Implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium and shaped like natural tooth roots, which are placed into the jawbone through a minor surgical procedure.
Titanium is a biocompatible material. It forms a special bond with the bone, allowing it to integrate at the implantation site at the cellular level. Once this integration is complete (2–6 months), the process of preparing the prosthesis—known as the “superstructure”—begins. Today, implants are indisputably the best alternative for replacing missing natural teeth. Implants can be used to replace a single missing tooth, several missing teeth, or in cases of complete edentulism.
For an implant to be placed, the jawbone in the target area must have sufficient height and width to accommodate the implant. If this is not the case, necessary procedures (such as sinus lifts, bone grafts, and the use of membranes, etc.) may be performed to optimize the area. The quality of the existing bone is one of the factors affecting the success of the implant. In younger patients, bone development must be complete. There is no upper age limit for adults. Implants can be placed in anyone in good general health. Oral hygiene is also particularly important in implant procedures. Therefore, the patient’s attention to oral care plays a major role in the success of the implant. The procedure is performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the preference of the dentist and the patient. As with any surgical procedure, some discomfort is to be expected. Anesthesia and sedation will almost completely eliminate any discomfort during the surgery. After the surgery, there may be pain similar to that experienced after a tooth extraction.

After the procedure, a waiting period of approximately 2 to 6 months is required for the implant to fuse with the jawbone (osseointegration), although this varies depending on the individual case. If necessary, a temporary prosthesis may be used during this period. Subsequently, implant-supported prostheses are placed over the course of several sessions, depending on the specifics of the case.
İmplant tedavisinin avantajları
Daha estetik ve daha doğal bir görünüm sağlar. Dişler stabil kalır. İmplant üstüne yapılan total (damak), parsiyel veya sabit protezler daha konforludur. Tutuculuk maksimumdur. Çekilmiş dişlerin olduğu kemik bölgelerinde zamanla madde kaybı olur ve kemikler gittikçe incelir. Buna bağlı yumuşak dokularda da bir takım değişiklikler olur. İmplantların yerleştirilmesi ile bu kemik kaybı engellenir. Çiğneme fonksiyonu düzeldiği için daha dengeli ve iyi beslenme sağlanır. Böylece iyi çiğneyememeye bağlı olarak oluşmuş mide problemleri giderilir. Doğal görünüm ve estetiğin sağlanması ile kişinin kendine güveni artar.
Detaylı Bilgi →implant-supported dentures
Implants provide solutions to significant problems not only in the treatment of missing teeth but also in the field of prosthodontics. In cases where there are no teeth or only a few teeth remaining in the mouth, fixed or removable implant-supported prostheses are fabricated for patients with sufficient bone levels. Implant-supported prostheses can increase chewing strength and enable comfortable speech. Implant-supported dentures can improve chewing ability and facilitate comfortable speech. Patients who have lost all their teeth prior to implant treatment While patients may have difficulty using removable dentures, implant support now makes it easier to use all types of dentures—whether removable or fixed—and provides patients with permanent solutions.

Diş hekimi olarak, ana hedefimiz doğal dişlerinizi korumak ve mümkün olduğunca uzun süre sağlıklı tutmaktır. Bununla birlikte, bazen çeşitli nedenlerle (travma, gömük 20 yaş dişleri, ortodontik tedavi..) diş çekimi gerekebilir. Nedeni ne olursa olsun, diş çekimi çok rutin yapılan bir işlem değildir. Diş çekiminde, öncelikle çekim yapılacak bölgeye anestezi yapılır. Anestezi tamamlanıp çekim yapıldıktan sonra, size dikkat etmeniz gerekenler hakkında bilgi verilir.
