As a Toronto biological dental clinic, we offer ceramic dental implants as an alternative solution to traditional metal dental implants. At Junction Family Dental we favour the ceramic option for several reasons due to our wholistic approach to oral care.
Ceramic implants are made from zirconia and oxygen, which when combined becomes a metal free material. Many people have metal sensitivities as well as metal allergies and ceramic is an amazing alternative for those wanting to avoid tissue inflammation around the gums. Ceramic implants are hypoallergenic as well as biocompatible with your natural bone tissue. Because of its biocompatibility with bone cells, gums are able to heal much easier around ceramic implants than titanium. Ceramic implants are the perfect option for a seamless integration with the rest of your smile.
Unfortunately with titanium (metal) implants you may notice the metallic/grayish colour showing through thin gum tissue and it is common for an unpleasant metal colour to form around the gums when these implants are placed. Alternatively, ceramic implants hide well even under receded gums because of their naturally white colour.
Besides being the better alternative aesthetic and comfort-wise over titanium, as a wholistic dentistry we choose ceramic for its strength and one-piece functionality as well as its resistance towards corrosion. Because zirconia is a non-conductive material, we appreciate that it does not interfere with the body’s meridian energy pathways.
A ceramic dental implant provides the most aesthetically natural option for tooth replacement with many benefits over metal implants. At Junction Family Dental we believe that dental implants should not be noticeable as replacement teeth. If you decide to make an investment to get dental implants, we understand that our patients want them to look as natural as possible! There’s no question that a main goal of tooth replacement should be to have a natural and aesthetically pleasing outcome. This is why we also choose the ceramic alternative.
Ceramic dental implants are the more holistic alternative that we love here at our biological dentistry. They provide the wholistic approach to oral restoration that we pride ourselves in while also being the most natural-looking option.
Now that you understand the benefits of choosing ceramic dental implants over metal, it’s now time to book your appointment at Junction Family Dental in Toronto and see what an incredible difference ceramic dental implants can do for you and your smile!
