Looking for a dental solution that aligns with your holistic health values? Zirconia implants could be the perfect choice for you. These innovative ceramic implants are transforming the way we approach tooth replacement by offering a biocompatible, metal-free alternative that works in harmony with your body.
Unlike conventional metal implants, zirconia implants are made from advanced ceramic materials designed to support natural healing. They minimize the risk of inflammation or allergic responses, making them a great option for those seeking a gentler, more health-conscious dental solution.
What makes zirconia implants unique is their pure, metal-free composition. Traditional metal implants can sometimes pose challenges, including potential adverse reactions or long-term health concerns. Zirconia stands out for its strength, durability, and natural appearance, and lack of metal in the body. Its tooth-colored ceramic structure blends seamlessly with your smile, providing a lifelike look while resisting corrosion for lasting results.
In our Dental Office serving Valencia, Santa Clarita and all surrounding areas , zirconia implants offer more than just a cosmetic upgrade—they promote overall oral health and peace of mind. These implants are ideal for individuals committed to a toxin-free, holistic lifestyle or for those with concerns about the potential impacts of metal-based dentistry. With zirconia, you can enjoy a functional, beautiful smile that feels as good as it looks.

Zirconia is a biocompatible substance. Though titanium is shown to react well with the body, it’s not classified as biocompatible, so it carries some risk of rejection. One of the reasons it’s so crucial to choose a biocompatible option is that rejection might either happen immediately or many years in the future, and the use of biocompatible material can greatly lessen the chance of any future complications.
Patients with auto-immune conditions such as Crohn’s Disease or lupus should take extra precaution when it comes to choosing implant material and consider their options carefully, and consider choosing a biocompatible material like zirconia as much as possible.
Zirconia is a neutral material and hypoallergenic, which is not the case with some metal implants. Surprisingly, many cases of titanium implant sensitivity show up years after surgery when itchiness and inflammation develop around implant sites.
It’s a perfect setup for bone loss and the potential failure of an implant. People who have allergies, skin sensitivities, and compromised immune systems; therefore implantation of metal devices should be seriously scrutinized beforehand,
Before selecting an implant system, consider MELISA testing.
The MELISA test is very useful for the diagnosis of allergies and sensitivities.
Visit www.melisa.org for more information. It’s an innovative diagnostic tool used to identify metal allergies and sensitivities.
As people become more health conscious, they rightfully express concern about having metal in their mouth. Metals like mercury have been linked to Alzheimer’s Disease.
Though titanium and other metal implants don’t use mercury, patients who once upon a time had mercury fillings often wonder if new information will come to light about the dangers of other metals in the mouth.
Zirconia Implant patients can expect a much shorter healing process than a traditional Titanium Implant, along with a significant increase in comfort and function afterward due to biocompatibility and the strength of zirconia.
With Zirconia Implants, the odds are in favor of long-term success.
It’s also important to note that metal conducts electricity and heat, while zirconia does not. Granted, feeling discomfort from an electrical current or feeling excess heat in your mouth are rare occurrences, they can happen, especially among sensitive populations.
Zirconia is a very strong material. Patients appreciate that it simulates the natural tooth perfectly, allowing them to enjoy their food without the worry of shifting or breakage. Zirconia implants mimic the best of nature with a variety of tooth-like shapes and inert makeup.
Zirconia has long been in use in various medical and dental applications, and the list of its amazing qualities and uses grow all the time.
Titanium implants can house more plaque, mostly because of the bacteria buildup from the added metal alloys. Zirconia, on the other hand, attracts less plaque, making it easier to maintain your oral health.
The inherent problem that frequently arises with titanium implants is an aesthetic one. Patients with thin gums or those who have or prone to getting gum recession (especially in the aging population) can get dark gums or titanium showing around the margin of the crown.
Since zirconia is non-metallic and white, it is much more natural looking than titanium. It’s a perfect base color that closely mimics what nature created in the first place.
In Dr. Robert Hedvat’s office, we will work with you to make sure you get the maximum amount of insurance benefits allowed by your plan to keep your costs as low as possible.
The cost of a Zirconia Dental Implant is very similar to traditional Titanium implants, but the benefits are obvious and numerous.
