Dear Doctor, Ceramic dental implants have been first tested in the 1960s – in those early days, alumina was the chosen material and sometimes caused mixed clinical results. Nowadays, and not least thanks to the introduction of zirconia as the best suited material for ceramic implants, these technical shortcomings are apparently overcome, and more and more clinicians worldwide use ceramic dental implants with excellent results. The main driver of their increasing diffusion is patient request – and what could be a better stimulus than that for a modern clinician? So the application of ceramic...

In the work at hand, clinical results of dental screw implants = n) at 93 %. When compared with similar studies to titanium Ceramic implants combined with all-ceramic superstructures In addition, traditional titanium implants can achieve excellent made of zirconium oxide (type Z 3, Z-SYSTEMS AG) have been implants, zirconium implants do comparably well in the two create a perfect red-white aesthetic, offering care at...

Bacterial adhesion on commercially pure titanium and zirconium oxide disks: an in vivo human study Scarano A, Piattelli M, Caputi S, Favero GA, Piattelli A titanium (control) and zirconium oxide (test) disks were glued Little is known about the mechanisms of bacterial interaction to the buccal aspect of each device. The surface roughness of with implant materials in the oral cavity. A correlation between titanium and test specimens was similar. After 24 hours, all disks plaque accumulation and progressive bone loss around were removed and processed for scanning electron microscopy, implants...
