Most full mouth reconstruction cases in the USA involve metal dental implants. At Natural Dentistry, Dr. May is one of the very few specialists in the country offering full mouth reconstruction with zirconia dental implants.
Full Mouth Zirconia Dental Implants
You have choices—metal dental implants for full arch implants are not the only option! Metal-free biocompatible options exist!
Many patients who need full tooth replacement options are ONLY told about the full-mouth All-on-X implant replacement option with metal implants. Most patients have no idea that they have 100% metal-free full mouth implant options with zirconia dental implants. If a patient has determined that full mouth reconstruction with dental implants is a viable and necessary procedure, they must be told they have a choice of dental implants.
Dr. May has performed cases for upper arch zirconia implants, lower arch zirconia dental implants, and DOUBLE arch full mouth zirconia dental implants. His cases have been published in industry leading papers and journals, and he is considered an authority figure in the field of full arch zirconia dental implants.
What About Patients With Autoimmune or Inflammatory Conditions?
This is where patient preference often becomes especially important. Patients with autoimmune conditions, inflammatory disorders, metal sensitivities, or complex health histories frequently seek out zirconia dental implants because they want a metal-free option and a treatment plan designed around minimizing potential inflammatory triggers. Natural Dentistry Center explicitly frames full-mouth zirconia reconstruction as an option patients consider when they have autoimmune disorders, metal sensitivity, oncology history, Lyme-related concerns, CIRS, mold sensitivity, or mast-cell-related issues.
At the same time, the best available review literature does not show that zirconia has been conclusively proven superior specifically for diseases such as lupus, MCAS, CIRS, Lyme disease, or cancer. A 2025 scoping review found that implant therapy in patients with autoimmune diseases is generally predictable overall, but that evidence quality remains mixed and disease-specific conclusions are still limited. The most defensible formulation is this: patients with autoimmune or inflammatory concerns often prefer zirconia because it is metal-free and may offer a more favorable peri-implant inflammatory profile, but the literature has not yet established disease-specific superiority across those diagnoses.

For many biologically minded patients, the real issue is not whether the titanium or zirconia implant “works better.” The core issue is whether the implant material may support a lower inflammatory burden over time. That is why zirconia implants are often discussed in relation to reduced plaque retention, reduced peri-implant inflammation, no galvanic effects, no metal corrosion, no metal particle release, and lower peri-implantitis concerns compared with titanium. The evidence is clear, but it should be stated accurately: current research supports a biologically favorable profile for zirconia in several measures, and anectodal evidence going back 15+ years definitively proves that zirconia is universally superior in a long-term clinical scenario for the limited number of patients who have undergone All-on-X zirconia dental implant procedures.
Patients Who SHOULD Consider Zirconia Dental Implants for Full Mouth
Patients with autoimmune disorders, those sensitive to metals, and those highly reactive to chemicals and foreign materials should absolutely be gauging whether metal implants are a risk they are willing to take. Often patients with a history of oncology, CIRS, Lyme disease, Hashimoto’s, mold sensitivity, and mast cell activity disorder refuse to play Russian roulette with their body and explore zirconia dental implants as the only option for an All-on-X case.
All On X Implants: Titanium Implants vs Zirconia Implants?
Dr. May is one of the ONLY choices across the world for full arch zirconia dental implants – performing all variations of All-on-X with 100% metal free ceramic dental implants.
When patients research All-on-X implants, they often focus on the number of implants used to support a full arch. But the deeper question is often this: what material do you want in your body long term—titanium or zirconia? All-on-X refers to a full-arch implant reconstruction supported by a planned number of dental implants, commonly four to six and sometimes more depending on surgical proficiency, anatomy, bite forces, and restorative goals. Titanium has been the mainstream standard with the longest clinical track record, while zirconia has become the leading metal-free full-mouth implant option for patients who prioritize biocompatibility, inflammation reduction, disease prevention, longevity and a biologically focused treatment philosophy.
Titanium All-on-X Implants: The Old Conventional Standard
Titanium implants have been used for decades and still hold the strong long-term evidence base in implant dentistry. They are widely available, are available at a low cost, are extensively studied, are promoted by universities and mainstream dental organizations, and remain the material most clinicians are trained to use. Systematic review data continue to support titanium as the traditional “gold standard,” largely because of its long history and the fact that most university and research labs are sponsored by large manufacturers or medical / dental programs which are all partnered with titanium implant manufacturers.
That’s why finding a skilled, experienced dentist in zirconia dental implants who is able to perform full mouth All-on-X with zirconia dental implants is extremely rare and highly sought after. Now you understand why patients fly from all over the USA and internationally to Dr. May for full mouth ceramic implants.
That said, the comparison is no longer just about mechanical success. The biologic conversation matters. Current literature notes that titanium can undergo corrosion under certain conditions, release particles or ions, and may be associated with inflammatory reactions in susceptible settings. Peri-implantitis also remains a real concern around titanium implants, experienced in up to 47% of all titanium implants over a 10-year span. Peri-implant disease is increasingly discussed as more than a local problem and is started to be understood as a systemic health issue because it is an inflammatory condition with potential systemic relevance.

The biologic argument for zirconia is strong when the conversation centers on plaque accumulation, soft-tissue response, and peri-implant inflammation. Reviews comparing zirconia with titanium report that zirconia offers a lower incidence of peri-implantitis, better tissue attachment, reduced biofilm accumulation, enhanced pink gingival response, excellent tooth-like esthetics, and favorable soft-tissue behavior. In short-term controlled comparisons, zirconia and titanium have shown similar survival rates, ranging from 93-96%, while a long-term zirconia 15-year study has shown almost a 98% survival rate, better than titanium implant long-term results and much better esthetically.
The biologic argument for zirconia is STRONGEST when the conversation delves into the complete absence of systemic metal toxicity and degradation, which are the most health-destructive impacts of metal titanium dental implants.
Recent reviews and randomized-trial analyses report that zirconia surfaces may accumulate less plaque and may be associated with lower inflammatory responses or more favorable bleeding indices than titanium. Experimental and laboratory data has suggested that zirconia surfaces may have a lower inflammatory potential than titanium surfaces—which is widely known by biological dentists who have placed 1000+ zirconia dental implants like Dr. May.
Finding the Right Full-Mouth Zirconia Implant Dentist
Not All Dentists Can Perform All-on-X Ceramic Implant Full Arch Cases
Zirconia full-mouth implants are DIFFERENT surgically and restoratively from metal titanium dental implants in many more ways than just the material itself. A dentist that has done hundreds of cases with titanium implants may not be able to successfully perform a full-arch ceramic implant case without experience, training, and specific restorative knowledge of full-arch zirconia implants. This is the reason why conventional implant dentists, including oral surgeons, periodontists, and dentists who may find a way to do an “easy” All-on-4 dental implant case with titanium, are unable to apply the same process and skill to do the same with ceramic implants.
Dr. May Proven Leading Dentist in All-on-X Ceramic Implant Full Arch Cases
A full arch with zirconia dental implants requires not just advanced surgical skill, but it requires SPECIFIC zirconia implant surgical skills (and training). This advanced ceramic implant training, skill, and experience is relevant to respect to every aspect of the All-on-X surgical case and is the only way to have confidence in the successful outcome of a full ceramic implant arch. Unfortunately, unless a biological dentist or oral surgeon of your choosing is placing ceramic implants on a daily basis AND has existing experience with All-on-X zirconia implants both surgically and restoratively, you may not be able to choose them with confidence.
These unique requirements are some of the reasons why Dr. May is one of the most predictable, established, and respected full-arch zirconia implant full arch dentists in the USA as an author, lecturer and a leading destination biological dentist.
Dr. May is one of the few dentists in the country (USA) offering full-arch zirconia implant restorations, from 4 to 12 zirconia implants on a single arch. Technically, it’s referred to as All-on-X because Dr. May can substitute any number of zirconia implants on the full arch, the more implants, the better the long-term predictable result. Every single implant component and the final prosthetic is 100% METAL FREE! In fact, Natural Dentistry is one of the few, if not the only USA-based biological dentists, that performs the All-In-One Biological Surgery Concept.
The All-In-One Biological Surgery Concept means ALL surgery (extractions, sinus lifts, PRF grafting, ozone, laser, biocompatible bone grafting, sinus lifts, alveoplasty, zirconia implant placement and a full temporary prosthetic is performed in a single surgery in a single day) and temporary restorative work is done between 4-6 hours in a single day and a single surgery. By many accounts, patients flying into Natural Dentistry for this life-changing surgery and full-mouth ceramic rehabilitation do so as Dr. Yuriy May is considered the best not only for his protocols and surgical experience but also due to his most esthetic results. The cases performed in our USA office are everything from highly predictable to extraordinarily challenging, often involving all teeth being removed and replaced with zirconia dental implants, but in some cases, based on patient desire and clinical specifics, mixed dentition (which means savings some natural teeth).
All-on-X Metal-Free Dentist Questions
In choosing a dentist for such a large undertaking, you must ask the right questions. While you’ve found Dr. Yuriy May one of the most experienced and surgically talented biological dentists in the USA – who has completed full-mouth double and single-arch All-on-X zirconia dental implants, 100% metal-free and successfully, you should seek care across different offices you have a sense of prices, possibilities, and compare world-class service to local abilities.
Here are some key questions to ask dentists offering full arch ceramic implants:
- How long have you been placing ceramic dental implants?
- How many ceramic implants have your placed?
- How many ceramic implants have you restored?
- How many titanium implants do you place every year?
- How many full arch cases have you performed (surgery) using titanium implants?
- How many full arch cases have you performed (surgery) using zirconia implants?
- How many upper full arch zirconia cases have you completed (both surgery and restoration together)?
- How many lower full arch zirconia cases have you completed (both surgery and restoration together)?
- How many double arch zirconia cases have you completed (both surgery and restoration together)?
- Do you offer IV Sedation yourself or with an anesthesiologist?
- When do my temporary teeth get attached to the implants?
- When you perform full arch zirconia implant cases, do you place all your implants immediately?
- When was your first All-on-X full mouth zirconia case completed? (Year or Years Ago)
- What have been the biggest changes you’ve made in the surgery or restoration process between the first case and the most recent full arch zirconia case you’ve done?
- How many zirconia implants do you prefer to place per arch?
- Do you perform lateral sinus lifts?
- What is your protocol when implants fail in a full arch?
- Am I required annually to return for maintenance?
- DEMAND to see a Before and After PHOTO and XRAY portfolio with both before photos, zirconia implants integrated (exposed abutments), and after photos with prosthetics. MUST SEE BEFORE and AFTER full pano as well.
Why Select Dr. May For Full-Mouth Ceramic Implants Case?
In the last few years Dr. May has become an internationally renowned expert in offering his full arch metal-free zirconia implant solutions to patients flying in from across the world.

Almost ALL of Natural Dentistry’s patients choose this approach to biological dental surgery for several reasons, including minimizing risks and complications, reducing time to restoration, and achieving more predictable results.
Patients visit Dr. May, a top biological dentist and zirconia implant dentist from everywhere, including from California, Texas, Michigan, Florida, North Carolina, Arizona, and 35+ other states.
Zirconia Implants for Full Mouth in USA or Switzerland?
The choices for seeing the top experts in the full-mouth ceramic implant world are limited, and most patients have to travel.
Dr. May’s traveling patients specifically select him for his turnkey approach, which completes full-mouth zirconia implant arch cases in 3-4 days for the initial surgery, and then for 1-2 day photos for 4-5 more trips. Our destination clinic as it is naturally optimized for the logistics of traveling from out of state. While not always the case, many times the all-in-one ceramic implant surgeries avoid sinus lifts, as the sinus lift procedures typically add an additional risk level and a higher degree of complications post-surgically. Depending on the patients, Dr. May executes all levels of complexity in full mouth ceramic implant All-on-X cases, including lateral sinus lifts, ridge splits, block grafting.
Understanding Your Full-Arch Zirconia Implants Globally
Europe: Dr. Yuriy May outside of New York or Dr. Volz at Swiss Biohealth Dental Clinic in Switzerland.
USA: Dr. Yuriy May Outside of New York
The main differences, apart from choosing USA vs Switzerland, is unlike the Swiss BIohealth Clinic, all of Natural Dentistry’s surgeries and restorations are performed by the one and only Dr. May while at Switzerland they have a team of restorative dentists, surgeons, and lab technicians who will be working on the patient during their stay.
Main differences include easier access to post-op care, less intense travel (staying in the same continent), and a shorter stay. At Dr. May’s USA clinic due to our turnkey processes and all care being provided by a single, masterful practitioner, while at Switzerland your stay is coordinated among several different providers. In the USA, your full mouth zirconia implant stay with Dr. May for approximately 4 days, while in Switzerland, patients are asked to stay up to 2 weeks for post-op care.

Difference Between Titanium “All on 6” and Zirconia Ceramic “All on 6” Dental Implants?
Zirconia full-mouth implants are DIFFERENT surgically and restoratively from metal titanium dental implants in many more ways than just the material itself. A dentist that has done hundreds of case with titanium implants may not be able to successfully perform a full-arch ceramic implant case without experience, training, and specific restorative knowledge of full-arch zirconia implants. This is the reason why conventional implant dentists, including oral surgeons, periodontists, and dentists who may find a way to do an “easy” All-on-4 dental implant case with titanium are unable to apply the same process and skill to do the same with ceramic implants.

This advanced ceramic implant training, skill, and experience is relevant to respect to every aspect of the All-on-X surgical case and is the only way to have confidence in the successful outcome of a full ceramic implant arch.
Key Differences in Full Arch Titanium Dental Implants
Zirconia Implants for Full Arch
- Parallel Placement
- Zirconia implants can only be placed parallel
- Cannot angle implants
- Cannot use angled abutments
- Zirconia implants require more bone (than Titanium)
- Zirconia Implants requires sufficient bone level for primary stability, a minimum of 8-9 mm
- Metal Implants require less bone, and no bone
- Zirconia Implants require healthy, dense bone
- Zirconia implants are cement-retained prosthetics.
- Titanium Implants are screw-retained to the prosthetic
- Zirconia implant retianed prosthetics do not get removed easily for cleanings
Titanium Full Arch Implants
- Titanium Angled Placement
- Titanium has many shapes and angles of implants
- Metal multi-unit abutments with angulation available
- Titanium implants require less bone
- Require less bone, as little as 5-6 mm
- Titanium Implants are screw-retained to the prosthetic
- Titanium screw-retained prosthetics can be removed for cleaning
- Titanium implants can be used for patients who have no bone left and are placed into bones outside of the mandible and maxilla. Zygomatic and pterygoid implants are available.
Titanium All-on-x Surgery Techniques, Placement and Options
Understanding that titanium implants, which represent 99.9% of the full arch dental cases, have been used by dentists for full mouth reconstruction and implant-supported prosthetics for decades, have certain advantages: They are manufactured by over 20 implant manufacturers and come in all shapes, sizes, and connections, and have what is known as “custom abutments,” which allow the titanium implants to be far more forgiving in the hands of a dentist.
Titanium dental implants are almost exclusively placed as 3-piece implants – which means a small and tolerable mistake in surgical placement (both location and angle) of titanium implant can easily be fixed with a custom titanium abutment, which will even out the missed angle or the slightly skewed placement.
Surgeons and implant dentists are ONLY trained to place titanium implants and so it is the most even those willing to try zirconia dental implants don’t know how to work with the single one piece design or parallel placement, making it an unrealistic undertaking for a conventional dentist.
Now that we’ve covered titanium implant advantages being
1) they are mass-produced by over 20 manufacturers and have unlimited variations to their technical lineups and product selection
2) they have the ability to have custom abutments made to make the case easier to restore or to fix any less than perfect implant placement, offering a forgiving solution to conventional surgeons and implant dentists
3) which allows them to be used as angled implants (angled means not parallel in the mouth) since the custom abutments can be angled in a reverse direction to achieve the appropriate angulation with which to attach a prosthetic.
4) Metal implants can cost as low as $50-$80 an implant, making them very cost effective
Ceramic Implant All-on-X Surgery Techniques, Placement and Restorative Options
Zirconia implants, which are placed by ONLY the highest skilled biological surgical dentists like Dr. May, are more expensive, costing north of $800 per zirconia implant; difficult and less forgiving to place and restore, requiring precise surgical technique that allows for zero margin of error; and requiring more bone and grafting. While zirconia implants have been approved in the USA by the FDA since 2007 and have over 20 years of research, there are still limited manufacturers compared to metal implants. Only the most proven and highly successful FDA-available brands in the USA are utilized by Dr. Yuriy May. Almost all of Dr. May’s full arch zirconia implant cases use SDS Zirconia Implants, with a mix of one piece and two piece implant types. 100% of his placement is parallel, unlike the angled nuances of titanium implants, making zirconia implant placement and restorations much like natural teeth (which are parallel in the jaw).
It’s important to understand that while zirconia dental implants are VERY strong, they have less flexural give than a metal alloy implant. This limits the ceramic implants to being manufactured with very little angulation, and almost all zirconia dental implants are made completely straight.
Zirconia implants also have very specific restorative limitations that again, are mastered by Dr. May, but many conventional dentists would have a difficult time restoring a full arch of zirconia dental implants without the flexibility of titanium abutments with angulation and customization options. What this means is zirconia implants in a full arch must be placed perfectly “parallel”; otherwise, the restorative aspects will be extremely difficult and increase the likelihood of failure and zirconia bridge breakage (in addition to implant failure long term).
While this makes zirconia dental implants much harder to handle by conventional dentists and oral surgeon, they are refined tools of beauty and biocompatibility in an experienced biological dentists like Dr. May – allowing him to transform lives with his All-on-X zirconia dental implant procedures.
The challenge of full mouth reconstruction, regardless of implant material risk, is always present in clinical terms with surgical complications and long-term viability. Nothing is without risk—both zirconia and titanium full arch cases are large surgical procedures that must be approached with reasonable expectations and full patient compliance to reduce complication risk.
A dentist must disclose all alternative options to patients when offering treatment – but 99% of dentists don’t even KNOW that full arch ceramic dental implants are an option! This is why Dr. May lectures around the country at major conferences and to dentists of all specialties to educate them about the successful cases he’s completed for full-arch and double-arch patients with 100% zirconia dental implants. He has spoken on webinars,
