Implant treatment is perhaps one of the first treatments when it comes to dental treatments. Implant treatments, which are getting more preferred every day, are reliable and comfortable treatments.
The purpose of implant treatment is to eliminate the tooth deficiency in the person. This tooth deficiency may occur due to various diseases, improper and inadequate oral care or trauma. With implant treatment, the missing tooth or teeth are completed and it is aimed to achieve a complete tooth alignment.
Implant treatments are important not only for an aesthetic appearance but also for the health of the person. Missing teeth can cause many health problems in the person. Perhaps the most important of these is bone problems. Deformations may occur in the jaw structure and bone tissue of the person due to missing teeth. Therefore, implant treatments are the applications that offer health and aesthetics together which should not be postponed.
Implant treatment is performed by placing dental prostheses on special titanium screws. Other teeth are not damaged during this treatment at all. Dental implant treatment, which is a reliable application, is suitable for every individual over the age of 18. The age limit of 18 is important in implant treatments because the jawbone supports the implants inserted in place of missing teeth. Since the jaw structure development of the person is completed before the age of 18, implant treatment should not be performed before this age limit.
Different protocols can be applied in implant treatments depending on the needs of the patient. For example, if the jaw structure of the person is suitable for dental implants, treatment is started directly, but if there is not enough bone tissue in the area to be implanted, pre-treatments are applied for bone formation in that area. Therefore, recovery times and procedures in implant treatments may vary from patient to patient.
How is the implant treatment process?
First of all, after a detailed dental examination, the suitability of the person for implant treatment is determined with x-rays. If the person uses blood thinners due to other diseases, these drugs should be discontinued within the knowledge of the doctors. Likewise, if the person has a disease such as diabetes, it is important to start treatment because the recovery of diabetics is slower.
The materials used in implant treatments made by fixing special titanium screws to the jaw structure and placing dental prostheses on them are very durable, however, the treatment is long-lasting. The correct and effective oral care of the person will also extend the life of treatments.
