Ceramic Dental Implants
Metal-free, biocompatible tooth replacement that honors your body's natural healing
Experience the optimal tooth replacement solution that looks, feels, and functions like your natural teeth — placed by Portland's only dual-certified biological dentist.
What are Ceramic
Dental Implants?
The Most Biologically Compatible
Tooth Replacement Available
The metal-free alternative to titanium — integrates naturally with your immune system and energy meridians without foreign materials.
Why Ceramic Performs
Differently Than Titanium
No metal ions, no corrosion, no energetic interference. Made from zirconium oxide — already fully oxidized, it does not degrade in the body over time.
More Than Placement —
Built for Long-Term Healing
Precision 3D planning and surgical guidance support accurate placement and lasting bone integration — not just implant placement.
Teeth That Look, Feel, and
Function Like Your Own
Biological support means beautiful aesthetics and full chewing function for years — teeth that behave like real teeth because they're treated like real teeth.
What Makes Blodgett Dental Care's
Dental Implant Process Different?
We create a comprehensive healing environment that supports your body's natural integration process while eliminating materials that could interfere with your optimal health. Patients travel from across Portland, Oregon, and the country to receive this level of care.
Why We Choose Ceramic Over Titanium
Every implant we place is 100% metal-free ceramic — no metal ions, no corrosion risk, no energetic interference. For patients with metal sensitivity or autoimmune conditions, this matters.
Your Immune System Gets a Vote First
BioComp testing confirms the materials are compatible with your immune system before placement — not just tolerated by the general population. Most dentists skip this. We don't.
Ozone, PRF & Nutrition in Every Case
We support your body's natural healing with ozone therapy, platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), and personalized nutrition guidance — built into every case, not offered as extras.
Whole-Body Health, Not Just Tooth Replacement
We consider how your implant impacts your energy, immunity, and long-term wellness — not just tooth replacement. A practice Portland has trusted for over 25 years.

Who Is the Ideal Candidate
for Ceramic Dental Implants?

- You have missing or failing teeth and want the most biocompatible option
- You have metal sensitivities, autoimmune conditions, or chronic inflammation
- You're concerned about the long-term health effects of titanium implants

- They need a whole-body approach considering meridian connections and immune response
- They want PRF, ozone therapy, and nutrition support built into their treatment

Patient Testimonials:
A Holistic Approach to Dental Implants
These are the voices of our patients and their stories. Experience first-hand the sense of unique community and individual care in Dr. Blodgett's practice.
Titanium Removal & Life-Changing Results
Three months ago, I made the important decision to travel to PDX and have my titanium implant (and surrounding metal tacks) removed by Dr. Blodgett and the team, an experience that has profoundly changed my life for the better. The implant was located on the meridian line of the reproductive system, which we suspected might be contributing to my endometriosis... The moment we removed the titanium implant (which had been corroding!), I knew we had made the right decision. Immediately I could take a clearer, deeper breath and my body relaxed... Not only have I seen a significant decrease in pain and endometriosis flares, but I've also experienced a deeper connection to my body, improved breathing, reduced inflammation, enhanced mental clarity, and a surge in overall energy.

Dental Tourism Patient3 Ceramic Implants in One Visit
I recently finished replacing three of my front teeth with Dr. Blodgett and his amazing team! They made what I was told to be 'impossible' possible! I went from having 3 infected root canals to 3 ceramic implants and temporary crowns in a single visit. I truly believe Blodgett Dental Care is the best in America when it comes to this specific field of dentistry!

One of the few dentists in the area who will do Zirconium implants. Have not needed pain medicine after procedures. He uses the latest holistic methods. Lucky to have him and his team on my side.

Portland, OregonTraveling from Oregon for World-Class Biological Care
My name is Carol and I live in Oregon. I was told by my local dentist that my front tooth would need to come out and be replaced with an implant. I searched for and found a biological dentist — Dr. Kelly Blodgett in Portland, Oregon. The level of professionalism and expertise was 100% different than my local dentist. When my tooth was removed a porcelain crown was put in place and four and a half months later my permanent crown/implant was in place. I was sent home with homeopathic remedies, not prescription pain medication. The pain was minimal and easily controlled. I highly recommend Dr. Kelly Blodgett and his team. They are real professionals and provide excellent dentistry.

Ceramic implants are made from zirconium oxide — a material that is already fully oxidized and does not degrade over time. Unlike titanium, they are 100% metal-free, carry no risk of corrosion, and do not trigger immune responses or disrupt natural energy meridians. They are also white and tooth-colored, eliminating the gray shadows that can appear at the gum line with titanium implants.
Yes. Zirconia implants are extremely strong and backed by research and real-world long-term success. Combined with our 3D CBCT implant planning and surgical guidance systems, they provide excellent chewing functionality and should last many years. The material is also naturally resistant to plaque and inflammation, supporting long-term gum health.
Before placement, we use BioComp testing to confirm the materials are compatible with your unique immune system — not just tolerated by the general population. We then support integration with ozone therapy, platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) drawn from your own blood, and personalized protocols for detox, nutrition, and immune support.
Every implant journey is individually tailored using CBCT 3D imaging for ultra-precise planning and minimally invasive surgical techniques. Your treatment includes ozone therapy to disinfect and support tissue regeneration, PRF to naturally accelerate healing, and a personalized biological protocol designed to support your body's full integration process.
Absolutely. Whether you need a single tooth replacement, multiple implants, or a full-arch restoration, zirconia implants can provide an excellent biological solution. We'll work with you to determine whether ceramic implants are the right fit for your health goals, lifestyle, and long-term wellness plan.
With proper care and our biological protocols, ceramic implants should last many years. Because zirconium oxide is already fully oxidized, it does not degrade over time the way metals can. The material is also naturally resistant to plaque buildup and inflammation, which further supports long-term implant and gum health.
Yes. Blodgett Dental Care is one of the most sought-after destinations for dental tourism in the Pacific Northwest and nationally. Patients travel from across Oregon, the United States, and internationally to receive ceramic implant care that combines biological protocols, BioComp testing, and 25+ years of specialized expertise that most practices simply cannot offer.
In many cases, yes. With precision biological tooth removal and immediate ceramic implant placement, we can place your implant and a temporary crown in the same visit. This approach supports healing, preserves the natural socket environment, and reduces overall treatment time — particularly valuable for dental tourism patients coordinating travel.
Ceramic implants are often the preferred choice for patients with metal sensitivities, autoimmune conditions, or chronic inflammation. Because they are 100% metal-free and biocompatibility-tested before placement, they eliminate the risks of metal ion release, galvanic corrosion, and immune disruption that can occur with titanium implants.
Most practices that offer ceramic implants do so as an alternative material within a conventional approach. At Blodgett Dental Care, the entire treatment philosophy is biological — from BioComp immune testing and 3D precision planning to ozone therapy, PRF, nutrition guidance, and whole-body meridian awareness. Dr. Blodgett is Oregon's only dual-certified biological dentist, with 25+ years of specialized experience and patients who travel from 50+ states and countries for his care.
