Titanium vs Metal Free Implants

Q: What are the benefits of metal free dental implants?

There are many benefits to getting metal free dental implants. They are allergy safe, corrosion free, biocompatible, extremely strong in their material, and they are white in color. The white color adds to the aesthetic of the look once the implants are placed. There will be no metal color showing through.

Q: Are metal-free implants safe?

Due to their non-corrosive and nonallergic properties, zirconia (metal-free) implants are extremely safe and beneficial. Additionally, they are strong and long-lasting.

Q: Are titanium dental implants safe?

Titanium is one of the most widely used materials for dental implant posts. The titanium alloy material is very durable and can be trusted to last for years without becoming broken or damaged. Titanium posts are surgically placed inside the jaw and serve as the base for an artificial tooth. After the posts are placed, an abutment and artificial tooth are then used to provide a full replacement tooth to the patient. The risks involved in the use of titanium implants would be an allergy to titanium and possibility of corrosion.

Q: What are the differences between titanium and metal-free?

The main difference between titanium and metal-free implants is the material make-up of each implant. Metal-free dental implants are made of a ceramic material, whereas, titanium implants are made of titanium alloy (a combination of a few metals). Additionally, metal-free implants are known to have aesthetic benefits. Their white color adds to the aesthetic of the smile. Metal-free implants are less likely to cause allergic reactions in comparison to titanium implants. Both implant types are an excellent and permanent means of tooth replacement by way of implants.

Q: What is a metal free dental implant?

Metal free dental implants are made without metal material. Metal free dental implants are made from Zirconia, which is ceramic material with biocompatibility and aesthetic advantages. This makes metal free dental implants a great alternative to traditional titanium implants.

Q: Can You Get Dental Implants Without Metal?

A zirconia tooth implant is a non-metal alternative to traditional titanium dental implants. Instead of metal, zirconia offers a ceramic choice that is more natural-looking and just as strong and durable as conventional implants. These implants can be used in the same way as titanium implants.

Q: Why is titanium used in dental implants?

Titanium dental implants that osseointegrate can stay in place for 30 years or more. Titanium belongs to the group of corrosion-resistant alloys. Titanium resists corrosion by forming a protective layer of titanium dioxide that makes it hard for water and chemicals to penetrate.

Q: Are All On 4 dental implants removable?

All On 4 dental implants are fixed implants, meaning they are non-removable. They are immediately functional and do not come in and out like a traditional denture. They are secure in your mouth and mimic that of your natural set of teeth.

Q: How long do All-On-Four dental implants last?

All-On-Four dental implants are proven to last up to 20 years or more with the proper care and good oral hygiene habits.

Q: What are All-On-4 dental implants?

All On 4 dental implants are a permanent smile restoration solution that requires very few dental implants. The All-On-Four™ procedure is a highly durable, highly effective dental implant procedure that secures your brand new set of teeth onto both the top or bottom jaw with just four dental implants on each arch.

A PERMANENT SMILE RESTORATION SOLUTION

While dentures have always been an effective means to restoring the functionality of a patient’s teeth, the world of dentistry has welcomed a more effective, longer-lasting means to full mouth reconstruction. Not to mention, it has been welcomed with much success. The All-On-Four™ procedure is a highly durable, highly effective dental implant procedure. The All-On-4™ procedure secures your brand new teeth onto both the top and/or bottom jaw with four implants on each arch, doing away with the uncomfortable slip and slide of dentures.

Typically, up to ten implants would be needed to guarantee sustainable, durable teeth. Thanks to new and innovative dental technology, fewer implants are required for more effective results. This technology discovered that setting implants at a 45-degree angle serves to increase their strength drastically.

In addition, we allow our patients to select the implant material of their choice. Depending on their preference, they will choose titanium implants or metal-free implants. What is the difference between titanium implants and metal-free, Zirconia implants? We will explain!

Titanium Implants Vs.
Metal-Free Implants

Today more than ever before, people have been looking into the most holistic medical treatments and procedures. This demand for the most organic approach has been well-received and thus implemented in the dental world.

Titanium implants have permanently secured the All-On-Four™ fixed bridges to the top and/or bottom arches of the mouth for many years. They effectively do so, leaving each patient with a permanent and long-lasting smile.

Metal-free implants, however, are known to have added benefits. They are made up of a highly durable, white material. In addition to their strength, the hue of the zirconia implant allows for a very aesthetically pleasing look. The white color completely eliminates the unsightliness of metal showing through the teeth. Zirconia implants are also bio-compatible and take well to the surrounding bone. They even promote the growth of the surrounding bone and are guaranteed never to deteriorate!
