When it may be considered
- Patients who want a metal-free implant
- Front teeth with thin gums, where a grey shadow could show
- Single-tooth cases in the aesthetic zone
Why a dentist may choose it
- White zirconia (Y-TZP) material
- Two-piece design allows a separate abutment
- From a manufacturer with a broad titanium range, too
Unlike Straumann's titanium-based BLX, BLT and TLX, PURE is ceramic. The size range is narrower and there is less long-term research than for titanium.
