This case involved a simple placement of an implant in a site with adequate bone in an overall healthy patient. The case is significant in that it was the first case ever worldwide using the ZERAMEX XT Ceramic Implant System.
ZERAMEX XT is a two-piece, screw-retained system that functions surgically and restoratively like current titanium implants.
This case shows a ZERAMEX XT 4.2 x 10 mm implant placed in a healed extraction and grafted site. The implant placement was done four months post-tooth extraction and grafting.
The implant was restored using the VICARBO Carbon Fiber screw and zirconia abutment.
At the one-year follow-up with the patient, the implant shows no peri-implant inflammation. In addition, no movement or bone loss can be observed.
The author requests that you read each photo caption to receive a good understanding of each step of the process.
This case was completed in Zurich, Switzerland, by Dr. Jens Tartsch. He practices in Zurich and is a founding father of the European Society of Ceramic Implants. ESCI is a connection between industry leaders and clinical users of ceramic implants working together to create the designs and technologies for proven future success.
