Dental Implant Treatment

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Procedures

Dental Implant Procedures and Treatment Process

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots made of titanium and placed into the jawbone to restore the function and appearance of teeth lost for any reason. At our clinic, implant procedures are planned in accordance with surgical protocols following a detailed assessment of the patient’s jawbone structure, overall health, and radiographic findings, including panoramic X-rays and CT scans. By allowing missing teeth to be replaced without altering the adjacent teeth, this method plays an important clinical role in preserving chewing function and the integrity of the jawbone.

Replacement of a Single Missing Tooth

This procedure involves placing a single implant into the jawbone in the area of the missing tooth without altering the adjacent healthy teeth.

Multiple Missing Teeth and Implant-Supported Bridges

When several adjacent teeth are missing, fixed porcelain or zirconia bridges are placed over implants positioned at appropriate intervals.

Treatment for Complete Tooth Loss

For patients with no remaining teeth, fixed or removable implant-supported prostheses are planned according to the available jawbone volume.

Bone Grafting Procedures

When there is insufficient bone volume in the area where the implant will be placed, surgical bone grafting procedures are performed to improve bone quality and provide adequate support.

Sinus Lift

When the sinus cavities in the back of the upper jaw extend downwards, a sinus lift is performed to create sufficient bone height for the safe placement of dental implants.

Implant-Supported Prosthesis Planning

Once the implant has successfully integrated with the jawbone, fixed crowns or hybrid prostheses suited to the patient’s bite anatomy are prepared in the dental laboratory.

Key Features

Why Choose Pure Dental for Implant Treatment?

Detailed Radiological Assessment

Before treatment, bone density and nerve canals are mapped with millimetric precision using three-dimensional jaw CT scans and digital X-rays.

Biocompatible Titanium Materials

Internationally certified titanium implants that are fully compatible with the human body and bone tissue and carry a minimal risk of allergic reactions are used.

Procedure Performed Under Local Anaesthesia

The implant placement procedure is performed under fully effective local anaesthesia in accordance with surgical sterilisation protocols.

Personalised Surgical Protocol

A customised surgical plan is created by evaluating the patient’s overall health, chronic conditions, and current medications, with medical consultation when necessary.

Monitoring of Osseointegration

The biological process through which the implant integrates with the jawbone—typically taking two to four months—is regularly monitored through clinical check-ups.

Sterile and Safe Clinical Environment

All treatment areas and surgical instruments used during the procedure undergo rigorous sterilisation processes to prevent the risk of cross-infection.
What You Need to Know

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implant Treatment

Is dental implant treatment painful?
As the procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, no pain or discomfort is felt during the operation. Any mild soreness that may occur afterwards can be managed with standard painkillers recommended by the dentist.
Can everyone undergo dental implant treatment?
Dental implant treatment can be performed on individuals whose jawbone development is complete—generally those over the age of 18—and whose overall health is suitable for surgery. For patients with chronic conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure, the condition must be well controlled before treatment.
Is it possible for the body to reject or lose a dental implant?
Titanium is biologically compatible with the human body and does not typically cause allergic reactions. However, failure to follow the dentist’s post-operative instructions or inadequate oral hygiene may lead to an infection around the implant, which can result in implant loss.
How long should patients wait after dental implant placement?
For the implant to fully integrate with the jawbone—a process known as osseointegration—a healing period of approximately three to four months is generally required for the upper jaw and two to three months for the lower jaw. This period may be longer if bone grafting has been performed. Temporary prostheses may be used during this time.
How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants can remain functional for many years when proper oral hygiene practices and cleaning protocols are followed. To maintain long-term treatment success, patients must perform their daily oral care thoroughly and attend routine dental check-ups twice a year.
