What is more important for my dental implant? A functional tooth or an aesthetic tooth, or both?

There are a variety of tooth materials that can be used to make a single tooth, known as a crown or row of teeth, known as a bridge. The tooth materials we use include:

• Custom-milled PMMA (acrylic)
• Zirconia

Tooth material is an important cost component when it comes to dental implants. A back tooth needs to be strong enough to withstand chewing cycles, while a front tooth will require a higher quality and aesthetically natural material.

Full mouth dental implants including All-on-4® are made of custom-milled PMMA (acrylic) as the first set of teeth after surgery. The replacement teeth are often made of zirconia.
