The Metal Free Implant System,also called zirconia or Ceramic Dental Implants,has proven its worth on both;clinical and scientific levels since its inception in 2006.Published,science-based long-term results spanning more than 10+years attest to its success.These findings prove that Ceramic Implant or Implant Zirconia can achieve results comparable to those obtained with Titanium Dental Implant.
Studies have also investigated and demonstrated osseointegration and integration in peri-implant soft tissue,i.e.gums.Particular emphasis was placed on the attachment of the peri-implant soft tissues to the implant surface.The histological observations are also confirmed in clinical use,and They are attributed to the material and ideal surface roughness.
The long-term results regarding bone stability,aesthetics and survival rate are conclusive.Zirconia Dental or Ceramic Implant have enabled modern implantology to overcome the limitations ofTitanium Dental Implants,but also in terms of immunological response to the implant material.Zirconia Dental Implants(MFD or Metal Free Dental Implants)have proven their value at both clinical and scientific level since their launch in 1987 in Germany.Scientifically sound and long-term evidence has been published over the past 15 years,attesting to its success.
SUCCESS RATE:91(1)2%over 10 years.
Rule 1
The required minimum distance from the implant to the adjacent tooth at bone level is 1.5 mm.
Rule 2
The recommended minimum distance between two adjacent implant shoulders is 3 mm.
Rule 3
Special attention be given to achieve an optimal oro-facial positioning of the implant.

Dental crowns are artificial coverings that are placed over damaged or decayed teeth. They can also be used to improve the appearance of a smile. Dental crowns are made of a variety of materials, including metal, porcelain, and zirconia.
Zirconia crowns are made of a ceramic material that is very strong and durable. They are also biocompatible, which means that they are unlikely to cause an allergic reaction. Zirconia crowns are a good choice for people who want a natural-looking tooth replacement that is also very durable.
Polymer crowns are made of a plastic material that are much lighter in weight than zirconia crowns. However, they are almost the same cost as Zirconia crowns and can be a good option for people who have low bone density or gum issues. Polymer crowns are also a good choice for people who have allergies to metal or other materials.
SAPTeethTM shows that there is no longer any reason to resort to traditional materials such as metal, ceramic or zirconia for restorations. These plastics offer significant benefits in the fields of aesthetics, processing, cost-efficiency, durability and patient acceptance. They offer a win-win situation for both patients and their care team. The restoration does not need to be exchanged after 6 months, which leads to optimum healing results. Cost and time saving for both the patient and the dentist.
Zirconia crowns offer a number of benefits, but there are also some risks associated with them, including:
Then MFD implants are the right choice for you! The gums adapt excellently, meaning less plaque accumulation and therefore periodontitis can be avoided. Best suited for patients with gum disease, oral cancer, and need for excellent aesthetics.
No, actually a single tooth replacement can be the same or less expensive than a conventional bridge.
YES, they are very successful. The success rate has reached as high as 97% over a five-year period and 92% over a ten-year period. This is more successful than other forms of dentistry.
Implants provide teeth that are more natural, secure and comfortable than conventional tooth replacements. It is like having your natural teeth back again, like you had at age 18. MFD offers additional advantages over metal implants, so you may now live metal free!
Metal Free Dental Implants are made from Zirconia which is a ceramic material with biocompatibility and aesthetic advantages – making it a great alternative to traditional titanium implants. Mini dental implants are an ultra-small diameter (1.8-millimetre width), biocompatible titanium alloy implant screws, conceived and designed over 20 years ago by a board-certified Manhattan Dentist, Victor I. Sendax, DDS. Dr Sendex originally created the unique design of this unique dental product as a transitional device to help support fixed bridge replacements for lost teeth. His novel theory was that mini implants could function free standing by themselves or in combination with natural tooth supports and/or larger conventional type implants. This was a revolutionary concept in dental science.
A zirconia tooth implant is a non-metal alternative to traditional titanium dental implants. Instead of metal, zirconia offers a ceramic choice that is more natural-looking and just as strong and durable as conventional implants. These implants can be used in the same way as titanium implants.
Ceramic implants are more expensive than titanium when it comes to tooth replacement. To replace a tooth with a zirconia implant vs titanium, the zirconia implant is 30% more expensive.
Since the 1960s, implants made from titanium have become the standard and enjoy long-term success rates of about 95%. But zirconia implants are emerging as an alternative to conventional titanium implants due to their biocompatibility, soft-tissue response, and aesthetics.
A property of SAPTeethTM allows the light to reflect naturally from the tooth. This gives the excellent aesthetics for better patient acceptability.
SAPTeethTM is fixed over the natural tooth with cement similar to SAPTeethTM. This allows better bonding of prosthesis with implant or natural tooth. It gives greater strength as compared to multi-layered ceramic/porcelain/zirconia or metal prosthesis.
For a young cosmetic patient, long-lasting, plaque resistant material is a boon. Whereas for a middle-aged one; a functionally working prosthesis that can take the daily load is needed. In an elderly person, a functional and cosmetic acceptable solution is required over a weak bone structure. SAPTeethTM is a one-stop solution for all age groups.
SAPTeethTM teeth are developed for a high level of colour retention, plaque resistance and are extremely well suited for long-term dental prosthesis.
SAPTeethTM is developed to achieve the physiological elasticity that can be retained and paired for oral use. Therefore, SAPTeethTM achieves a unique balance between elasticity and rigidity, weight and fracture strength, physiology, and plaque resistance.
