Metal-free and tooth-coloured
Ceramic implants in Herne
Ceramic implants are made of zirconia instead of titanium. They are white, metal-free and an option for patients who prefer a holistic approach.
No metal
A solution for patients who wish to avoid metal in the mouth.
Tooth-coloured
The white implant body is an advantage where the gum line is thin.
Gum-friendly surface
Zirconia shows low plaque accumulation in clinical studies.
How the treatment works
- 1
Suitability check
Not every situation is suited to ceramic; we assess bone and bite together.
- 2
Placement
The ceramic implant is placed under anaesthetic.
- 3
Healing phase
Ceramic implants usually need a slightly longer healing period.
- 4
Restoration
A ceramic crown completes the metal-free result.
Ceramic or titanium?
Titanium remains the best-documented implant material worldwide. Ceramic implants are a well-established alternative when a metal-free restoration is important to you or when the gum is very thin in the front of the mouth.
We show you the advantages and limits of both materials for your individual situation and never push one option over the other.
