The objective of this narrative overview is to discuss several in vitro and in vivo studies regarding the performance of one-piece zirconia implants in combination with the description of two clinical scenarios where zirconia implant prototypes were utilized with emphasis on the possible scientific and clinical concerns that may affect the functional, biological and esthetic long-term outcomes.
