What is a Dental Implant?
Dental implants have been used in dentistry for 35 years and its use of areas is expanding for the patient’s advantage with each passing day as the material technology progresses. The modern procedure for this was invented in the 1950s when P.I. Branemark, a Swedish orthopaedic surgeon, discovered that titanium can fuse with the bone. The procedure is categorized as a form of prosthetic (artificial replacement) dentistry, though it also falls into the category of cosmetic dentistry as well. Although you have a number of restorative options as dental bridges or dentures for the treatment of missing teeth, none have proven to be as functionally effective and durable as implants.
A Dental Implant is a small titanium screw which is placed into the jaw bone to act as an artificial tooth root. Dental Implants are made of titanium which is known to integrate with your natural bone. An attachment called an ‘abutment’ is connected to the top of the Implant above the jaw line and it is the abutment that the Implant Crown ‘artificial tooth’ is connected to. The crown is the porcelain component made to look like the white enamel of your natural teeth that juts out above the gum. The abutment is a tiny attachment that connects the implant with the crown. Since the implant fuses to the jawbone without creating any allergic reaction in the body, the end look and feel is completely natural. Dental Implants are the ideal solution for many situations when a single tooth, several teeth, or all teeth are missing. Even for large gaps in the teeth, you can have an implant bridge which is a fixed dental restoration that can be held in place by one or more dental implants. Dental Implants can also be used with dentures to increase stability and reduce gum tissue irritation.
Dentures and bridges supported by implants won’t slip in your mouth, which is an important benefit when eating and speaking. This secure fit helps the dentures and the bridges feel more natural than conventional bridges and dentures. Featuring the characteristic that are the closest to natural teeth, implants offer a much better chewing and speaking function compared to conventional prostheses and provide a more natural and aesthetic appearance.
A dental implant to support a dental crown can work very much like a real tooth. If you are looking for reliable and quality alternatives to dental bridges or dentures in order to replace your missing teeth or teeth need to be extracted, dental implants may be the perfect solution for you. You can replace a single tooth or multiple teeth with dental implants in Turkey. Dental implants provide patients with a more comfortable, aesthetic and functional treatment than other alternative methods. They give you the opportunity to restore functions and appearance of the tooth. They also function the same as natural teeth and help preserve the jaw structure by preventing atrophy from bone loss.

Why Would You Need Dental Implants?
Losing one or more of your teeth creates a gap in your smile, affects your ability to chew properly, and can alter your diet and nutrition. While these are all serious issues, it is also important fact that tooth loss also leads to bone loss.
Here is a list of common reasons why dentists prescribe implants:
- To treat one or multiple missing teeth
- As a better alternative to dentures or bridges
- As a treatment when dentures or bridges are not effective
- As a treatment when dentures or bridges are not possible because of lack of teeth roots
- Treatment options for single tooth missing are implant or bridge treatment. If the implant is applied, treatment can be provided without any treatment to the teeth next to the gap.
Treatment options for multiple tooth missing include implants, bridges, or mobile dentures. If implant treatment is preferred, the number of implants to be used may vary depending on the size of the gap to be closed. For example, if you have a gap where 3 or 4 teeth are missing along the same row, 2 Dental Implants (one at each end of the gap) will be placed. These Implants will support a 3 or 4 Tooth Dental Implant Bridge. The use of the implant eliminates multiple tooth defects without the need to perform any procedure on the adjacent intact teeth.

- Is It Possible to Implement Implant To Every Patient?
Generally speaking, if you are in good health, you can undergo dental implant surgery. It is in very rare cases like oral cancer or severe diabetes that some patients are discouraged from getting implants. You should also not have any health conditions that prevent bone healing, as the implant must fuse with the bone. Also, the other reservations might be for younger patients that haven’t completed their bone development yet and mentally disable individuals (who may not be able to maintain their oral care). Our clinicians would first run an assessment to make sure the implant surgery is suitable to your existing medical condition.
Risk of Dental Implants
Medical procedures are not completely risk-free. Dental implants are no exception. Keep in mind that getting dental implants requires surgery. Naturally, therefore, there would be some risks associated. However, risks from implant surgery are rare.
Here are the biggest risks of dental implant surgery:
- Implant site getting infected
- Inserting the implant may damage surrounding teeth, blood vessels, or other structures
- The implant placement could result in nerve damage, a persisting condition that will cause a painful, tingling sensation in your mouth, lips, or chin
- Implant placements in the upper jaw could bear down on a sinus cavity, causing sinus issues
Most of the above risks are minor and can be treated if they occur. The most serious risk factor is nerve damage, which is more difficult to treat. Certain lifestyle habits, such as smoking, can put you at elevated risk for unintended effects of dental implant surgery. You should discuss the risks with your dentist. Your dentist will be able to explain how vulnerable you are to particular risks of implant surgery.
There are two types of common implant used today and the dentist will advise which is the most suitable at the consultation:
- Endosteal (in the bone). The most commonly used type of implant and each one holds one or more prosthetic teeth, it is generally used for patients with bridges or removable dentures.
- Supperiosteal (on the bone) placed on the jaw, the metal framework posts protrude through the gum to hold the prothesis. These types of implants are suitable for those who are unable to wear dentures and who have minimal bone height.
Do Dental Implant Procedure Hurts?
Placing the implants requires a small operation. Thanks to modern technology, Dental Treatment in Turkey is no longer painful. The technology at the dental clinic is also very important. It is very easy to make the entire mouth numb using a local anesthetic injection. The needle is very thin and short. It is considered a pain free injections which are also used for child patients. Sometimes your dentist might give you a sedative if you are very nervous or if the case is a complicated one. General anaesthetics are rarely used for implants and are generally only used for very complicated cases. Following your procedure your mouth may be sore for a few days but heals very quickly.
Are Dental Implants in Turkey Rejected By The Body?
Implants are usually made of biocompatible material called titanium. Since titanium is not an organic substance, it does not create antigen – antibody reactions. Therefore a “tissue rejection” is not in question.
STAGES OF DENTAL IMPLANTS IN TURKEY TREATMENT
There are several steps involved in getting dental implant surgery. It starts with an assessment from a dentist prescribing a dental implant. Then, the planning stage begins. A patient needs 2 visits for full procedure, the first step will be dental Implants surgery and the second step will be for dental crowns. Second visit is after 4 months from the first visit.
The Planning Stage, Who Will Do Your Operation and How?
A thorough assessment will be made in advance including X-rays and possibly CT scans. Your jaw area, bones and gums are examined and evaluated by a maxillofacial surgeon (also sometimes an oral surgeon) if you are able to receive a dental implant. In some cases, the surgeon will determine if you require sinus lifting or bone grafting to support the implant. You will be referred to a prosthodontist, a dental specialist that designs artificial teeth and fixes them to the mouth. An oral or maxillofacial surgeon would perform the implant surgery. The prosthodontist will complete the procedure to give you artificial teeth. In some cases, your dentist may refer you to an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) consultant to examine the interior of your mouth and make sure no underlying conditions would affect the implant procedure. You may have to see an ENT in case you are at risk for an infection, or if your sinuses are dislocated.
The Preparation Stage
You will be prepped for implants first with a comprehensive dental evaluation. Your dentist or oral surgeon would take dental x-rays and 3D images of the interior of the mouth. These images are necessary to design an artificial tooth. Your dentists and specialists would discuss your medical history with you. You must disclose your complete medical history to the doctors involved in the plant procedure. They should be informed of any medication you are on. Also, notify your dentist if you have a history of heart disease or any orthopaedic implants. Your dental specialists will draft a step-by-step treatment plan for you. The plan will vary if you need more than one implant.
You will be prescribed medications after the surgery or before, in some cases. You would need to take antibiotics to minimize the risk of infection. Your doctors will discuss anaesthesia options as well. Local anaesthesia is recommended, though some patients may require sedation.
The Surgery
Before surgery, or during, your dentist or specialist would start the procedure by removing damaged teeth, if necessary. Surgery will be performed at an outpatient clinic by a specialist jaw surgeon. You will be given a numbing agent (anaesthesia) to prevent any pain. The surgery involves the dental specialist cutting through the gum to expose the jawbone. Then the surgeon would drill into your jawbone to place the implant. The operation can take anything from 20 minutes for a single implant to some hours if the procedure involves sinus lifting, bone grafting and multiple implant placements.
The Healing Process
Once the implant is placed, you will have to wait for the bone to heal around the implant. This procedure is medically known as osseointegration, where the bone fuses with the implant. It would take several months for the fusing to complete. Soon after the surgery is complete, you may experience small pain in the implant area. It’s not abnormal to experience swelling or bruising of gums. There might be some bleeding from the implant too. You will be on antibiotics following the surgery to prevent infection and aid in healing. During this period the patient has to maintain perfect oral hygiene. Until the implant is healed, your dentist may provide temporary dentures or a bridge to cover the tooth gap. It will be only until the artificial tooth is placed.
If you have full dentures, you can keep wearing these while your implants are healing. Your dentures will need altering, to fit properly after the surgery.
Getting Your Artificial Tooth After Dental Implants in Turkey
When you are fully healed from the implant surgery, and the implant is completely fused to the bone, you need to revisit the oral surgeon. There would be another minor surgery to place the abutment. The abutment is what connects the dental crown to the implant. The oral surgeon would have to reopen your gum to access the dental implant. Then, the abutment will be attached.
The abutment can be placed without this surgical step. But, that would cause it to jut out of the jawline, which is not aesthetically appealing. After the abutment attachment procedure, you will have to wait for about ten days for your gums to heal. Then, go back to the clinic to get your dental crown. It will be designed to look exactly like your natural tooth.
Check-up
The long-term success of the dental implant and the artificial tooth built on are in advance guaranteed, however a careful oral hygiene in any case should be applied in order to maintain the general mouth and dental health. After the prosthetic procedure, patients have a check-up examination at least every year to check oral hygiene and the function and stability of the tooth implant.
Are the implant teeth difficult to clean?
No. But aftercare is important if you are going to have a long-lasting, successful implant. Your dentist should give you detailed advice on how to look after your implants. Cleaning around the teeth attached to the implants is no more difficult than cleaning natural teeth. However, there may be areas that are difficult to reach and you’ll be shown methods to help you.
Implant Care
Patients who have undergone successful implant therapy should receive individualized, systematic and continuous supportive care of the peri-implant tissues. Like your natural teeth, implants should be treated with care and good oral hygiene. You should brush, floss and maintain regular dental cleanings and checkups, as scheduled by you and your dentist.
Although there is no caries in the implants and prosthetic structures, infection may develop in the gums around the implant and if this infection does not treated it spreads to the bone around the implant and leads to loss of the implant. This infectious condition that occurs around the implant is called as peri-implantitis. Depending on the stages of perimplantitis, various treatments may be necessary, but removal of the implant may be necessary in advanced cases. It is very important that you take care of your implant in order not to encounter such adverse conditions and come to the controls at the intervals recommended by your doctor.
Smoking also affects the health of natural teeth and implants. So, if you smoke, you may need to look after your implants more carefully. Smoking also increases the infection risk especially during the first phases.
Do the implants show?
Most implants look exactly like natural teeth. The dental implants don’t show, even when they replace your front teeth.
I have no teeth, how many Implants do I need?
It is not possible to place 1 Dental Implant for every missing tooth. The bone will simply not hold this number of Implants. Usually a patient that is missing all their teeth will have 6-8 Implants in the upper jaw and 6 Implants in the lower jaw. 14 Crowns on each jaw will then be connected to your Dental Implants in bridges. We can provide all the relevant information you need and a full breakdown of costs.
What If I need Bone Grafting or Sinus Lifting?
Once a natural tooth is extracted, the jawbone density will start to reduce after a period of time. In some cases, the reason for the loss of the tooth initially can be due to a reduction in bone density. In such cases, in order for an effective Implant placement bone grafting is required. Along the upper jaw the position of the sinus pockets is of vital importance to ensure a safe Implant placement. If there is insufficient room under the sinus pocket a sinus lifting procedure may be advised. In 30% of cases, bone grafting and/or sinus lifting are carried out alongside the Implant placement.
About Canser Risk Allege Of Implementation
The main ingredient of the implant is titanium. Titanium is an extremely excellent material friendly to jawbone and soft tissues. Titanium-rich and quality implant, there is no possibility of such a problem and allege is causeless. No research has confirmed this allege.
If I had gum disease when I had my own teeth, will I get it with the implants?
Yes, if you don’t care for them well enough. If you keep them clean and have them regularly checked by your dentist you should not have any problems.
What is the form of prostheses on implants?
Prostheses on implant vary from case to case. These can be mobile that can be removed by the patient or fixed that can be removed only by the dentist. Both forms have their own advantages and disadvantages. You can plan the most suitable design together with your dentist.
How long will implants last?
Implants are a safe, well-established, tried-and-tested treatment. It’s probably true to say that implants, much like natural teeth, will last for as long as you care for them. How well you look after your implants – and whether you go for your regular maintenance appointments – will have the biggest impact on how long they will last. If you don’t look after your implants they will develop a coating similar to that found on neglected natural teeth. Left untreated, this can lead to gum infection, bleeding, soreness and general discomfort. You could get all these problems with natural teeth. If your implants are well looked after, and if the bone they are fitted to is strong and healthy, you can expect them to last for life-time.
Is Dental Implant in Turkey Treatment Expensive?
Although it looks like a disadvantage being more expensive compared to other alternatives, it will prove to be worth its cost after a careful consideration of advantages. For instance, the price to be paid in case of conventional bridge prosthesis might be less compared to implant, however it can be seen that the success rate of implant in the long run is much higher compared to other treatments plus the fact that the teeth in the front or behind the lost tooth are not reduced. Moreover, you can regard implant as a prospective investment either since implant is a lifelong solution. You can deem the implant to be placed today as one of those implants to be needed if you lose other teeth in future too.
On the other hand, don’t opt for cheaper implant brands by foregoing the established, expensive brands. The high-end brands may be costly, but they offer excellent quality products. The dental implants will remain in your mouth permanently, so don’t be frugal when it comes to choosing implant brands.
