An In-Depth Look into The Many Benefits Offered by Zirconia Dental Implants

How Much Does a Zirconia Implant Cost in Colorado Springs Area

If you have lost a tooth, your dentist will recommend a tooth replacement option. For some situations, a dental bridge or dentures will be suitable. If you are looking for the most durable and long-lasting option available, you will want to consider a dental implant. In recent years, titanium has been the most popular material which dental implants have been made of. zirconia, however, is quickly gaining in popularity for several reasons. If you are looking for a non-metal dental implant option in Colorado Springs, Colorado, you need to reach out to Dr. Chris Brady at Dental Health and Wellness. If you are wondering how much a zirconia implant costs compared to titanium, keep reading.

Cost of Zirconia Dental Implants

Pricing of zirconia dental implants will differ based on your choice of dentist, but, in general, zirconia implants typically cost more than a titanium dental implant. There are specific reasons for this, one of which is the higher manufacturing cost of zirconia. The average zirconia dental implant costs around $200 to $300 more than a titanium implant. While a zirconia implant does cost slightly more, several benefits associated with zirconia implants make this slightly higher cost worth it.

Hypoallergenic

Some patients who see Dr. Brady have allergies or are sensitive to titanium. With dental implants, having an allergic reaction results in more than just a little bit of inflammation or itchiness. It could result in your body rejecting the implant. In comparison, zirconia is a hypoallergenic material that will have no side effects after the surgery. You can have peace of mind that the implant will take, and your body will not react negatively.

Strength

Under pressure, zirconia is very durable and inflexible. That is one reason it is such a great material for dental implants. Your teeth undergo a tremendous amount of pressure from your jaw muscles anytime you eat. Zirconia can withstand this pressure.

Integration Into the Bone

One of the most critical times of the dental implant process comes after the implant has been placed. Once an implant is placed, a process called osseointegration takes place when the implant fuses to the jawbone. How your implant bonds with your jawbone will make or break the process. If your bone rejects the implant, complications will occur. You could even lose the implant.

Aesthetically Pleasing

Zirconia implants result in a smile that is more aesthetically pleasing. With a zirconia implant, you will not see discoloration through the gums like you would with a titanium implant. That is especially true if your implant is within the “smile zone” that is more visible to others. Because zirconia is a white and non-corrosive metal, this is not a problem you need to worry about.

If you seek a durable tooth replacement option that will last a lifetime, you should consider a zirconia dental implant.
