Made intentionally for dental implants, Roxolid by Straumann is a titanium/zirconium alloy that’s 50% stronger than pure titanium. In addition to superior strength, Roxolid integrated better than titanium with bone tissue. Roxolid is in testing, but preliminary results from the first clinical trial were revealed in Warsaw, Poland at the 17th Annual Scientific Meeting of the European Association for Osseointegration. If tests go well, Roxalid may be on the market next year.
