Dental implants were discovered by accident!

Modern dental implants in Poland as we know them today were actually discovered by accident! In 1952 the Swedish Professor Per-Ingvar Branemark was working on a clinical research project using rabbit bone and titanium metal. The aim of this research was to examine the blood flow within a rabbit bone using an implant titanium chamber.

Once his experiment was done and all the data collected, Professor Branemark tried to remove the implant chamber, only to discover that the rabbit bone had actually bonded with the surface of titanium metal!

For many hundreds of years dentists tried to find a substance which would successfully replace teeth, a substance that could remain permanently fixed in the jaw and wouldn’t be rejected by the body.

The discovery of titanium’s complete biocompatibility led to a breakthrough in dentistry. Nowadays, dentistry in Poland uses thousands of implants every year!

Zircon in dentistry

Although zircon is one of the oldest minerals in the world, it’s a novelty in dentistry. It is one of the most modern and best materials for dentures and dental crowns in poland and is valued among dentists because of its very high quality. Zircon’s high translucency allows you to choose the best shade of white for your teeth, making your smile look beautiful as well as natural. It is also a lasting material and is completely metal free, so dark teeth edges  will not bother you. If you care for your denture and crowns properly, they will last a lifetime as zircon’s acidproof properties prevent the absorption of harmful substances and it doesn’t discolour over time.

Our newly opened dentalclinic in Świdnik near Lublin in one of the first to use zircon in dental treatment. A big convenience for our clients are the new flight connections between Lublin and Dublin, London or Oslo.
