What is dental implant treatment?
Dental implant treatment involves placing artificial teeth into the jawbone to replace one or more missing teeth. They are made of titanium, which has been used for many years and is fully biocompatible and tissue-friendly. Titanium osseointegrates very well with the bone and offers excellent durability. Once the dental implant is placed, it fuses with the jawbone, making it a part of the body that can last a lifetime.
How is dental implant treatment performed, and what is the treatment process?
Dental implant treatment is performed under local anesthesia, similar to other procedures (fillings, root canals, tooth extractions). Depending on the patient’s preference, it can also be performed under sedation. There is no pain during the treatment. Nowadays, dental implant treatment is a very simple and painless procedure.
It takes up to 3 months for the placed implant to fuse with the bone. This duration may vary based on the patient’s age and health status. Patients with inadequate bone structure or those undergoing a sinus lift or bone grafting may need to wait up to 6 months after the implant placement. After this period, measurements are taken, and an implant-supported prosthesis is created. If dental implant care is performed correctly, it can last a lifetime.
The greatest advantage of dental implant treatment is that missing teeth are replaced without affecting the adjacent teeth. When a dental bridge is applied, the adjacent teeth must be prepared. Dental implant treatment does not damage adjacent teeth.
It restores the patient’s chewing function and aesthetics. You can use them just like your natural teeth and smile with confidence.
Dental implant treatment prevents bone loss.
Dental implant reconstruction
Dental implant reconstruction is the surgical procedure of inserting implants into the jawbone, which allows for the installation of a bridge or other dental restorations, enabling the patient to have the full and healthy dentition lost due to injury, decay, or other dental diseases.
Dental implants are tiny titanium screws placed in the jawbone to support an abutment that holds a prosthetic crown. Dental implants are an effective and long-lasting restoration for a missing tooth. The bone grows around the implant, making it solid enough to replace what was once the tooth root. Since implants are made of titanium, they integrate well with the bone, prevent bone tissue loss, and are resistant to decay.
Dental implants have been in use for over 20 years, and recent innovations have made the procedure much more comfortable than before. Dental implant reconstruction is now minimally invasive and can be completed in several dental visits.
