IMPLANT
Implant treatment in bone deficiencies
Bone grafting in Turkey, the areas where the implants will be applied must be examined and a detailed clinical examination performed. If a problem relating to oral-dental health or gum health is determined during the clinical examination, there are steps that must be taken before performing an implant treatment. An X-ray examination is required to evaluate the height, thickness and quality of the bone. Patients with low or borderline bone density also need to undergo a dental tomography to eliminate errors and then treatment is planned based on the results.
Is a panoramic X-ray sufficient?
Panoramic X-rays provide two-dimensional information. They do not provide clear measurement results for patients with low or borderline bone density. This is why planning an implant treatment requires a three-dimensional dental tomography. A tomography provides detailed images of the bone and soft tissues, which are not visible on normal X-rays.
