In many ways wouldn't you expect a polycrystalline ceramic mouthpiece to be similar to a crystal (i.e. high density glass) mouthpiece? Both will be "stiff" materials relative to hard rubber, plastic, and wood. The ceramic will resonate similarly to crystal if the ceramic is substantially non-porous (fine china dinnerware rings much the way crystal glassware does). The feel of the ceramic mouthpiece in ones mouth will probably not be as smooth as crystal, hard rubber, or plastic unless the ceramic were glazed (given a glassy overcoat) externally.
