Zirconia vs titanium implants

Titanium has more than 50 years of data and suits almost every situation. Zirconia is white, metal-free and kind to gums, but has less long-term data and fewer size options.

Zirconia may suit you if you have a proven titanium allergy (very rare), thin gums in the front of the mouth, or a strong preference for metal-free treatment. See materials and Straumann PURE vs Zeramex XT.
