Byron Bay Dental Implants

Ceramic dental implants, including systems from Straumann, are a metal-free option for replacing missing teeth in cases where material sensitivity or biocompatibility is a priority. At Bytes of Byron – Bio Holistic Dentistry, with clinics in Byron Bay and Lennox Head, we incorporate these systems into treatment planning for patients seeking a holistic approach to oral rehabilitation.


Ceramic implants are designed to integrate with the jawbone without relying on titanium, making them a suitable alternative for individuals exploring biologic or non-metal options. Planning is guided by detailed clinical imaging, allowing the treating practitioner to assess bone structure, oral health, and case suitability before recommending a pathway forward.


Treatment involves an initial consultation and full diagnostic review, followed by a step-by-step plan for surgical placement and restoration. In some cases, supporting procedures such as bone grafting may be required. To discuss your options or book a dental implant consultation, call (02) 6680 8066.

Restoring With Ceramic Implant Systems

Dental implants may be used to replace individual teeth or to support larger prosthetic structures. A ceramic implant is placed into the jawbone, where it gradually integrates with surrounding tissue. After a suitable healing period, a dental crown, bridge, or denture may be attached to restore function and appearance. Ceramic systems are selected for their biocompatibility, neutral colouring, and absence of metal-based materials.


The process may take several months from placement to final restoration, depending on healing, bone support, and treatment complexity. Patients considering implants are advised to undergo a full oral assessment, as gum health, bite alignment, and bone density all influence the success of implant procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Are ceramic dental implants as durable as titanium implants?

    Ceramic implants are structurally strong and suitable for many restorative cases. While titanium has been in clinical use for longer, ceramic systems like Straumann’s have been shown to perform well when properly planned and maintained. The long-term outcome depends on placement, bone health, oral hygiene, and other individual factors.

  • What makes ceramic implants different from traditional dental implants?

    Ceramic implants are made from zirconia and contain no metal. They are often selected by patients with sensitivities or preferences for biologic materials. Unlike traditional titanium implants, ceramic options offer aesthetic advantages and reduced electrical conductivity, aligning with holistic and bio-integrative care models.

  • How long does it take for dental implants to heal?

    Healing usually takes between three and six months. This time allows the implant to bond with the bone in a process called osseointegration. Healing timelines can vary depending on overall oral health, whether bone grafting was needed, and the body’s individual healing capacity.
