Ceramic Dental Implants in Everyday Practice

Description:
One-piece Zirconia Oxide implants can overcome the problems we associate with two-piece and one-piece titanium root form implants. It will be shown how this treatment option is no longer “experimental” and that the Zirconia Oxide material used in the CeraRoot implants shows excellent ability to osseointegrate, is phenomenally strong, and provides a soft tissue profile and health around the implants that rivals natural teeth. This presentation will make you rethink your titanium armamentarium. You will see a way to provide your patients with an ideal tooth replacement option. An implant that looks like a tooth, restores like a tooth, and has the periodontal health that rivals that of a tooth without the fear of screw loosening, metal showing, and Peri-implantitis caused by subgingival connections.

Thanks a lot Dr Dan.

Dan; If you have article pdfs you can send them to Tyler at DentalXP and he will post them on your Xpert page so members can access them right here on this site. Dr. Salama

Thank you Carlos. Have a look in the Ceraroot.com site. You will find many references to published data. If you want more email me I will be glad to send you more. Cheers. Dan.

Hello... it was a great presentation... Thanks Dr Dan for showing us the benefit of dental zirconia implants in our practice... The questions were very interesting... the answers much better... I think we need more information about the theme... If you could recommend more bibliography, I would appreciate your help...

Hey Dan. Great answers below. Please continue to comeback and update your responses and review the additional questions as they arise. A very interesting topic. thanks again, Maurice

Good Course

Dan Hagi - (4/30/2014 11:03 AM)

Maurice. There are 2 piece systems on the market. I think that as the materials improve this may be viable however my concern is with the connections. As we bring these components together we loose bulk of material. Same goes for the narrower 2 piece titanium implants. There is some short term data on success of design but the literature has now nearly 10 years of data on the one-piece ceramic implants like CeraRoot. The components come together at tissue level so I expect similar tissue response but the overall strength is compromised. Yiannis there is 10 year data that should be published in the very near future showing sucess rates very similar to Ti. Peri-implantitis does not seem to be a problem. This could be because of the one-piece design i.e. no subgingival connection or the lower affinity of the zirconia surface to bacterial colonization. The surface can be cleaned to the same extent that titanium can be. One can use acids, antibiolic gels or mechanical methods, though to date I have no experience with that as we have not had these issues. As far as titanium sensitivities we use the MELISA test. I try to prepare as minimal as possible, small modifications of a margin or angulation do not affect overall survival. Heavy preparation and thinning of the abutment will. Surgical excellence is required to get the implant in the correct positition.

Very nice presentation. Congratulations. It will be interesting to see how do these implants behave on the long term as far as peri-implantitis is concerned. Usually we see this type of problem 3-6 years later. What are your thoughts on this subject? and how can this medium rough surface be decontaminated compared to titanium surface? Second question. Zirconia implants could be an answer to patients intolerant or allergic to titanium (see references below). Do you use these type of tests as a screening way to decide between titanium and zirconia implants, or do you routinely place only zirconia implants? Third question How does prepping the abutment affect the mechanical properties of this implant? Thank you for the very nice presentation Yiannis References 1.

Nice job my friend. What are your thoughts on a 2 piece Zr Implant over the 1 piece offerings? Thanks Dr. Salama

The Surgical-Restorative Digital Work Flow In Comprehensive Therapy
Traditional methods of treating our patients are being been replaced by digital processes, impacting our daily life. The intake of various technologies such as CBCT imaging, scanning, digital restorative design and CAD/CAM production have contributed to this movement. In the same time, restorative materials have also been developed and studied that have improved strength and esthetic qualities. All these capabilities create opportunities for better restorative outcome. This presentation will highlight a practice-based model centered on digitally enhanced treatment for efficient and predictable esthetic restorative outcomes.

Immediate Occlusal Loading (IOL) of Dental Implants: Predictable Results Through DIEM Guidelines
In recent years, the immediate loading of dental implants has become more accepted as a standard protocol for the treatment of the fully edentulous mandible. The pioneers in implant dentistry often tried this technique but only achieved mixed success. One of the main reasons for the failure of these early attempts was the lack of understanding of the biological and mechanical principles that we now know are necessary for clinical success.

The Use of Free Gingival Soft Tissue to Improve Implant/Soft Tissue Interface

The Use of Free Gingival Soft Tissue to Improve Implant/Soft Tissue Interface
Various techniques for the placement of different types of dental implants have evolved to the point where predictable bone-to-implant integration occurs if proper surgical technique is followed. The soft-tissue adaptation to the implant abutment is the first line of defense to prevent the development of peri-implantitis and subsequent bone loss. Given that there is a tenuous protective seal around dental implants, the rationale for soft-tissue augmentation around dental implants to provide an improved,…
