Ceramic implants are made from zirconia, a high-strength material that contains no metallic components.

They function in the same way as titanium implants — integrating with the jawbone to support a crown, bridge, or other restoration — but are chosen by patients who prefer to avoid traditional metals in the body.

Ceramic implants have a natural tooth-like colour throughout, which can be an advantage where the gum sits close to the implant surface.

Treatment is planned following a comprehensive assessment of oral health, bone support, bite forces, and surrounding teeth, and is provided by our implant clinician, Sami Sherif — please hyperlink his name to the Meet the Team page in the practice blue.

Who is a ceramic implant suitable for?

It may be suitable where a tooth is missing, and a patient prefers to avoid traditional metallic materials. Suitability is always assessed individually.

How does it differ from a titanium implant?

Both materials are biocompatible with strong clinical track records. Neither is universally superior — the right choice is discussed at consultation based on your individual circumstances.

Frequently asked questions

1 Are ceramic implants suitable for me?

This depends on a number of factors, including your bone quality, oral health, and personal preferences. We assess each case individually at consultation before making any recommendation.

2 Do they integrate with the bone the same way as titanium?

Yes — the healing process and timelines are broadly the same.

3 Are they a good option if I want to avoid metal?

Yes. Ceramic implants contain no metallic components, making them a popular choice for patients who prefer to avoid traditional metals in the body.

4 Can they be used to replace multiple teeth?

Ceramic implants are well-suited to single tooth replacement. Suitability for more complex cases is always assessed individually.

5 How long do they last?

With good home care and regular check-ups, ceramic implants can last many years

6 Will it look natural?

Yes. Zirconia has a natural tooth-like colour, and the final crown is matched to your surrounding teeth.

7 What does the process involve?

A consultation and assessment first, including a scan where needed. Placement is carried out under local anaesthesia — sedation is available if preferred. The final restoration is fitted once the implant has fully integrated.

8 Are ceramic implants more expensive than titanium?

They typically carry a higher material cost. Full pricing is provided following your consultation.
