Full Mouth Dental Implants with Zirconia Bridges

Zirconia is a highly desirable and durable material that dentists prefer for a dental implant supported prostheses around the globe. Not only is zirconia a comfortable material in the mouth, but it also scores an 8.5 on the Mohs Hardness Scale (natural tooth enamel scores a 5!) and naturally contains an aesthetic bone-white color. 

What is Zirconia?

Zirconia is made from zirconium dioxide which is a white powdered ceramic material that is metal-free. Discovered in 1789, about 90% of zirconium is used in nuclear power. Why? Zirconium is incredibly resistant to corrosion and high temperatures, leading this material to be a useful tool in the production of nuclear energy. When used in dentistry, zirconium is highly desired due to its strength.

Why use Zirconia for Dental Implants?

Zirconia has proven to be the strongest material available for implant-supported prosthetic teeth. The strength of zirconia is extremely important in an implant supported prosthesis because it’s noticeable every time a patient chews. Due to the strength and comfortability of zirconia, this material makes a great option for dental bridges.
