Traditional dental implants have been widely accepted as the “gold standard” of tooth replacement options for decades. However, some patients are concerned that the post and abutment are comprised of titanium, a metal material, and want a more natural alternative.
Thankfully, titanium implants are no longer your only option. Today, CeraRoot ceramic dental implants provide a strong, aesthetic alternative to traditional implants that leave many patients satisfied with the long-term results of a metal-free solution.
Are you missing teeth, but concerned about having metal in your mouth or have allergies or sensitives to this material? CeraRoot ceramic dental implants may be right for you!
As one of the few dentists in Florida specially trained and certified to offer CeraRoot implants, Dr. Nickelice Brand is pleased to offer this solution at our Ocala, FL practice and welcomes patients looking for tooth replacement options that are natural and metal-free.
CeraRoot dental implants are a unique type of implant that uses full ceramic for both the dental implant itself as well as the restoration. The result is a tooth replacement system that looks as natural as possible while it also restores full function.
With a traditional dental implant, the metal implant is placed deep under the gum to disguise the metal color. This is also where the ceramic restoration is connected via an abutment, but since it is located below the gum line, it can be more difficult to clean.
Our patients request CeraRoot dental implants primarily because they are a metal-free alternative. However, ceramic dental implants have advantages that go beyond the health components.
Ceramic is a highly aesthetic material that mimics the natural color and translucency of teeth. This means that they will blend aesthetically into the gum tissue (if it is thinner naturally) and with your existing teeth.
More technically, ceramic dental implants are a single unit, meaning the implant post and the abutment used to connect the post to the dental crown is one piece. This greatly reduces the risk for bacteria to accumulate and cause an infection in the gum tissue around the post.
In addition, the biocompatibility of ceramic encourages better integration with your jaw bone and will not corrode over time.
Overall, if you are looking for a solution that is all-natural, aesthetic, and just as strong as titanium, CeraRoot ceramic dental implants are the ideal option!
The difference of using CeraRoot instead of traditional dental implant technology has to do with the unique ceramic implant root. CeraRoot implants are placed at the gum level, which is beneficial for cleanliness and the health of the gum and bone; and because the implant is white, there need be no concern about the metal discoloring the gum.
CeraRoot implants are made from zirconia: a biocompatible, ceramic material that assimilates well into the bone. CeraRoot implants are the perfect choice for people who have a metal allergy, because zirconia implants are hypoallergenic. Zirconia is also bio-inert and does not corrode.
