Ceradyne has produced ceramic dental brackets since 1986
when the company co-invented brackets using Transtar®,
a translucent polycrystalline aluminum oxide (TPA) that
has helped change the lives of millions of people by improving
their self-image while undergoing orthodontic treatment.
Another Ceradyne dental innovation is the zirconium
oxide implant. These injection molded components are an
appealing white color that eliminate darkness at the gum
line often seen when titanium inserts are used.
Ceradyne's molded ceramic implants, abutments and crowns
offer a cost effective alternative to expensive machining,
with more consistent part reproducibility and less induced stress.
These components, produced from zirconium oxide, not only provide
the strength, toughness and durability required for dental
applications, but they also offer the visual appeal that has been
Ceradyne's trademark.
