Implant Treatment

Implant is the most preferred method of dentistry treatment today in order to eliminate the aesthetic and functional problems experienced by people who have lost their teeth for different reasons.

Implant, also known as Screwed Teeth among the people, is the treatment technique in which the closest appearance and functionality to the natural tooth of the person is obtained. During the Implant Treatment process, an artificial tooth root suitable for the jawbone is placed in the mouth area of the person where tooth loss is experienced.

The reason why people prefer Implant applications more than other treatment methods is that it offers much more robust, useful, durable and long-lasting results. After the implant, the mouth and tooth structure of the person has a natural appearance, and he can perform the tasks that he needs to fulfill in daily life without any problems.

Today, with the increasing demand for Implant Treatment of patients experiencing tooth loss, many Implant Brands and Implant Types have been produced. However, the most frequently applied implant model can be shown as Screw Implant.

Implants, which are specially produced for the area where the patient has tooth loss during Implant Treatment, are placed in the form of fixed or removable prostheses in patients with sufficient jawbone. If the patient's jawbone is not sufficient, techniques that will ensure bone formation in the treatment area are used before the application.

What is an Implant

Artificial tooth roots, which are used in the treatment of missing teeth and provide support to the tooth through prostheses, are called Implant application. Implant treatment ensures that the teeth look natural and maintain their functional properties.

Implant, which is an ideal treatment method for tooth deficiencies, does not damage other teeth and thus stands out as a safe application.

There are some conditions for patients to have dental implants. Among these conditions;

• Missing at least 1 or more teeth,
• Having a healthy mouth tissue
• Having sufficient amount of jawbone,
• Not having systemic diseases,
• Not to smoke and alcohol,

can be displayed.

Implant applications can replace only one tooth or can be used in all teeth. After this treatment, the Implant integrates into the bone and with the integration process, the Implants work like natural teeth. These implants, which completely heal in the bone, reveal natural and permanent results.

What is Implant Teeth

Dental problems progress as a result of not giving necessary care to the teeth and not paying attention to dental treatments on time. In this way, as a result of neglected situations, tooth loss occurs. One of the most effective methods used in the treatment of missing teeth is implant applications.

Implant Dental Treatment is the addition of new teeth using appropriate treatment methods instead of broken or decayed teeth for various reasons. An implant tooth is known as an artificial tooth root and is made by placing it in or on the jaw to complete the missing tooth.

Tooth loss is a very important issue in terms of both health and aesthetics. Therefore, performing these treatments without interruption also increases the success rate of Implant Dental treatment. It is possible to prevent tooth loss and achieve healthy teeth with implant treatment.

Types of Implants

Implant applications are the mouth, tooth and jaw treatment method, which is seen as the first choice by most of the patients who have lost their teeth today. With the innovations brought by modern technology to the field of health, many Implant Brands have emerged and developed to ensure 100% compliance with the patient's oral structure.

Among the most commonly used Implant Types today;

• Endodontic Stabilizer: It is a dental treatment applied to people with weak tooth structure. With these methods, a strong dental infrastructure is created, but surgical procedures are not applied during these procedures.
• Endosseous Implant: It is one of the types of dental treatment applications made in the absence of at least one tooth. In this treatment method, there is an intervention in the jawbone. These implant methods are known as intraosseous implants and are among the most used applications today.
• Transosseous Implant: Transosseous Implant procedures are applied to the lower jaw. These methods are used for a better placement, especially in cases where the bone length is not sufficient for implant placement.
• Intramucosal Insert: The aim of this type of dental treatment, which is completely covered with titanium material, is to enable patients with prosthetic teeth to use these prostheses more comfortably.
• Subperiosteal Implant: It is a treatment technique in which an implant is inserted by applying a surgical procedure on the patient's dental bone. The most important advantage of these implant procedures is that it adjusts the severity of chewing in the best way. This application is not preferred much nowadays.

In Which Situations the Implant Is Applied

Implant is a dental treatment method used to eliminate the aesthetic and functional problems experienced by patients who have lost one or more teeth for different reasons. Implant application is a technique that can be used by every individual with tooth loss, regardless of male or female.

Among the cases where Implant Treatment is found to be correct;

• Implant in Single Tooth Loss: A dental implant is placed in the area with a single missing tooth and a crown is made on this implant. Thus, the tissue of other surrounding teeth is not damaged and a high level of protection is provided.
• Implant in Multiple Tooth Loss: Bridge or prosthesis procedures are performed in cases of multiple tooth loss. With these procedures, the missing areas are filled and the implant is placed in the missing tooth area. Other natural teeth are preserved with a fixed bridge and prosthesis application.
• Implant in case of edentulism: In cases of complete edentulism, prosthesis application is generally used. However, prosthetic procedures can be inconvenient for patients. Prostheses create a feeling of excess in the mouth and in this case, it causes trouble in speaking. In this application, implants are placed in the jawbone and in addition to total prosthesis use, fixed prosthesis use is provided. Fixed prosthesis does not create a feeling of excess in the mouth and the patient gets a high efficiency from this procedure.

How Implant Treatment Is Done

It is a Dentistry Treatment method that is performed by a Specialist Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial Surgeon in the implant clinical environment and requires competence in this field. Implant treatment is applied in 2 stages, namely Examination Stage and Surgical Stage.

• Examination Phase: Before a surgical intervention, dentists analyze the patient's condition in detail. Before starting the treatment, the dentist talks to the patient and requests x-rays and tomography of the patient's oral structure. After examining these, a detailed treatment method is determined.
• Surgical Stage: The surgical intervention steps are as follows;
• First, the patient is given general anesthesia.
• In the next procedure, titanium screws are placed in the patient's jawbone.
• Placement of each Implant takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes. These placed Implants must be fused to the bone structure.
• It takes between 3 and 6 months for the implants to become compatible with the bone structure.
• After the implant is made and the waiting period is over, the treatment process is terminated by applying a permanent prosthesis.
• In order for all these stages to progress in the best way, it is very important for the patient to have a healthy jaw - bone structure and gums.
• How to Insert an Implant
• Implant selection and insertion is the process that requires expertise and great attention during Implant Treatment. The insertion process of the implant is included in the surgical phase. Stages of implant insertion;
• After the decision to make the implant is made, the process is started. This surgical stage covers the process of placing the implant in the jawbone.
• At the surgical stage, the relevant area is first anesthetized and the implant is placed inside the jawbone.
• At this stage, the process is done as follows. First, the gingiva on the bone is lifted and a socket is opened into the bone. Implant is placed in this socket and the gingiva is sutured again.
• The total time for each Implant procedure is between 5 and 10 minutes.
• After the surgical procedures are completed, it is expected that the implant processes will fuse to the jawbone. Although it varies from person to person, this period lasts between 3 and 6 months on average.
• The one-to-one compatibility of the implants with the jawbone is the most important element of the implant dental treatment process.
• In some techniques, there is no need to wait for such a long time and the process is completed in a single session.
• Paying attention to oral hygiene after implant dental treatment is a matter directly related to the success of implant procedures.

When is the tooth inserted after the implant screw is inserted?

The process of placing the tooth after the implant placement process varies from patient to patient. If the implant adapts to the jawbone as desired, the tooth insertion process takes place immediately. At the same time, the strong bone structure of the patient allows the teeth to be inserted in a short time.

After the implant screw is inserted, there is a certain amount of time to understand whether the implant has fused. Dentists check with their special instruments in sterile environments whether the implant is completely fused or not.

If there is no movement in the implant and adhesion has taken place, it means that the implant union has been successful. After this process, the dental set process is started.

How long does the implant treatment

Thanks to the advancing technology, there are permanent solutions to different diseases. One of them is implant treatment. These applications, which are a treatment method used in case of partial or complete loss of teeth in the mouth, are also used in solving problems in the gums as well as tooth loss.

Considering the duration of Implant Treatment, a two-stage process is seen. The first phase of the treatment lasts an average of 15 minutes. Each Implant takes approximately 3 to 4 minutes to be placed. In these processes, first;

The implant is placed in the jawbone and then it is expected that the implant will transform into a structure compatible with the jaw for a period of 3 to 6 months.
After this stage, the prosthetic dental set is started and the treatment is completely terminated.
In patients who do not meet the conditions of implant treatment, this period may be longer than 2 to 3 months. Those who do not meet these conditions first have their diseases treated and then start the implant procedures.

How Long Is the Implant Life?

The life of the implant treatment is related to how correct and regular the patient's oral care is. Meticulous care is needed for this treatment method to be more effective on the patient. If patients do their oral care regularly after treatment and listen to the doctor's recommendations, the life of the Implant Treatment can be longer.

The life of implant treatment is approximately 25 to 30 years. However, many things can be done to prolong the permanence of this treatment. Among these situations;

• Oral and dental health should be taken care of and necessary care should be taken.
• In order to prevent a possible dental problem, the dentist should be checked regularly.
• Regular maintenance of implants should not be neglected.
• Bacteria that occur in the mouth are very harmful to oral health. As a result, severe pain in the mouth may occur. Therefore, each point of the mouth should be cleaned to prevent this.
• Teeth should be brushed regularly and floss should be used where the toothbrush cannot enter.
• Oral hygiene should be ensured by mouthwash.

Is the Implant Painful?

Since implant procedures are performed under general anesthesia, no pain is felt in this treatment method. After the implant, jawbone and gingival openings occur and this may cause mild pain.

Pain after implant treatment is quite normal and less felt. In order to relieve these minor pains, care should be taken to use the drugs prescribed by the doctor.

Since implant procedures are processes that require surgical intervention, pain may occur, albeit mildly. However, these pains do not last very long.

The cause of long-term pain is generally due to mistakes made in the procedures. Implant pain will pass in a short time if the dentist's advice is followed.

Is Implant Difficult?

Although implant treatment varies from person to person, it can be difficult or easy. The implant process is initially a difficult process. The most important reason for this is that it includes a comprehensive treatment process. Contrary to popular belief, implant applications are not a difficult process due to the developing technology.

Implant procedures are performed using general or local anesthesia applications. With the numbing of the area, pain and pain are not experienced.

At the same time, Implant Treatment processes performed in a reliable and clean examination environment are very easy. Since these procedures are performed by experienced dentists, this application stands out as a more comfortable and easy process.

In which cases the implant is not made

Implant applications used in the treatment of tooth deficiency provide an aesthetic and healthy tooth appearance in patients. Implant Treatment is the procedures applied to the lower and upper jaws, missing teeth and those who have lost their molars.

In case of loss of a single tooth or loss of all teeth, this treatment process is applied and the person is provided with healthy teeth. There are some cases where the implant, which is a successful treatment process, cannot be performed. Among these situations;

• In order to benefit from implant treatment, it is necessary to complete the age of 18. The age of 18 is the period when bone formation is completed.
• Implant treatment is not recommended for people who smoke excessively. The most important reason for this is that bacteria in cigarettes accelerate the formation of plaque on the teeth. It also increases the risk of infection in the teeth. In addition, the recovery time after the treatment process of smokers is longer.
• It is very risky for diabetics to have implant treatment. Healing of tissues is delayed in diabetic patients. Therefore, the risk of infection is also very high.
• Implant treatment is not applied to people with heart problems.
• It is very risky for people with high blood pressure to benefit from this treatment. The main reason for this is that stress levels can increase in a short time.
• Those who have blood clotting problems cannot have Implant treatment.

Implant Top Prosthesis

The problem of total edentulism is solved by using Implant Prosthesis procedures. Implant supported prostheses are divided into two. These are fixed and semi-removable prostheses.

Fixed Prostheses: These prostheses are a type of prosthesis that cannot be removed by the patient. It includes the replacement of missing teeth using materials similar to dental tissue. In the fixed prosthesis application, procedures are carried out using adhesive and screwed methods. Having two durable and long-rooted teeth is sufficient to perform the fixed prosthesis application.
Semi-Removable Prosthesis: This type of prosthesis is used in partial edentulism problems. It is possible to achieve an aesthetic and natural tooth structure with this Implant treatment method, which is made to replace missing teeth. The shapes of semi-removable prosthesis applications are more gentle than conventional prostheses. Thanks to these prosthetic procedures, the sense of taste is not adversely affected and the heat of the food is felt. In addition, this type of prosthesis is more comfortable than other prostheses. Having so many features has paved the way for the frequent use of these implant-supported prostheses in treatment methods.
Post Implant

After implant treatment, a certain amount of time is needed for the tissues to heal. If enough attention is paid to oral care in the time period after the treatment is finished, many complications that may develop are prevented early.

Things to do in the post-implant healing process are as follows;

• Teeth should not be brushed or gargled for 24 hours after the procedure.
• Sensitivity after the application passes after a maximum of 48 hours.
• After the treatment, the teeth can be brushed by applying light movements.
• Situations that may put pressure on the jawbone should be avoided.
• For oral care, the doctor's recommendations should be followed.

Post-Implant Nutrition;

Food and drink should not be consumed in the first 2 hours after the procedure.
It is necessary to stay away from food groups that will cause extreme sensitivity for 24 hours.
After an average of 48 hours of sensitivity, it is possible to switch to a normal diet. However, the consumption of hard foods that can cause pressure in the mouth should be avoided.
The consumption of foods that are at room temperature should be given priority.
Smoking and Alcohol Use After Implant;

It is necessary to stay away from smoking and alcohol use for a certain period of time, which greatly affects the healing process. This period is determined according to the recommendations of the doctor.
Implant Advantages
Implant Treatment offers a long-lasting healing opportunity with a safe and comfortable treatment process to people who have lost or lost their teeth. Among the advantages of implant treatment are;

• An Aesthetic Appearance: The implant process makes it possible to obtain a natural tooth appearance. These applications, which create a natural tooth feeling, fuse with the bone and provide permanence for many years. After the treatment, the desired natural, aesthetic and healthy teeth are achieved.
• Healthy Tooth Root: In implant treatment, the teeth are firmly attached to the jaw. When this tooth root is lost, a gap remains in the root and the root is rebuilt into this space. As a result of these procedures, a healthy tooth root is obtained.
• Durability: Implants are used for many years when oral health is taken care of.
• Fluent Speech: Prostheses that are not made correctly prevent fluent speech. However, Implants used without the worry that the teeth may slip provide a comfortable speech.
• Ease of Chewing: Since these Implants function as natural teeth, they allow you to enjoy the food without much effort. The bite force with implants is quite good.
• Oral Health: Implants make it a habit to constantly perform oral hygiene. As a result of these procedures, oral health is protected for many years.
