Dental implant showdown: ceramic vs. metal for your smile
NCT ID NCT03908177
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compared two types of dental implants for replacing a single missing tooth: one made of zirconia (a ceramic) and one made of titanium (a metal). A total of 121 adults received one of the two implants using a fully digital planning and placement process. The main goal was to see if the zirconia implant was as good as the titanium implant in terms of bone level changes around the implant after one year.
