Zirconia Implants

Understanding Zirconia Implants

Dental implant patients are concerned about materials that come into contact with their bodies. It’s important to know and understand the makeup of dental implants. Oral surgeons want to use the healthiest type of implant that will be the least reactive and least toxic to the patient. Some types of dental implants are stronger and have higher success ratings than others.

A Metal-Free Option

Zirconia implants are a type of dental implant that has been used since the 1960s. Traditional titanium implants have a long-term success rate of 94-97%, but they have been known to be associated with interference with autoimmune disease and cause a reaction in patients who are allergic to titanium. Zirconia implants are a metal-free ceramic alternative to titanium and is inserted the same way as a traditional titanium implant.

Benefits of Zirconia Implants

Benefits

If you have a known titanium allergy or are concerned with possible allergic reactions associated with a titanium implant, a zirconia implant could be right for you. Many patients claim that these types of implants often look more natural than traditional titanium ones. Since they are made of a non-metal white material, they offer all of the advantages of a traditional dental implant while eliminating the risk of a metal allergic reaction.
