In classical implant treatment, it is necessary to wait between 3 and 6 months after the implants are placed. Today, with the developing technology, it is now possible to leave the clinic with special methods, lower maxilla, full toothless mouth, four or six implants on the same day or the next day.
It is possible to leave the clinic on the same day or the next day with 4 zygomatic implants, two on the right and left, on the upper jaw zygomatic bone without grafting (bone powder) in the upper jaw. The same treatment is performed with the All On Four technique on the lower jaw.
Today, the importance of implant work does not end with only performing chewing functions. Now the expectations of the physician and the patient are function, phonetics and very good aesthetics. In this, it is important to create natural gums with special techniques and to provide natural aesthetics in the production of implant-supported prostheses. The life of implants with healthy gums is lifelong with a suitable prosthesis.
Dental implants are titanium materials that mimic the root of the tooth. It is applied to replace missing teeth in tooth loss. With the developing methods, it is also possible to make an over-implant prosthesis on the day of the implant. Implant planning is done with the help of intraoral examination and x-ray before the operation.
The area to be implanted is pre-anesthetized. Thus, the patient does not feel pain. For patients who are afraid of the procedure, implant surgery can be performed under sedation or general anesthesia.
Dental implants are guaranteed for life. Only the prosthesis on it should be regularly maintained. The life of the prosthesis is about 8-10 years. Afterwards, only the coating part needs to be replaced.
Implant treatments are the most accurate treatment option that protects the patient's bone and protects their existing teeth. In the absence of a single tooth, the two adjacent teeth can be reduced and a bridge can be made. However, this will cause the loss of healthy tooth tissues. However, by making a single implant, the treatment can be completed without damaging the existing teeth.
In patients with multiple tooth loss, removable prostheses can be used as an alternative to implant treatments. Removable dentures are designed for edentulous areas. However, before going to sleep, it is necessary to remove the prosthesis and rest the tissues. It is difficult to deal with.
