What is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a titanium screw-like structure placed in the jawbone to replace one or more missing teeth.
A porcelain veneer is placed on this structure to achieve a natural tooth-like appearance.What are the Advantages of Dental Implants?
- They are longer lasting than other prosthetic solutions.
- They can replace a single tooth without damaging other teeth.
- They provide support to other teeth and prevent bone resorption in the jaw.
How is Dental Implant Treatment Applied?
Dental implant treatment can be performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia. First, implant screws are placed on the jawbone, and the healing process is awaited.
Then porcelain veneers are fixed to the implants and the treatment is complete.Post-Dental Implant Care
Daily oral hygiene is very important after dental implant treatment. Brushing your teeth regularly and using dental floss ensures the longevity of the implants. Regular dental check-ups are also important for the maintenance of the implants.
