What are Zirconium Implants?

Not long ago, dental implants were a highly acclaimed novel technique. Now, this tooth implant option is commonplace and more accessible to the general public. Research within the field of dental materials has once again revolutionized the field of dental implantology with the introduction of a new material, zirconium.

Metal-free implants, also known as zirconium or all-ceramic implants, are made of zirconia dioxide, commonly referred to as simply, Zirconium. Zirconium is a naturally occurring, extremely hard, metal-free substance. It is resistant against acids and corrosion. Just as importantly, it is biocompatible which means no allergic reactions should be expected.

These dental implants enable Denver patients who currently experience allergic reactions to avoid any allergies with zirconium-based implants. Until recently, Zirconium implants have only been available in Europe; however, now this tooth implant option is FDA approved and available in the United States.

See the highlighted benefits of Zirconium Implants below, or schedule a consultation with us to see if they are the right option for you!

Coloring

Zirconium Implants offer an off-white, tooth-colored and non-metallic alternative to more traditional implants, which are typically made from titanium or other metals.

Body Friendly

Zirconia Dioxide is a ceramic material that, in addition to mimicking the coloring of teeth and bones, also has the benefit of being more compatible with and well-tolerated by your body. This minimizes the risks of having either an allergic reaction or general sensitivity as can be found in more common metallic implants.

Durable

Zirconium implants are just as durable as titanium, and comfortably withstand daily wear from chewing and talking. Being non-metallic means they are also resistant to corrosion, making them a long term solution for missing teeth.
