Implants
Missing teeth can be safely and reliably replaced with titanium or ceramic implants for the long term. For an aesthetically pleasing overall result.
Your Path to Metal-Free Implants
Ceramic implants are the metal-free alternative to titanium. They are made of zirconia, a highly biocompatible material that, thanks to its natural white color, is virtually indistinguishable from real teeth. This advantage is particularly evident in the front teeth: While titanium can show through as a grayish tint under thin gum tissue, zirconia blends in invisibly.
Material: Zirconia (metal-free) | Healing time: 3–6 months | Planning: 3D-guided
We plan every ceramic implant using 3D diagnostics and guided implantation. The position, angle, and depth are determined before the procedure begins. This ensures you get a result that doesn’t look like a dental prosthesis.
Who are ceramic implants suitable for?
Ceramic implants are particularly recommended for patients who value biocompatibility and a natural appearance.
✓ Patients with metal allergies or intolerances
✓ The highest aesthetic standards in the anterior region
✓ Desire for holistic, organic dentistry
✓ Thin or receding gums
✓ Single-tooth gaps in the visible area
✓ Patients who prefer a metal-free solution

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Zirconia dental implants are not necessarily better, but they are the right choice for certain patients. They offer advantages for patients with metal allergies, in the visible front teeth area, and for those with very thin gums. Titanium implants have a longer history of clinical use and a broader range of applications. During your consultation, we will recommend the material that best suits your situation.
-
At our practice in Berlin, the cost of an implant starts at 900 euros. Ceramic implants start at 3,500 euros. Private health insurance plans may cover the full cost, depending on the plan. Patients with public health insurance receive a fixed subsidy.
-
Ceramic implants require a healing period of 3 to 6 months before the final crown is placed. During this phase, you will wear an aesthetic temporary restoration. The healing period is comparable to that of titanium implants and depends on the individual bone condition.
-
Ceramic implants are particularly suitable for patients with metal allergies, for the front teeth where the highest level of aesthetics is required, for cases involving very thin or receding gums, and for anyone who prefers a metal-free solution. During the initial consultation, we’ll work with you to determine whether ceramic is the best choice for your situation.
