What Is Zirconium Implants?
Zirconium Implants is tooth-coloured dental implants made from biocompatible zirconium metal, approved by the FDA. They serve as artificial tooth roots surgically implanted into the jawbone to replace missing or damaged teeth. Unlike traditional titanium implants, Zirconium Implants offer similar durability and long-term function with a more natural tooth-like appearance. They are well-tolerated by the body and less likely to cause allergic reactions or immune responses, making them an excellent alternative for patients with metal sensitivities or aesthetic concerns.
How It Works
Zirconium Implants begins with a consultation to evaluate the patient's oral health and suitability. During surgery, a zirconium post is implanted into the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone through a process called osseointegration.
After healing, a zirconium dental crown is attached to the implant post to restore full tooth function and appearance. The tooth-coloured dental implant blends seamlessly with natural teeth, especially beneficial for front teeth restorations. The entire process involves precise surgical techniques and high-quality materials to ensure durability and comfort.

FAQ
Q1: How long do Zirconium Implants last?
A1: With proper care and oral hygiene, Zirconium Implants can last 10 to 15 years or more. Their longevity depends on factors like lifestyle, dental habits, and regular dental visits.
Q2: Which is better, Titanium Implants or Zirconium Implants?
A2: Both are effective. Titanium Implants have a longer track record and are slightly more durable, while Zirconium Implants are preferred for those with metal sensitivities or aesthetic concerns due to their tooth-coloured appearance.
Q3: Do Zirconium Implants crack?
A3: Zirconium is strong and biocompatible, but it can be more brittle than titanium. Although rare, cracking may occur under extreme pressure or poor placement. Proper care minimizes the risk.
Q4: Can Zirconium Implants get infected?
