Implant

A dental implant is a small post, usually made of titanium, that serves as a substitute for the root of the tooth. A connector, known as an abutment, is placed on, or built into, the top of the dental implant, which connects it to the replacement tooth. Finally, a crown, a replacement tooth, is custom fabricated to match your natural teeth, completing the dental implant.

Implant prices applied in our country differ in many clinics. This situation creates many question marks in the minds of patients who want to have implants for the treatment of missing teeth. The main reason for this difference in prices is the brand of the implant applied. Especially in recent years, many dental implant brands have stepped into the sector in our country and all over the world. Firms have determined various competitive strategies to increase their market share in the market. The first thing to consider when choosing a brand is the completion of the scientific studies of the implant being marketed and the reliability of the seller company in the sector. In addition, the bone powder used in cases where the jawbone is insufficient is also very important in determining the total implant cost.

Every year, implant prices are determined by the Turkish Dental Association. Implant prices determined are prohibited from being shared over the internet due to competition rules. Therefore, you must be examined in our clinic in order to obtain a treatment plan and to learn the price information.

The implant is called an artificial tooth root, which is placed in the jawbone of the person and made using materials suitable for the person's body, in order to restore the function and appearance of the teeth lost for any reason.

One of the most important goals of modern dentistry is to restore the patient's normal contour, function, aesthetics, speech comfort and health. Most of the patients prefer implant prostheses due to many factors such as ease of use, naturalness and psychological integrity in the patient.

Comprehensive examination of each case and the selection of the smallest details, starting from the materials, to the shapes and colors, is what distinguishes us as Pera Dental Polyclinic.

Frequently Asked Questions

Implants have been used in the treatment of missing teeth for over 50 years. Implants, which are frequently used treatment methods today, have many advantages. These:

  • Does not harm neighboring teeth; It is applied as an alternative to dentures planned in the form of bridges in the treatment of one or more tooth deficiencies. In this way, there is no need to take any action that may cause problems in the future, such as cutting and reducing the teeth adjacent to the cavity.
  • It is aesthetic; It replaces your own teeth aesthetically with its developing superstructure options.
  • Prevents bone resorption; Bone resorption, which starts in the missing tooth area with tooth extraction, is stopped by placing the implant. In addition, the loss of lip support, which is a sign of aging especially in the anterior region, is prevented.
  • It is applied as an alternative to palate-shaped prostheses; It eliminates the problems that appear in prostheses that can be inserted and removed with implant applications. It allows elderly patients to eat comfortably. In cases where the jawbone is not suitable for fixed prosthesis, it prevents the prosthesis from moving by supporting the removable prosthesis.
  • It is reliable; Today, the rate of union of dental implants to the bone is quite high with correct application.

Especially in the first month, care should be taken not to put too much load on the teeth and chewing must be done carefully. Chewing tough foods should be avoided, unilateral chewing should not be performed as much as possible.

For those who do not have advanced bone loss in the jawbone and who do not need advanced surgical techniques, this method can be applied safely.

A temporary fixed (non-moving) prosthesis is made in the same day in which dental implants are placed. This gives the patient both aesthetic and psychological comfort. Moreover, gingival healing is ensured in a way that is the closest to natural way.

Dental implants can be applied to anyone with sufficient height and thickness of the jawbone. Generally this procedure is simpler than tooth extraction. In patients with insufficient bone structure, advanced surgical techniques are used to enhance bone width and height. Hence, implant therapy can be performed on anyone by using advanced surgical techniques.

In traditional implant treatment, prosthesis are made 2 - 5 months after the implant is inserted. But it is possible to load implants even within the same day by carrying out the technical evaluations in the patients with adequate bone structure.

First, Intraoral and radiological examination of the patient who applies to our clinic for dental implants is performed, and it is evaluated whether there is a condition that prevents implantation in general health status. If there is no problem in its systemic condition and the existing jawbone is suitable, after the necessary preparations, a root or cylindrical dental implant is placed where the missing tooth is. After 1 week, the stitches are removed and depending on the condition of the bone applied, the implant's union to the jawbone is expected.

In the second stage,

Finally implant treatment is completed by passing the measurement stage.

In routine applications, after being placed in the bone, implants wait there for 2-3 months without functioning. Resistance of bone during implant placement is one of the determinative factors for waiting period. Furthermore, additional surgical procedures may prolong the duration for 2-3 month.

Implant therapy, which is a surgical procedure, is mostly performed under local anesthesia. In terms of patient comfort, it is similar to tooth extraction. In case of some special conditions, it may need to be performed under general anesthesia.
