Vol. 11 – Number 43 – 2020 COLUMN JAQUES Page 24-37 Versatility of applications to zirconia implants – case reports Jaques Luiz¹ Julia Helena Luiz² Flavia Sukekava³ ABSTRACT Zirconia implants are metal-free screws that can theoretically replace titanium implants. The aim of this paper was to discuss the indications for installation of zirconia implants and their versatility in rehabilitation, illustrating with cases report. These clinical cases show the metal free implants applied in the anterior or posterior area, associated with guided bone regeneration, guided surgery, fresh socket or completely healed ridge, using monotype or two-pieces implants. At one-year follow-up of implant loading, 100% success of the implants and prostheses was observed. Although short-term follow-up studies show optimistic results, further comparative and long-term studies are needed. Descriptors: Dental implants, zirconium, metal ceramic alloys. ¹ Esp and Me.
