Implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium, which are placed in place of lost or congenitally missing teeth, without any harmful side effects on the body. With fixed or semi-fixed prostheses placed on these artificial tooth roots; it is aimed to increase patient comfort and meet expectations. Implant applications, which are easily performed under local anesthesia, are a robust, comfortable and reliable application. The implants are intended to function smoothly in the mouth for a lifetime. Since they have special surfaces, the implants are mechanically and cellularly attached to the bone on the way to integration into the bone. It is ideal to wait between 3-6 months for the bond to form. With the new implant surfaces produced in recent years, this period has been shortened. They are much safer, more comfortable and functional than traditional crowns, bridges and palatal prostheses.
Prostheses made on implants or implants give the closest appearance to the most natural structure while replacing real teeth. In the process of completing the missing teeth, healthy teeth are not touched. The implant, which is long-lasting compared to other fixed or mobile prostheses, brings the healthiest solution to the problems caused by tooth loss as a special application that replaces the natural tooth.
