Ceramic Implants

CleanImplant Award

Replace metal or failing implants with biocompatible ceramic—one-visit treatment that supports low inflammation and long-term oral health, validated by a CleanImplant award.

Knowledge

  • Ceramic implants made of zirconium oxide offer a safe alternative to titanium for sensitive or allergy-prone patients

  • Metal-free and biocompatible, promoting excellent gum attachment and preventing bacterial entry into the bloodstream

  • No particle release into surrounding tissue — reducing risk of allergies or intolerances

  • Highly tolerated and stable, making ceramics essential in modern biological dentistry

  • Support long-term oral and overall health with a natural, body-friendly solution

Modern zirconia implants are engineered for high stability and durability. With correct planning, suitable implant dimensions and a carefully designed bite, they can achieve long-term success rates comparable to titanium in many clinical situations.

Just as important as the material are the surgical technique, bone quality, immune status and follow-up care. In a well-managed biological concept, ceramic implants can provide stable function and aesthetics for many years.

Many high-end biological clinics offer structured “one-week” or “bio-health week” concepts. After detailed diagnostics and preparation, several surgical steps – such as metal removal, jawbone revision and immediate implant placement – are combined in one carefully planned week.

Suitability depends on your bone quality, immune status, medical history and travel schedule. For international patients and busy executives, this condensed format can significantly reduce time away from work and family.

Before major biological surgery you will usually complete standard blood tests and, if needed, specialised immune or vitamin profiles. The clinic may advise you to optimise vitamin D3, omega-3, minerals and antioxidants in the weeks before treatment.

You are also encouraged to reduce sugar, alcohol and smoking, improve sleep and movement and follow a nutrient-dense diet so you enter surgery in the best possible metabolic and immune state.

Biological dentists aim to preserve healthy tooth structure whenever possible. This may involve high-strength ceramic onlays, inlays or partial crowns, as well as targeted periodontal therapy and bite adjustments.

Implants are usually recommended only when teeth are no longer restorable or their preservation would compromise long-term stability. Even then, extractions and implants are planned to respect bone biology and future aesthetics.

After comprehensive bio-dental rehabilitation, regular professional cleanings and check-ups are essential. The clinic will define an individual recall schedule, typically between two and four visits per year depending on your risk profile.

You will receive precise instructions on home care, suitable oral-care products, diet, sleep and lifestyle. Many high-end patients combine their annual medical and dental reviews into one coordinated longevity visit.

Ceramic implants by Swiss Dental Solutions

The ceramic dental implants used at SWISS BIOHEALTH CLINIC were developed by pioneer Dr. Volz and SWISS DENTAL SOLUTIONS. They are the best ceramic implants available on the market.

The purity of the latest SDS implant generation has been tested and confirmed by the CleanImplant Foundation in a complex, independent process. In October 2021, this uncompromising surface quality was awarded a certificate.

Use of ceramic implants according to the Swiss Biohealth Concept

Thanks to the “SCC Short Cut Concept According to Dr. Volz” introduced in 2014, our dentists now have the unique opportunity both to remove problem areas, such as metal implants, ischemic osteonecrosis, or root-treated teeth, as well as to insert the ceramic implants in one single treatment. This allows the immune system to work perfectly – systemic stress is eliminated, and the implants can reliably heal in place.

 

No swelling

Usually without any pain or swelling thanks to the surgical protocol and the accompanying medical treatment.

 

Only one session

Thanks to our ALL IN ONE CONCEPT, all treatments are performed in just a single session, meaning less stress for you and your immune system.

 

100% metal-free

It is not only our implants that are entirely ceramic; all the tools used for the insertion process are 100% ceramic, too.

FAQ

Ceramic implants are a lifelong solution with proper dental care and oral hygiene. On average, however, they last at least 15-20 years. We therefore recommend that you pay particular attention to oral hygiene. Have any inflammations or diseases that occur treated immediately.

Ceramic implants are naturally white and very close to the natural tooth color. They are highly aesthetic. This tooth replacement will give you back your most beautiful smile.

As a rule, ceramic implants take at least three to six months to heal. Depending on the bone quality and individual healing process, the healing process (osseointegration) takes different lengths of time. Our specialists will inform you about this individually after your operation.

Yes. With our ALL-IN-ONE Concept, ceramic implants can often be placed immediately after tooth extraction. This approach eliminates long waiting times, minimizes bone loss, and supports faster healing — all in a single, carefully planned treatment sequence.

The SWISS BIOHEALTH Concept combines biological dentistry and biological medicine to optimize your body’s ability to heal. By removing all sources of inflammation and using biocompatible materials only, we create ideal conditions for natural regeneration and long-term stability.

Ceramic implants are neutral and metal-free, meaning they do not release particles or electrical currents into the body. This reduces immune stress and helps maintain a balanced, inflammation-free environment — supporting overall health and systemic well-being.

Yes. We specialize in the safe removal of metal implants and their replacement with ceramic alternatives. This process is performed under the SWISS BIOHEALTH CONCEPT, ensuring gentle extraction, detoxification, and immediate restoration with biocompatible materials.
