				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dental implants are nothing new. The oldest discovered dental implant was a copper stud found in the jaw of an Egyptian from somewhere around 1000 BC. Obviously technology has come a long way since then and the surgical placement methods have definitely improved since that first implant, the idea of replacing a tooth is nothing new. Nor is the idea of biocompatible dental implants. While we may view zirconium oxide implants as a new breakthrough in dental technology, researchers have discovered attempts at bicomcompatible replacement teeth from as early as 600 AD, when a Mayan woman was found to have “three tooth-shaped pieces of shell placed into the sockets of three missing lower incisor teeth” (Wikipedia, 2010).</p>
<p>The fact is, we need our teeth. For ages we have attempted to find better methods and improved materials to replace missing teeth. From the earliest attempts to removable dentures, to bridges, to our modern titanium implants. By most calcualtions, titanium implants have been the best option to replace teeth discovered <em>so far</em>.</p>
<p>Dentures were at one time the <em>best way</em>, as were bridges, etc. So while titanium implants were a huge step forward in what we were able to offer patients, it doesn&#8217;t mean that it is where the search stops. In fact, there is already a more viable solution available on the market: zirconium oxide implants (or ceramic implants).</p>
<p>Ceramic dental implants improve upon the few weaknesses found in titanium implants and provide a viable, improved option for both the patient and the doctor.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Crowns and Implants</strong><br />
Ceradyne molded ceramic dental components offer a cost effective  alternative to expensive machined parts, with more consistent  reproducibility and less induced stress. The ceramic dental implant  system includes an implant body, an implant abutment and a crown.</p>
<p>Molded parts offer the advantage of better design and lower  induced stress in the final assembled system that minimizes the  potential for cracking and failure. The dental system also fulfills the  desire of patients to have permanent effective solutions to their dental problems.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><img class="alignright" title="Bredent WhiteSKY Ceramic Implants" src="http://www.bredent-medical.com/en/medical/images/22017/white.jpg" alt="" width="319" height="218" />Natural Beauty</strong></p>
<p>Your patients‘ demands on the esthetic appearance of prosthetic  restorations are growing. The new tooth-colored whiteSKY zirconium  dioxide implant made by bredent medical meets your patients‘ high  demands on esthetics. No dark shades will affect the beauty of the  restoration. Perfect results will be achieved even in cases of low  gingiva height. Lasting satisfaction of your patients with whiteSKY  implants is ensured and your patients will recommend you &#8211; there is no  bigger compliment patients can pay!</p>
<p>A growing number of patients have developed allergies to metals; the  whiteSKY zirconium implant represents a reliable alternative for this  group of patients. The absence of metals protects your patients against  undesired negative reactions.</p>
<p>The material is perfectly suited for implant since it  features a  strength that is three times higher than that of titanium, exhibits   ideal elasticity and long-term resistance to fracture. Scientific  studies have  showed that it features the same characteristics as  comparable titanium  surfaces as far as osseointegration is concerned.</p>
<p>Thanks to the one-piece design of the implant, it is always suitable for   immediate loading, i.e. the same requirements as those for an  immediately  loaded titanium implant need to be fulfilled such as  sufficient bone volume,  adequate primary stability and connecting to  adjacent teeth or to other  whiteSKY implants</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bioimplant advocates for and has patented a ceramic implant placement <em>technique</em>. Rather than manufacture standard sizes of zirconia implants, Bioimplant advocates for individualized zirconia implants. These implant are fabricated to fit the patient and &#8220;respect the anatomy without altering it.&#8221;</p>
<p>The idea behind the technique is that by developing an implant that fits the individual&#8217;s root anatomy, the doctor does less to disturb the bone and, therefore, can increase osseointegration.</p>
<p>You may or may not agree with the technique, but research shows that such a procedure has definite validity and potential for the future of ceramic implantology.</p>
