Rigorous, proven and well-tested protocols guarantee us a high -quality work, adapted to the situation. For a very small number of patients, the only possible risk may be the mobilisation of the implant. It will then have to be removed and replaced after a healing period. This eventuality only delays the treatment outcomes without compromising them.
Frequently Asked
Questions
DENTAL IMPLANT
ALL YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT DENTAL IMPLANT
Does it hurt?
No, an implant is put in place under local anesthesia, with or without conscious sedation.
How long do dental implants last?
Usually, dental implants are amongst the long-lasting treatments. Proper dental hygiene and a rigorous prophylaxis promote the longevity of implant and prosthetic treatment.
Is there an age limit for implants?
No, there isn’t. However, a pre-implantation visit is required. During the visit, a 3D oral X-ray scan provides assessment of several important details (bone volumes, infections, dental root fracture)
Someone told me I do not have enough bone volume?
Only a 3D dental X-ray allows to precisely calculate bone volumes. In case of an insufficient volume, alternative solutions can be proposed such as filling the missing bone volume with a replacement (sinus lift) or to realise bone grafts.
Is it safe?
How Is Implant Treatment Performed?
The treatment process depends on the type of screw to be used and the condition of the jawbone. In addition, the treatment process of each patient varies according to their individual needs and conditions. Treatment may usually require two or three appointments. The first appointment is a consultation, and the second appointment is usually a surgical appointment. The dentist decides the number of subsequent appointments. At the first appointment, the oral surgeon evaluates the patient’s condition and determines the treatment plan together with the patient. In addition, the surgeon can also perform three-dimensional scans by reviewing the patient’s oral health status.
To Whom Can Implant Treatment Be Applied?
This treatment can be easily applied if the patient does not have any chronic health problems or allergies to drugs that prevent recovery, and if the general health condition is under control. Apart from this, it can be applied to anyone who has one or more missing teeth, has a full-grown jawbone, has enough bone to fix the screws, and has healthy oral tissues.
Who Cannot Have Implant Teeth?
Patients with difficult-to-control chronic conditions such as diabetes or heart disease may not be suitable for implant dental treatment. Your dentist will decide whether the implant method is suitable for you. In addition, the dentist can make a decision by contacting your heart doctor.
How long does the implant treatment?
The treatment process is divided into two as surgery and prosthesis. With each passing day, thanks to the developments in technology, the duration of surgical treatment has been shortened to 3 days. However, if sinus lifting or bone grafting procedures are needed in the treatment, this period is extended. The prosthetic part of the treatment proceeds similarly to the classical prosthesis treatment.
What are the Points to Consider While Having Implant Treatment?
- The first step in this process is the development of a personalized treatment plan. The plan is for special needs. The plan should be prepared by a team of specially trained and expert professionals in the field of oral surgery and restorative dentistry. This team approach provides coordinated care based on the implant option that works best for you.
- The implant must be made of pure titanium material.
- It has a patented and successful brand.
- A sterile practice and surgical procedure environment is required.
- It is very important that the jawbone is compatible with the implant.
How Long Is the Life of the Implant?
As long as adequate attention is paid to tooth cleaning, the life of the implant is between 25 and 30 years on average. It may even be a lifetime use. If the implant is to be long-lasting, some points should be considered. Extra attention should be paid to oral hygiene after treatment. An interface brush should be used for cleaning the teeth. Dental floss should be preferred in order to get the best results in oral hygiene.
How Many Days Does the Pain Last After Implant?
Local anesthesia is applied during the procedure and the patient does not feel any pain. In some cases, if the individual is afraid of the procedure, the surgical procedure is performed under general anesthesia. A very comfortable recovery is achieved after the operation with adequate care and regular use of medication. Many patients state that the pain experienced after the operation is less than the pain experienced after tooth extraction. There is mild pain for a few days after the application. However, you can get rid of these pains with simple painkillers. Very few patients experience swelling and pain after treatment. A few days after the treatment, people continue their normal lives.
How Many Hours After Implant Insertion Can You Eat?
Feeding should not be started immediately after the procedure. It is necessary to wait at least 2 hours to eat food. In fact, for the first 24 hours, warm and soft foods should be consumed instead of solid, very hot and cold foods.
Is there any harm to the implant?
It has no harmful effects on health. Applying a cold compress near the area where the procedure was performed for the first 12 hours after the surgery helps to minimize swelling and pain complaints.
Will Implant Be Like Real Tooth?
Today, it is an alternative that provides the closest appearance and use to real teeth. It is more functional and aesthetic than conventional prosthesis and dental bridges. Since the titanium in the implants fuses with the jawbone, it does not slip and does not make a sound. In addition, it does not cause bone damage as in fixed bridges or prostheses, and there is no decay like natural teeth.

ZIRCONIA CROWN
ALL YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT ZIRCONIA CROWN
Does Zirconium Teeth Break?
Zirconium is a special material used in dentistry. With the use of zirconium in dentistry, durability close to metal infrastructure is provided. The reasons why zirconium does not reflect from the bottom, as other materials do, does not cause discoloration of the gums and resists corrosion.
Is There an Age Limit for Zirconium Application?
It can be applied at any age starting from the age of 18, if the patient’s dental care habits are well established and there is no psychological or general health problem that will prevent treatment. The reason for starting the treatment is 18 because the development of the jaw bones is expected to be completed. The upper age limit for zirconium teeth is determined by the general health status of the patient. If there is no problem that may interfere with the treatment, zirconium treatment can be performed at any age that the patient needs.

- Helps keep teeth looking bright by preventing them from becoming stained by food, drinks, and tobacco
- Strengthens your teeth so that you can enjoy healthy, beautiful smiles for the rest of your life!
What should I look for when choosing the right dentist for me?
Choosing a dentist who “clicks” with you and your family is important, and you may wish to consider several dentists before making your final decision. During your first visit, you should be able to determine whether the dentist is right for you. During your appointment, consider the following:
- Is the appointment schedule convenient?
- Is the office easy to get to and close by?
- Does the office appear to be clean and orderly?
- Was your medical and dental history recorded and placed in a permanent file?
- Does the dentist explain techniques for good oral health?
- Is information about cost presented to you before treatment is scheduled?
- Is your dentist a member of the ADA (American Dental Association)?
How can I take care of my teeth between dental checkups?
- Always remember to brush your teeth at least two times a day, and floss at least once!
- Make sure to use toothpaste that contains fluoride, and ask your dentist if you need a fluoride rinse. This will help prevent cavities.
- Avoid foods with a lot of sugar (sugar increases the amount of bacteria that grows in your mouth causing more plaque and possibly cavities) and avoid tobacco (this can stain your teeth, cause gum disease, and eventually lead to oral cancer).
- Don’t be afraid to brush your tongue! By brushing your tongue, you will remove food particles and reduce the amount of plaque-causing bacteria. Tongue brushing also helps keep your breath fresh.
- Be sure to schedule your routine checkup. It is recommended that you visit the dentist every six months.
