Implant Treatment

Dental implants are artificial tooth replacements used to counter tooth loss. Dental implant the procedure is categorized as a form of prosthetic (artificial replacement) dentistry, though it also falls into the category of cosmetic dentistry as well. Selection Medist has been offering high-quality dental implants in Turkey for the past 20 years.

Preparation & Implant Placement

The implant acts as a replacement for the root of a natural tooth and can be used to support a single crown, a dental bridge, or a denture.

Abutment placement

After the implant has had time to heal and integrate with the bone, a small metal post called an abutment is placed onto the top of the implant. This serves as a connection point for the replacement tooth.

Tooth placement

The final step in the dental implant process is to place the replacement tooth onto the abutment. This can be a single crown, a dental bridge, or a denture, depending on the patient’s needs. The replacement tooth is typically made to match the patient’s natural teeth as closely as possible in terms of color, shape, and size.

Preparation

The first step in the dental implant process is to prepare the site where the implant will be placed. This may involve extracting any damaged or decayed teeth, and performing any necessary bone or gum tissue procedures to ensure that the site is ready for the implant.

Implant placement

The next step is to place the titanium implant into the jawbone. This is typically done using a local anesthetic to numb the area. The implant is placed into a hole that has been drilled into the jawbone, and then it is left to heal and integrate with the bone over a period of several months.
