NobelPearl®

A two-piece ceramic implant for patients who don't want metal

NobelPearl is a metal-free ceramic implant sold by Nobel Biocare. Unusually, it is not made by Nobel Biocare itself: the FDA filing was made by Dentalpoint AG, which states that NobelPearl and its own Zeramex® XT are exactly the same implant under two trade names.
