First seen May 06, 2026 · Last updated May 09, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study compared two types of dental implants—one made from zirconia and the other from titanium—for replacing a single missing tooth. Researchers wanted to see if the zirconia implant worked as well as the titanium one when placed using a fully digital process. A total of 121 adults participated, and the main focus was on bone changes around the implant and how well the implant survived over a year.
