Zirconia Restorations, Titanium Implants: Is That a DOUBLE STANDARD?
In this episode, Dr. Rob breaks down the ongoing debate between titanium and zirconia in implant dentistry. Drawing on his background in engineering, he explains the crucial difference between strength and toughness—and why it matters when choosing restorative materials.
