Implant Treatment
What is a dental implant?
Dental implant is a titanium screw system used to make prosthesis on missing teeth. Dental implants placed in the jawbone function like tooth roots. In single tooth deficiencies, it is possible to replace the missing tooth without touching the adjacent healthy teeth, and in multiple tooth deficiencies, it is possible to use fixed prostheses instead of removable prostheses thanks to dental implants. In cases of complete edentulism, it is possible to fix removable dentures, which are difficult to use, especially in the lower jaw, and tend to constantly come out of the mouth, with implants.
What is the treatment process for dental implants?
At the end of implant treatment in dentistry, the completion of dentures takes longer than classical treatments because it is necessary to wait 2.5 to 4 months for the titanium structure to integrate with the bone, and an additional 6 months if any intervention is made to the jaw bone or if the sinus cavity is removed in the upper jaw. However, the results obtained after this period are quite satisfactory and much longer lasting.
What are the advantages of dental implants?
Especially in patients who have been toothless for many years, their current prostheses lose their fit over time and begin to move and cause dents, as the bone continues to change. Since implant-based dentures are made on a fixed foundation, they do not have the ability to move or come out of the mouth. It can be applied to people who do not want a removable prosthesis or whose bone has lost its grip.
Is dental implant surgery difficult?
Operations performed under local anesthesia by numbing only the area where the dental implant will be placed are painless. The healing process can be overcome by taking the prescribed medications before the operation, using antiseptic mouthwashes after the procedure, and good oral care.
Will my face be very swollen after the dental implant operation? Will I have a lot of pain?
Slight swelling or color changes on the cheek are expected, but the edema will quickly decrease with the application of cold tampons in the first 24 hours. Severe pain is not observed, and the painkillers recommended by the doctor are sufficient to easily control the pain that may occur on the first day.
What is the dental implant process? How long will it take for my teeth to be completed?
The implants are expected to fuse with the bone in an average of 3 months in the upper jaw and 2 months in the lower jaw, and porcelain coatings are applied on them. If additional procedures are performed in the presence of thin or insufficiently high bone, the waiting period may extend up to 6 months.
Is a seamless dental implant possible?
It is possible in cases where a single tooth can be extracted and an implant can be placed in the same session without making any incision in the extraction space.
Is there any possibility of harm from dental implants? Is it true that sometimes the body does not accept it?
Dental implants are made of titanium. Titanium, which is highly biocompatible with the human body, is a non-toxic precious metal that does not pose any risk of allergy.
Are dental implant applications suitable for me?
It is not recommended for individuals who have a significant systemic disease that is not under control, or who have recently received radiotherapy or chemotherapy. However, if the disease is controlled, the implant can be applied to anyone. If sufficient bone cannot be detected during the examination, implants can be placed after first creating the bone infrastructure with additional procedures.
I smoke, can I get a dental implant?
Many studies have proven that smoking prevents the integration of the implant and the bone. The risk of the implant falling out is 2-3 times higher than normal in smokers.
Are dental implants long-lasting?
The lifespan of a dental implant is like natural teeth. It can be used for many years as long as normal oral and dental care is done well.
I don’t want to wait 2-3 months. Can I use my own dentures with implants?
Yes, thanks to mini dental implant technology, existing removable prostheses can be used after surgery by adapting them to implants.
