What Are Zirconia Implants?
Once titanium implants was the one and only option for oral implantology. But in recent times, the search for alternatives has been growing. Why? It’s due to the rising risk of titanium allergies and people’s demand for metal-free reconstructions. Eventually, this led to dentists embracing ceramics as potential surrogates. After numerous researches zirconium dioxide (zirconia) earned its place as a potential alternative. While Titanium implants can leave a dull gray hue, the ivory coloring of Zirconia provides a more natural look.
