Dental implant showdown: zirconia vs. titanium – which is better for your gums?

NCT ID NCT07456163

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at two different materials used for the connector piece (abutment) in single-tooth dental implants: standard titanium and custom-made zirconia. Researchers want to see which one leads to healthier gums and less bone loss around the implant. About 71 adults who already have implants will be followed for one year after getting their new tooth crown.
