Implant is an application developed for the treatment of missing teeth. The ease of use due to its stability has increased the demand for the application. The practice is developing day by day with the increase in demand.
Implant is the application of an artificial tooth root by screwing it in place of the missing tooth or teeth. It can be applied to the entire mouth as well as to single tooth missing teeth. Although there is no upper age limit for this, it can be applied to any individual who is over 18 years of age and does not have any general health problems. The only requirement is the adequacy of the bone ratio. For this purpose, the amount and density of bone in the jawbone to be treated is measured before the treatment. Because this treatment can only be successful when the implant fuses with the bone.
This operation, for which local anesthesia is sufficient, is also supported by sedation under the supervision of an anesthesiologist and in a hospital environment, depending on the patient's anxiety.
In bone transplant surgeries where treatments such as All on 4, All 6, All on 8 are applied and there is advanced bone loss, in some cases, implant surgeries are performed in a hospital environment and under the supervision of an Anesthesiologist.
The material applied as artificial root is mostly produced from titanium. This substance is preferred because it does not exhibit any incompatibility with human tissue. However, the fact that it is an imported and high-technology material increases the price.
After a short bonding and healing period, the treatment is terminated by placing the dental prosthesis on the implant. The treatment process is described as almost painless.
It is a frequently used method as it allows the patient to resume his life in a short time. Among the advantages of this treatment method are the fact that it does not cause any aesthetic problems and provides almost identical restoration of natural tooth functions. In this way, the patient can regain the self-confidence he lost and find the power to direct his position in social life.
Another aspect of the implant is that it provides a very long-lasting use due to the materials and techniques used. It takes one step forward from the themes. Since this period of use is directly related to the patient's daily habits and oral/dental hygiene routine, adequate care must be taken.
It is of great importance to work with a specialist and experienced physician for the treatment to be successful. The technological equipment adequacy and high hygiene standards of the address where the operation will be performed are also among the factors of success. For these reasons, the choice of address to be made after deciding on treatment is vital. The doctor's experience, how many implants he has made, clinical sterilization and the doctor's aesthetic vision are very important.
