Making a Difference
Many professionals choose to insert dental implants composed of titanium. This metal is commonly used for medical implants, as it is light-weight and durable. Furthermore, it is biocompatible, thus the substance naturally and securely assimilates with the encompassing natural tissues.
We utilize a specific type of zirconia as a non-metallic alternative to titanium dental implants. Zirconia, like titanium, is a biocompatible substance. However, it boasts numerous advantages over titanium. This dental ceramic is:
• Stronger than titanium
• Suitable for patients with metal sensitivities
• Helps restore and maintain an attractive, natural gum shape
• Supports optimal aesthetics, even for patients with receding gums
• A safe and healthy alternative for patients who experienced titanium implant failure or allergic reactions
• Can be placed immediately after removal of damaged teeth (immediate dental implants)
• One-piece design that does not require a separate abutment
• Faster treatment process with long-term durability and fewer components that can weaken over time
• White in color for the most natural, tooth-like appearance
• Remains aesthetically pleasing even as gums thin or recede
• Conservative approach that preserves healthy natural tissues
• Resistant to corrosion and oxidation, unlike metal implants
• Less likely to attract bacteria compared to metal alternatives
• Gentle on surrounding gums, with very low risk of bleeding or inflammation
Dr. Ravon has carefully chosen what are considered “premium” zirconia implants known as CeraRoot. We are eager to further discuss our holistic approach to the safe and effective replacement of your teeth and restoration of your smile.
