The success of Ceramin dental implants in dentistry have also been well documented. The most common ceramic dental implant is made from a special ceramic, Zirconium oxide (ZO2) that is used in the spaceships because of its high resistance to fracture and heat. The FDA approved the ceramic dental implants a few years ago for use in US.

The white color of Zirconium substitutes the metallic grey appearance of Titanium. Ceramic implants and crowns retains less plaque and calculus than Titanium, therefore the gum appears healthier with a more natural pinkish look.
