DENTAL IMPLANT

Dental implant surgery is a procedure that replaces tooth roots with metal, screwlike posts and replaces damaged or missing teeth with artificial teeth that look and function much like real ones. Artificial tooth roots made of titanium, are put in place of the extracted teeth. Because the titanium in the implants fuses with your jawbone, the implants won’t slip, make noise or cause bone damage the way fixed bridgework or dentures might. Titanium is biologically compatible with body bone. The main cause of bone resorption is tooth deficiency. Dental implants done on time will prevent bone deterioration.

Procedure: First, implants are placed in the jawbone with a simple surgical procedure. Approximately 3 months after this, an impression is taken and crown teeth are attached. Implant application is performed with local anesthesia and is often much simpler and painless than a tooth extraction. In cases where there is bone deficiency it is likely fort he procedure to be more difficult. It is not a surprise if this possibility exists. The examination and advanced x-ray and tomography techniques are determined by the physician in advance and the patient is informed.
