The post Zirconia Promises Superior Strength and Aesthetics in Dental Implants appeared first on Emerginnova.
]]>Increasing standards of aesthetics and higher incidences of allergies caused by titanium, coupled with greater demands for metal-free dental reconstructions, have resulted in the use of ceramics as a surrogate material in dental implants. Though titanium is still the material of choice in implant manufacturing, zirconia has become an attractive alternative material due to its enhanced aesthetic potential and higher mechanical strength compared to traditional metals.
Zirconia’s superior properties include its high compressive strength, higher tensile strength, and modulus of elasticity compared to any titanium alloy or commercial-grade pure titanium. Tetragonal zirconia polycrystal, specifically around 3-mol% yttrium oxide (yttria)-stabilized zirconia, is mainly the selected ceramic for dental implants. Zirconia’s white, opaque color with low affinity for bacterial plaque and ultra-biocompatibility make it a material of interest in the biomedical industry.
Biomechanically Stable Processing
In its pure state, zirconium dioxide possesses low shear strength and is very brittle, which makes it unsuitable for dental applications. But adding small amounts of aluminum oxide and yttrium oxide increases zirconium’s modulus of elasticity and stabilizes it.
Today, hot isostatic pressing (HIP) subjects monocline zirconia to high pressure, which causes the condensation of particles and results in a tetragonal crystalline lattice structure, where the particles seem to overlap. This significant innovation prevents the propagation of cracks.
With HIP-processed zirconia, any microcrack that develops is quickly stabilized since the tetragonal particles expand into the monocline structure to fill the gap formed. This self-repairing characteristic is also known as the airbag effect.
The modifications of polycrystal “HIP zirconia” material even prevent the material from aging. These key features eliminate breakage. Several experiments have evaluated the biomechanical properties of zirconium implants with significant success.
The 2-Piece Prepable Design
Previously, most zirconia implants were produced as one-piece implants. But these systems had some limitations. It was not always possible to satisfy prosthodontics requirements during the surgical placement, and the angled abutments for correcting misalignment were not available.
Secondary shape corrections with grinding always should be avoided since they could severely degrade zirconia’s fracture strength. Also, one-piece implants are exposed to forces from the tongue and mastication. Ensuring suitable torque, choosing a proper thread design, and using a guarded temporary appliance such as Essix can prevent these problems.
Many ceramic systems are offered as 2-piece implants that can be placed just like titanium implants with good primary stability and left to heal under the gums for 3 to 6 months. These implant systems also exhibit sufficient fracture resistance that can withstand strong bite forces.
Also, to obtain high connection strength between the implant and abutment, a non-metal carbon reinforced screw made of high tech plastic (Iso-elastic properties) is needed to withstand tensile forces.
Two-piece implants with screw-retained abutments are preferable for many reasons. Further research will surely lead to improved biomechanical properties that will make it possible to try novel solutions. Enhanced strength also will enable the innovative design of implants, reconstructions, and the components for connecting them.
Soft-Tissue Integration and Reduced Peri-Implantitis
From a biological perspective, zirconia provides very valuable characteristics. It has a very low affinity for bacterial plaque, a negligible inflammatory infiltrate, and remarkable soft-tissue integration. All of these characteristics can diminish the risk of peri-implant diseases.
It is suggested that the bacterial biofilm accumulates less on zirconia compared to titanium. Hence, it may be assumed that peri-implant soft tissues around zirconia implants will be at lower risk of infection and inflammation. Every implant material has a definite surface free energy. It is observed that zirconia abutments have low surface free energy and low surface wettability, reducing adhesion of bacteria.
Presently, with fair clinical experience, peri-implantitis appears to be less of a problem with zirconia implants than with titanium implnts. Actually, peri-implantitis has not been observed or reported so far, though this needs to be confirmed with longitudinal monitoring.

]]>The post ZERAMEX as a featured product by Klaus Pettinger and Wolfgang Weisser appeared first on Emerginnova.
]]>Klaus Pettinger and Wolfgang Weisser want to motivate their dental technician colleagues to produce individual abutments. It’s worth it, say the two dental technicians. In their two-part article, they show why.
The authors have been in the business for a long time – and more: They have many years of experience with implant-supported dentures. Both specialists have made ceramic implants their great passion (Fig. 1). Klaus Pettinger is even one of the pioneers in this area. Wolfgang Weisser was able to benefit from his specialist knowledge. Together they plan and discuss the handling and pitfalls of ceramic implants. As a result, the idea arose to describe the procedure of the monolithic abutment step by step in a specialist article.
The patient case The loss of the tooth in region 36 (Fig. 2) had caused the patient some inconvenience: food particles accumulated in this area which the man found very annoying. He came to the practice of Dr. Michael Schneider in Schomdorf with the wish to close this gap. After a detailed diagnosis by the practitioner, it was agreed to insert a cervical implant and to remove all metal restorations from the lower jaw in this treatment phase. The renovation should be done with metal-free reconstructions. The surgical procedure The initial situation shows the opening for displaying the bone – performed with a pilot hole (A) with the Zeradrill Pilot 2.3 mm and then via the EP drill with the Zeradrill W 10 with a 5.5 mm drill in preparation for thread cutting (Fig. 3).
Then the thread cutting protocol followed. With this arrangement, Zeratap wide with 5.5 mm (Fig. Step, everything for inserting the 4 and 5) is prepared after the surgical implant.
With the pick-up (Fig. 6 and 7) the wide implant is 10 mm long, c Diameter 5.5 mm, used, Dr. Micheal Schneider always sets the same bon level, which is why he is also for the XT from Zeramex supracrestal (Fig. 8) decided.
If the retention holder is perfectly aligned, angled standard abutments can later be used in the restoration (Fig. 9). You can clearly see the concave platform – a ten degree cone. After inserting the XT 17510, the wound is closed with the Healing Cap WB 37500 (Fig. 10) – with a Dr. Tailors preferred thin sutures (Fig. 11), which are very comfortable for the patient. After the healing phase, a slightly fenestrated gingiva can be seen over the healing cap (Fig. 12).
The opening is made through the incision for the placement of the gingiva former {Fig. 13). The practitioner removes the healing cap (Fig. 14), the implant is cleaned and replaced with the healing cap WB 37503 (Fig. 15). You can see the situation very well (Fig. 16). It would also be possible to create a custom healing abutment to prepare the space for the later custom abutment.
The second part of the article is about taking an impression and inserting the individual abutment.

]]>The post Zeramex P6 Dental Implant Placement by Dr. Shepard Delong appeared first on Emerginnova.
]]>Zeramex P6 Dental Implant Placement | explained by Dr. Shepard Delong
This is a typical workflow for me with the Zeramex P6. The patient did not want an RCT or metal placed in her body. She wanted a high-quality, healthy and life-like tooth replacement. We extracted the tooth and performed ridge preservation with PRF and allograft. After 4 months of healing an implant is selected following standard bone volume requirements using Galaxis from Sirona and a CEREC 2 guide system. This case was narrow buccolingually so a 4.2 diameter implant was chosen and placed. The 0.8-1.8 mm supracrestal placement allows the clinician to place it according to soft tissue thickness and without the need for significant bone profiling. Healing abutments or “gingiformers” can be placed at the time of surgery or utilized in a two-stage approach. Abutment collar heights of 1 or 2mm can be selected, modified by hand and seated or selected for laboratory use. A digital scanning abutment or impression post can be utilized for a lab fabricated restoration. I chose to scan with CEREC Omnicam and then restored with a same-day emax crown. Many options for restorative workflow and I have found great success with both the P6 and XT. I love Zeramex! Patients love it too. I keep saying, “The future is bright, White!”

The following case report is intended to show the use of the Zeramex Plus implant (Switzerland Dental Point AG Zurich). This implant combines two properties demanded and recommended by science.
What is meant is the use of an industrial, high-quality zirconium dioxide manufactured according to standardized criteria as well as a microstructured and rough implant surface. After several years of experience with one-piece zirconia implants, the author was excited to see the results of a two-part system. The implant insertion does not differ in any way – apart from the mandatory thread cut for every bone quality – from the implantation process in titanium implantology. The two-part system has considerable advantages because the implants can heal unloaded. No special interim prosthetic measures are required. In the prosthetic phase, we can use healing caps as well as screwed down temporary restorations. The Zeraloc connection and abutment bonding let us forget the micro-gap discussions.
The present case describes the treatment of a 53-year-old patient with a Zeramex Plus implant in region 45, after an uncomplicated extraction in September 2012. Due to various intolerances, the patient wished for a zirconia implant. On April 2, 2013, the patient was treated with a ten millimeter implant with a 4.1 millimeter diameter under local anesthesia. The patient received a single shoot dose of penicillin 1.5 grams preoperatively.
Many thanks for the good cooperation to my colleague Dipl. Stom. Dentist Katrin Zenker and master dental technician Dirk Seiring, MSc Dental Technik.
Comment materials
Zirconium Ceramill Zi was used for the crown production, the material shrinks by about 22% after the sintering process. The zirconia body was colored with DD Bio Z color TS immediately before the sintering process. The material of the veneer is zirconia (Heraceram), both masses and glaze pastes are from Heraeus.

Esthetic Rehabilitation with Zirconia Dental Implant on a Complex Pathology Patient
Author: Luis A. Alicea DMD, MSD
The zirconia dental implants have several advantages over titanium implants. The zirconia implant is a high strength ceramic not a metal material, white in color and not visible through the gum tissue, offering a more aesthetically pleasing option for patients. Also, the ceramic is a more biocompatible material that will not corrode over time as other dental implants metal materials. so particles from corrosion are not emitted into the body as a foreign body
Holistic alternative to titanium Implants, ideal for patients with metal allergies. The osseointegration of the zirconia implant is similar as the titanium dental implant. Zirconia dental implant and zirconia dental prosthesis are more resistant to harbor less initially adherent (plaque).
