Implant and Implant Prosthesis Applications
Today, implant application is the first treatment option that should be chosen to compensate for the patient's tooth loss. Implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium that are compatible with biological tissues.
Before implant application, the bone is examined with 3D dental tomography and it is decided whether the jawbone is suitable for treatment. The application of the implant is performed under local anesthesia and is a painless procedure. After 2-3 months of healing following implant placement, the porcelain-on-implant phase is started. In our clinic, we use an occlusal screw system as a porcelain over implant. With this system, annual control sessions are made easier and implant treatments are more successful in the long term as there is no possibility of adhesive leaking into biological tissues.
Implant applications at the same time as tooth extraction are a type of treatment we frequently apply, if the bone structure is suitable. Before the procedure, a dental tomography is taken and the structure of the jawbone is examined. If the bone structure is suitable, the implant is placed following the extraction of the tooth. In some cases, a temporary prosthesis can be made immediately on top of it, so you will never be toothless. Then, a 2-3 month healing period is expected and a permanent prosthesis is made.
