Implant Applications
Implant applications are a modern treatment method aimed at restoring oral functions and aesthetic appearance with artificial teeth placed on titanium screws inserted into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. Dental implants mimic natural tooth roots, optimizing chewing, speaking, and smile aesthetics. Implant treatment provides suitable solutions for both single missing teeth and fully edentulous mouths, offering a long-lasting and reliable alternative. The procedure is planned after evaluating jawbone health and the individual’s overall condition.
When Might It Be Necessary?
- Single tooth loss
- Multiple missing teeth
- As an alternative to removable dentures in fully edentulous mouths
- The need to improve chewing function
- Requirement for a more aesthetic and fixed dental structure
Advantages of Treatment
- Appearance and feel closest to natural teeth
- A durable and long-lasting solution
- Prevention of jawbone loss due to tooth loss
- A comfortable and fixed dental structure
- High satisfaction in terms of aesthetics and functionality
