Restore your smile with ceramic teeth implants from Irvine, CA dentist

Tooth loss negatively impacts many areas of your life – your oral health, how you bite and chew food, your self-confidence, and even how others perceive you. Luckily, there is a solution that can restore your smile safely and effectively. With ceramic dental implants from David Son DDS in Irvine, CA, you can have a fully functional teeth and a beautiful smile again.

What are dental implants?

Dental implants essentially replace the missing root of your tooth. While other dental restorations sit on top of the gums, a dental implant is placed into the jawbone, where it fuses with the bone to become a stable foundation for a dental prosthetic (false tooth). Depending on how many teeth are missing, a dental implant can be used to anchor a single dental crown, or multiple implants can be used to secure dentures or bridges with multiple prosthetic teeth in place.

How are ceramic implants different from titanium?

Many dentists place titanium implants. Titanium is a lightweight metal that is traditionally used in several medical fields, including orthopedics and dentistry. At David Son DDS, rather than titanium, we provide patients with ceramic dental implants. These metal-free implants offer patients many advantages, including:

• Biocompatible – Ceramic implants are made from zirconia, which is a strong material that is safe for use in the jawbone
• Non-Corrosive ­– Ceramic implants are resistant to corrosion, whereas the acids inside the mouth can cause corrosion in some types of metal dental work
• Non–Allergenic – In some cases, an allergy to metal dental work can occur, which can lead to inflammation and potentially implant failure; with ceramic implants, there is no risk of allergic reaction
• Aesthetically pleasing – Metal implants can cause a silver line to appear along the gum line over time; because ceramic implants are white, they blend in beautifully within the smile to look natural and do not lead to this change in gum color
• Holistic – Ceramic implants are considered a holistic restoration because they do not interrupt the healthy connection between oral health and the rest of the body for all of the reasons above
