Zirconia vs Titanium Prosthesis in Full-Mouth Implants in India – Which is Best for You?


When choosing full-mouth dental implants, one of the most important decisions is the type of prosthesis that will be fixed onto the implants. Two of the most popular options in India are zirconia prosthesis and titanium prosthesis. Both have their advantages, and the right choice depends on your specific needs, expectations, and budget.


At Advanced Dental Care Center, Chandigarh, under the expertise of Dr. Anshu Gupta (MDS PGIMER Chandigarh, Gold Medalist, 25+ years of experience), we help international patients make the best choice for long-lasting, natural-looking results.


What is a Prosthesis in Full-Mouth Implants?


A prosthesis is the set of artificial teeth (bridge) that is attached to the dental implants. While the implants act as artificial tooth roots, the prosthesis is what restores your smile, bite, and aesthetics.


Zirconia Prosthesis


🔹 What is Zirconia?

Zirconia is a high-strength ceramic material known for its durability and natural tooth-like appearance.


✅ Advantages of Zirconia Prosthesis:

• Superior aesthetics – looks like natural teeth

• Metal-free, highly biocompatible (ideal for patients allergic to metals)

• Extremely strong and long-lasting

• Resistant to staining and wear

• Customizable shades for natural-looking smiles


⚠️ Considerations:

• Higher cost compared to titanium

• Can be heavier in full-arch cases

• Requires precision fabrication (only advanced clinics offer it)


Titanium Prosthesis


🔹 What is Titanium?

Titanium prostheses are made of a strong metal framework with acrylic or ceramic teeth on top.


✅ Advantages of Titanium Prosthesis:

• Extremely strong and durable

• Lightweight, making it comfortable for patients

• Long clinical history of success in implant dentistry

• More affordable than zirconia

• Easier to repair if needed


⚠️ Considerations:

• May not look as natural as zirconia in certain lighting

• Contains metal (not suitable for patients with metal allergies)

• Over time, acrylic teeth may wear or discolor and may need replacement
