What are they made from?
Zirconium dioxide is used to make prostheses. It is highly bioinert: this means that this mineral does not interact with body tissues and fluids. Therefore, it is considered as safe as possible.
Dentures are made from zirconium blanks, the plasticity of which allows the formation of structures of the desired configuration. The final stage of production (firing at high temperatures) gives the products high strength.
