Implants are commonly used in cases of single tooth loss or multiple tooth losses. Dental implants prevent shifting in the mouth like traditional prosthetic teeth and restore chewing function. Additionally, implants can help maintain the health of the gums and jawbone.

Implant treatment generally consists of several stages. In the initial stage, the condition of the jawbone where the implant will be placed is examined, and if necessary, the jawbone is prepared. Then, the titanium screw of the implant is placed into the jawbone, and a period is allowed for it to heal within the bone. After the healing process, prosthetic teeth are placed on the implants, and the dental treatment is completed.

The cost of implant treatment can vary based on many factors. These include the brand of the implant, the location where the procedure is performed, the dentist's experience, and the complexity of the treatment. Generally, the cost of an implant treatment may be higher compared to other dental treatment options, but considering the long-term benefits, this cost can be deemed affordable.

• Similarity to Natural Teeth: Implants resemble natural teeth more than other dental treatments. This is an important advantage in terms of aesthetics.

• Jawbone Preservation: Implants prevent the loss of jawbone and maintain the existing bone structure since they are placed in the jawbone.

• No Damage to Other Teeth: While other dental treatments can often cause damage to neighboring teeth, implants do not harm adjacent teeth.

• Long-Lasting: With proper care, implants can last a lifetime.

• Comfort and Function: Implants offer a more comfortable and natural chewing function compared to other dental prostheses.

• Applicability by Specialist Dentists: When performed by specialist dentists, implant treatment has a high success rate and provides long-term results.

• Prevents Bone Loss: Implants prevent bone loss that occurs in the jawbone due to tooth loss and protect the jawbone.

• Reliability: Implants are a reliable dental treatment method that has been used successfully for many years.

Implant treatment usually consists of several stages and can take a few months in total. In the first stage, the implant is placed into the jawbone, and then a period of 3 to 6 months is allowed for the bone to fuse with the implant. Afterward, the prosthetic teeth are placed on the implant.

The placement of the implant is generally done under local anesthesia, so no pain is felt during the procedure. After the procedure, there may be slight pain and discomfort, but this can usually be managed with painkillers.

With good care and regular check-ups, implants can last a lifetime. Paying attention to oral hygiene and regular dentist visits ensure the longevity of implants.

Adults with sufficient bone thickness and density in the jaw and good general health are usually suitable candidates for implant treatment. However, each individual's condition is different, so they should be evaluated by a dentist.

Caring for implants is the same as caring for your natural teeth. Daily brushing, flossing, and regular dental check-ups keep implants healthy.

No, implants do not damage neighboring teeth. On the contrary, they help preserve the structure of the mouth by preventing other teeth from shifting.

Implants are usually made of titanium because titanium is well tolerated by the body and easily fuses with the bone. Other biocompatible materials such as zirconium can also be used.

Most people can return to their normal activities within a few days after the implant is placed. However, the recovery period varies from person to person, and it is important to follow your doctor's recommendations.

Yes, like any medical procedure, there are some risks in implant treatment. However, implants performed by a specialist dentist and supported with proper care have a very high success rate.
