What is a Zirconium implant?
An implant is an artificial root which we use to replace teeth, structures or complex prostheses, but at the end of the day its function is artificial root.
What are the advantages of Zirconium implants?
Zirconium implants are not made of metal and since there is no metal, people with sensitivities or allergies to normal implants do not have reactions.
They also have a white color so they are more aesthetic.
How are Zirconium implants placed?
They are placed in the same way as a Titanium implant; that is, a small hole is made (a small surgery) in which the implants are placed and over the crown.
Ideal patients for this type of implant:
The patient must have a good state of health, a good predisposition, apart from having a sufficient bone level and bone volume.
Patients who have implants have different pathologies. From patients with periodontal diseases who have lost all their teeth, patients with agenesis that is an absence of their teeth ...
In addition, the aesthetics and chewing function can be recomposed with the implants.
How is the postoperative?
Normally the results can be obtained the same day since we use what is called immediate loading. But the complete healing happens after three or six months after which the patient goes with his total denture.
Normally the postoperative period is simple and there are usually small inflammations and discomforts but with small care and precautions it is quite controllable.
How is the maintenance of Zirconium implants?
The implants are cleaned in a normal way as the other teeth, but sometimes we use different techniques such as small irrigators, dental floss or interproximal brushes. Anyway, the most important thing is the annual maintenance at the Clinic.
