What is it indicated for?

Southern Implants Zygomatic System Standard implants, Zygan (narrow apex) implants, and Oncology implants are intended to be implanted in the upper jaw arch to provide support for fixed or removable dental prostheses in patients with partially or fully edentulous maxillae. All implants are appropriate for immediate loading when good primary stability is achieved and with appropriate occlusal loading.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
