Replacement of 2 Incisors by Zirconia Implants: An Extended Case-Report

Abstract

The discipline of dental implant-ology is developing steadily. Nowadays, “high-tech” approaches are becoming increasingly common, which optimizes clinical treatment successes. Where implants were originally hands-free installed, today a large part of the interventions uses computer-guided surgery or even navigated implantation. Also, the complete digital workflow, including DVT technology, intraoral scanners and 3D printers, is getting well established now. However, not only surgical and prosthetic concepts continue to develop, but there is also a rethinking of materials into the direction of more biocompatible and esthetic approaches. This article shows how ceramic dental implants can be the ideal alternative to replace 2 lost upper front teeth.
