Dental implants techniques in Turkey

Standard technique

Dental implants in Turkey Istanbul are placed by installing metal part, followed by the attachment of crowns after a few months. The time interval between the first stage and the second stage is determined by the doctor, taking into account factors such as the density and strength of the jawbone, the total number of teeth, and the patient’s age.

Sometimes, bone powder is used to strengthen the jawbone, fill empty spaces, or better secure the metal parts. Additionally, the sinuses may be raised and strengthened with this treatment. One of the advantages of this technique is its flexibility, allowing the patient to get implants as needed, whether for a single tooth or multiple teeth.

Immediate dental implants in Turkey

This technique involves installing metal implants and dental crowns simultaneously, which is applicable in certain cases determined by the dentist after a clinical examination and necessary X-rays. These cases are typically limited to a small number of implants and younger patients.

All On Four Technique in Turkey

All-on-four dental implants in Turkey are among the latest techniques in prosthodontics. This method is particularly suitable for individuals who have lost a large number of teeth or all of their teeth in the jaw. The procedure starts with the doctor performing x-rays and clinical examinations to assess whether the patient is suitable for this technique and to evaluate the quality and density of the jawbone.

The All-on-Four technique involves placing four metal parts in specific locations in each jaw. An impression of the jaw is then taken and sent to the laboratory to prepare a temporary prosthesis. This temporary jaw is used until the metal implants have securely settled. Once they are stable, after a period specified by the doctor, the patient returns to receive the final crowns. These crowns are a bridge that closely resembles natural teeth and are mounted on the previously placed metal implants.

One downside of this technique is that the jaw must be completely free of teeth, which may require the extraction of any remaining teeth.
