Good morning!

About 18 months ago, maybe 24, I had my regular dentist extract a molar that had been bothering me, especially after I had let him and his cohorts do a root canal on it

of course, now there's a gap

I've switched to a "holistic" dentist who wants to put a zirconium dental implant in that space before too much shifting and realignment is done...

anyone have zirconium implants? success? trouble?

I don't but am in need of some.

My gone grafting failed so I will have to try again.

Zirconium is a metal although it's more biocompatible for most people than titanium.

I'm definitely looking at zirconium implants not wanting to consider titanium.

I would definitely see if your dentist can test zirconium to see if it will work for you.
