Dental implants
A Dental Implant is an operation to implant artificial tooth roots made of titanium into the jaw bone tissue in place of teeth lost for any reason. The use of an implant is the best and most modern method in the treatment of missing teeth. Thanks to the new and technological materials of our days, the use of the implant has become simpler, painless and efficient.
When an implant is inserted into the jaw bone tissue, it is placed in accordance with the closure of the jaw, bone tissue and gum tissue. The prosthesis, which is installed on the implant, has the same aesthetic appearance and functionality as a real tooth.
Who Can Use The Implant?

Planning: The bone structure of the patient to whom the implant will be applied, the quantity, quality of the bone and the anatomical structure of the site are analyzed using a radiological image and an examination of the oral cavity. Treatment protocols are drawn up and the patient is informed.Surgical Application of The Implant:
Depending on the surgical operation to be performed on the patient and its duration, as well as taking into account the wishes of the patient, a decision is made on the use of local or general anesthesia.
To place the implant, all sterility conditions for performing a surgical operation are provided, then a place for the implant is prepared in a certain area of the jaw bone tissue, after which it is inserted into the bone tissue.

Implant placement is a painless procedure that takes 5-30 minutes and is usually performed under local anesthesia.
