Zirconia Dental Implants: The Biologic Tooth Replacement Option in Houston, TX
Dental implants have long since been the preferred method for replacing one or more missing teeth. With a turn to a more holistic and whole-body approach to healthcare, specifically within dentistry, zirconia dental implants rise to the top. Made of hypoallergenic materials that both resist high-impact pressure and are highly aesthetic, they have become the preferred choice for health-conscious dentists and patients alike. Zirconia dental implants (also known as ceramic implants) provide all the same benefits of traditional titanium implants, but offer a more natural and holistic alternative that many patients are looking for. Choosing ceramic implants from our board-certified periodontist, Dr. Robert Friedberg, is your best choice if you desire to replace your missing teeth with non-metal solutions!
The advantages of all-natural tooth replacement:
Zirconia dental implants from our Houston, TX periodontist have all the same benefits of traditional titanium implants, with the advantage of being the all-natural alternative. For many patients, especially those who have a titanium allergy, this means being able to receive a permanent tooth replacement without having to compromise a holistic mindset toward dentistry or their overall health. Zirconia dental implants provide the following advantages:
Health – zirconia dental implants are made of hypoallergenic, biocompatible, and non-corrosive materials. Similarly, their one- or two-part structure minimizes the risk for gum irritation or infection and reduces the chance of adverse reactions after placement.
Aesthetics – zirconia implants are made from white ceramic materials instead of the dramatic silver color of titanium. Along with their naturally aesthetic dental crowns, the white implant posts harmonize better with the pink gum tissue.
Strength – zirconia dental implants are made from incredibly strong, high-impact resistant ceramic, helping them remain structurally sound long-term. They remain strong, resisting heat, fracture, and the natural forces of biting and chewing.
