Although titanium is actually still the main material of choice to produce dental Volume 6 Issue 6 - 2017
implants, there seems to be nowadays an obvious trend to fabricate these implants
from more biocompatible materials. For the latter zirconia shows excellent
conditions. Moreover, zirconia offers the dentist also the advantage to work 1
