Course Description

Immediate Zirconia Implants: Excellence for High Aesthetic Demands

Rising aesthetic expectations, growing patient demand for metal-free treatment concepts, and an expanding understanding of peri-implant biology have driven the development of modern ceramic implant systems. Today, zirconia implants are a scientifically validated and clinically reliable alternative to titanium implants, particularly for biologically oriented treatment concepts and cases with high aesthetic demands.


This event focuses on immediate implant placement with zirconia implants. Dr. David Cowhig, one of Australia’s most experienced clinicians in metal-free dentistry, will present the scientific principles behind ceramic implantology and share his clinical experience on how zirconia implants can be successfully and predictably integrated into daily practice.

The programme covers the current scientific evidence on zirconia implants, the Swiss Biohealth Concept as a supporting treatment protocol, and the specific characteristics of the SDS zirconia implant system, including its tissue-level design, Dynamic Thread®, and prepable tulip. Further emphasis will be placed on immediate implant placement, particularly in the aesthetic zone, as well as the prosthetic workflow for prepable ceramic implants. Selected clinical cases from Dr. Cowhig’s own practice will provide practical insights into their clinical application.

In addition, Tim Klippstein, Vice President EMEA at SDS Swiss Dental Solutions, will provide a commercial perspective, exploring the opportunities ceramic implants can offer practices looking to meet the needs of a growing, health-conscious patient segment.

The event is designed for dentists and implantologists who want to deepen their understanding of modern ceramic implantology and explore how zirconia implants can be effectively integrated into their daily practice.
