Our Treatment

Ceramic Implant

The loss of a tooth could be caused from many different reasons: tooth decay, infection, gum disease, trauma, or removal of an impacted tooth.

Ceramic implants are an innovative type of dental implant made from a biocompatible material called zirconia. Unlike traditional implants made of titanium, ceramic implants offer a metal-free alternative for replacing missing teeth. They are white or tooth-coloured, resembling the natural color of teeth, which can enhance the aesthetics of your smile. Dental By Design is one of the few clinics in the UK offering this type of treatment.

Why Choose Ceramic Implants Over Titanium?

Compared to titanium implants, ceramic implants offer several unique advantages:

Aesthetic Appeal

Ceramic implants are white or tooth-colored, blending seamlessly with your natural teeth. In contrast, titanium implants are metallic and may create a visible contrast against your natural teeth, particularly if your gums are thin.

Strength and Durability

Ceramic implants are known for their strength and durability, similar to titanium implants. They provide a stable foundation for replacement teeth and can withstand the forces of chewing and biting.

Biocompatibility

Zirconia, the material used for ceramic implants, is hypoallergenic and well-tolerated by the body. This reduces the risk of allergic reactions or sensitivity, which can sometimes occur with titanium implants.

Gum Health

Some studies suggest that ceramic implants may promote healthier gum tissue compared to titanium implants. This can contribute to better long-term oral health outcomes.

Thermal Insulation

Ceramic implants do not conduct heat or cold as much as metal implants. This characteristic can provide a more comfortable experience, especially for patients with sensitive teeth or gums.

Restoration

Initial Consultation

Not all dental practices offer ceramic implants, so it’s essential to find a qualified provider with experience in this type of restoration.

Treatment Planning

Based on your oral health needs and aesthetic goals, a personalized treatment plan is created. This plan includes determining the number of implants needed and their optimal placement.

Implant Placement

During the procedure, local anesthesia is used to numb the area. The ceramic implants are surgically placed into your jawbone, where they will serve as artificial tooth roots.

Healing Period

After the implant is placed, there is a healing period during which the implant integrates with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration. This period can last a few months.

Restoration

Once the implant has fully integrated, your dentist will place a custom-made permanent crown on the implant. This crown is designed to match your natural teeth in colour, shape, and size.

After Care

Oral Hygiene

Keep the area clean by brushing and flossing as directed by your dentist.

Diet

Avoid hard, chewy, or sticky foods during the healing period to ensure the implant remains stable.

Follow-Up Visits

Keep the area clean by brushing and flossing as directed by your dentist.

Benefits

  • Natural Appearance: Ceramic implants blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, enhancing the overall aesthetics of your smile.
  • Biocompatibility: Zirconia is well-tolerated by the body, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or sensitivity.
  • Strength and Durability: Ceramic implants provide a strong and stable foundation for replacement teeth, supporting normal chewing and speaking functions.
  • Potential for Improved Gum Health: Some patients experience improved gum tissue health with ceramic implants compared to titanium implants.

Conclusion

Ceramic implants provide a metal-free, aesthetically pleasing solution for replacing missing teeth. They offer unique advantages such as natural appearance, biocompatibility, and potential benefits for gum health. If you value aesthetics and prefer a metal-free option, ceramic implants may be a suitable choice for restoring your smile. Our team can provide personalized recommendations based on your oral health needs and aesthetic preferences.

Considerations

Cost

Ceramic implants may be more expensive than titanium implants due to the materials and technology involved.

Availability

Not all dental practices offer ceramic implants, so it’s essential to find a qualified provider with experience in this type of restoration.
