Full Zirconia Implants A Metal-Free Option
Implants are typically made of titanium but we understand some of our patients have sensitivities to metal or would rather not place this material in their bodies. We're excited to offer full zirconia implants to meet those needs. In addition to being a safe, stable, and biocompatible material, zirconia is also white and offers a seamless aesthetic finish.
Why Dental Implants
May Be Right for You
Dr. Collier and Several Patients Discuss Implants
Countless people in various stages of their lives have benefited from getting dental implants. These artificial tooth roots can support crowns for singe-tooth replacement, bridges for multiple missing teeth, and a set of dentures for full-arch replacement. During a free consultation at our practice in Cordova, TN, our team will assess your candidacy for implants and develop a custom treatment plan that's right for you.

Is Getting Implants Painful?
How We Ensure Patient Comfort
No, it's not painful. To keep you comfortable and relaxed during implant placement, we use sedation dentistry.
Our dentist serving Memphis and the Mid-South area is certified to provide IV and oral conscious sedation. You can remain conscious during your procedure but be in a relaxed state that you should not feel any pain.

What Are Dental Implants Made Of? Implant Materials and Why They Matter
Biocompatible Materials
To ensure osseointegration occurs, implant materials are biocompatible. That simply means the material will not be rejected by your body's living tissue.
Titanium
For many years, titanium has been the go-to material for dental implants. In fact, scientists learned that titanium was biocompatible by accident. During the 1960s, Dr. Per-Ingvar Brånemark (the father of modern dental implantology) learned that titanium can fuse with bone during a microscopy study involving rabbits.
Zirconia
Materials have come a long way in recent decades. In addition to titanium, it's possible to get dental implants made of zirconia. Zirconia dental implants are completely white, which can improve the appearance of your smile. They are also metal-free, which is ideal for people with metal allergies or sensitivities.
The Benefits of Dental Implants
Prevents Bone Loss
Since dental implants are anchored into the jawbone, they give the bone tissue something to support. This prevents bone atrophy around a tooth gap and along the dental arch.
Stability Without Denture Adhesives or Creams
A removable denture can slip out of place while eating or speaking. Dentures held in place with dental implants are stable, which eliminates the need for dental adhesives and creams.
Improved Dental Health and Function
With implants in place, you can bite, chew, and speak normally. You'll be able to enjoy your favorite foods again and speak without struggling to form certain words.
Excellent Aesthetics
Custom implant restorations are designed to closely resemble the look of natural teeth. Our goal is to make the restorations appear so lifelike that no one notices you've undergone dental work.
