Afşin Implant Applications: Reliable and Permanent Solutions Against Tooth Loss
What is Implant Treatment? The Power of Titanium
In its simplest definition, a dental implant is a titanium screw that is 100% compatible with the human body and placed in the jawbone to restore the function and aesthetics of missing teeth. These titanium screws attach to the jawbone (osseointegration) just like the root of a real tooth and create an unshakeable foundation for porcelain or zirconium crowns that will be placed on them.
When you lose a tooth, you lose not only the visible part but also the root inside the bone. Implants are the only treatment method that mimics this root structure. This helps stop jawbone resorption and prevents your facial features from sagging.
Traditional Denture and Bridge or Implant?
To help you make the right decision in missing tooth treatment, we have prepared a comparison table where you can clearly see the differences between old methods and modern implant surgery:
| Features | Bridge / Removable Denture (Palate) | Dentocore Implant Treatment |
|---|---|---|
| To Surrounding Teeth Effect | Adjacent healthy teeth need to be cut. | Healthy teeth should absolutely not be touched. |
| Jawbone Health | Since there is no root, the jawbone will resorb over time. | It stimulates the bone and completely stops resorption. |
| Chewing Force | It is approximately 30-40% of a natural tooth. | Provides the exact same chewing force as a natural tooth. |
| Lifespan | Average 5-10 years (Replacement required) (may be necessary). | With proper care, it is permanent for a lifetime. |
| Comfort and Aesthetics | It may cause irritation, it may move while speaking. | It is indistinguishable from your real tooth, it never moves. |
How Does the Implant Treatment Process Work at Dentocore?
From the moment you step into our clinic in Afşin, the process is professionally managed with your comfort and safety at the center:
- Detailed Radiological Analysis: First, the thickness, density, and nerve location of your jawbone are measured in millimeters with 3D dental tomographies.
- Painless Surgical Stage: Under advanced local anesthesia, a titanium implant is placed in the jawbone. The procedure usually takes no more than 15 minutes for a single tooth. Afterwards, you can easily resume your daily life.
- Healing (Fusioning) Process: A waiting period is required for the implant to integrate with the bone (on average 2 months in the lower jaw, 3 months in the upper jaw). Temporary prostheses may be applied during this process to prevent you from being toothless.
- Superstructure (Crown) Placement: Your aesthetic zirconium or porcelain tooth, prepared by taking measurements, is placed on the implant that has firmly fused with the bone. Your new smile is ready!
