Dental implants are generally made from titanium or zirconia, depending on the type of implant and the patient's treatment needs. The implant itself is a small post placed into the jawbone.
Titanium is commonly used because it is strong, durable, and can bond naturally with the surrounding bone.

Zirconia is another option, particularly for patients looking for a metal-free alternative. The implant is then connected to an abutment, which supports the visible dental crown. The crown is usually made from tooth-coloured materials such as ceramic or porcelain to closely match the surrounding teeth.

The choice of implant material and restoration depends on factors such as your bone health, oral condition, and overall treatment plan. To understand which option may be appropriate for you, speak with our dentist at Lotus Dental Care for a personalized implant evaluation.
