To do so, we use digital tools and the patient portal, including FAQs & testimonials. The patient portal is now available in 9 languages.
