What Should Be Considered When Getting Dental Implants?

For those experiencing tooth loss and jawbone problems, the most trending solution is dental implants. A dental implant performed with high-quality materials and by a skilled dentist provides results as natural as your own teeth. When applied correctly, it can last a lifetime in the mouth. As with many medical treatments, the success rate of dental implants may vary from person to person. It has been determined that certain chronic conditions such as diabetes, osteoporosis, and sinus problems can prevent the implant from integrating with the bone. In short, it is very important for individuals with chronic illnesses or drug allergies to undergo necessary examinations before treatment. When getting dental implants, special attention should be paid to the following details: - Material made of pure titanium - Having a patented and reputable brand - The dentist’s professional experience and success in implant procedures - A sterile clinic environment - Compatibility of the jawbone with the implant After Dental Implant Procedure The post-treatment period is just as important as the pre-treatment stage in dental implant applications. After the procedure, minor bleeding in the form of leakage may occur. To allow numbness to subside, food and drink should be avoided. For pain or discomfort, painkillers prescribed by the dentist should be used. Smoking and alcohol consumption should be strictly avoided for 24 hours. Following the dentist’s recommendations for oral and dental care positively affects the healing process.

Freedom to Smile with Hidden Braces

A “perfect smile” not only corrects facial symmetry but also contributes to the improvement of overall appearance. Although patients want to have straight teeth and a perfect smile, they often avoid wearing braces that would lead them to the desired result due to aesthetic concerns. For patient groups with high aesthetic sensitivity (politicians, business professionals, artists, models, athletes, etc.), lingual braces are the best alternative to traditional brackets. Patients consult orthodontists to achieve a perfect smile. A “perfect smile” not only corrects facial symmetry but also contributes to the improvement of overall appearance. Although patients want to have straight teeth and a perfect smile, they often avoid wearing braces that would lead them to the desired result due to aesthetic concerns. For patient groups with high aesthetic sensitivity (politicians, business professionals, artists, models, athletes, etc.), lingual braces are the best alternative to traditional brackets. Thus, patients can achieve the best results without compromising their appearance, thanks to a system that is impossible for others to notice. The word “Lingual” literally means the tongue side of the teeth. As the name suggests, lingual orthodontics is a technique in which the brackets that hold the wires applying force to the teeth are placed on the back surfaces of the teeth, facing the tongue, instead of the front surfaces facing the lips. This treatment method, which began to be used in the late 1970s, has developed over the years and, with the influence of advanced technology, has become almost flawless today. Previously limited to certain cases, this system can now be used in most cases.

Dental Implant Application In Which Cases?

People with missing teeth not only suffer from an aesthetically unfavorable appearance but also cannot perform functional tasks such as chewing. Due to tooth loss, the closure of the mouth changes and can cause major problems in the jaw joint. Psychologically, it leads to a lack of self-confidence. Dental implant treatment is a life-saving solution in such cases. It is a successful treatment for regaining ideal oral health in teeth lost due to trauma, decay, or periodontal disease.Over time, problems such as resorption occur in the jawbone where teeth are missing. Since dental implants are applied without taking support from neighboring teeth, they are more protective compared to traditional bridge applications.In cases of severe bone loss where the patient can no longer use dentures, implants can be applied to the upper and lower jaws. Afterwards, prostheses are placed and fixed on the implants.For single tooth loss, implants can be applied to prevent damage to healthy neighboring teeth.In the absence of large molars, one or more implants can be applied instead of removable dentures. With fixed bridges placed on implants, chewing function can be successfully restored.Since implant screws have a certain thickness and width, the jawbone where the application will be made must be suitable to accommodate the implant screw. The quality of the jawbone is also an important factor for the successful outcome of implant treatment.

Gum Diseases

Gum diseases are inflammatory conditions that affect the gums and other tissues supporting the teeth. They are responsible for 70% of tooth loss in adults. When diagnosed at an early stage, these diseases can be treated easily and successfully. Preventing or treating gum diseases also brings additional benefits such as preserving natural teeth, enabling more comfortable chewing, and ensuring better digestion. Gum disease begins with gingivitis, which is the early stage of the condition. At this stage, the gums are bleeding, red, and enlarged in volume. In the early period, it may not cause much discomfort. If left untreated, the disease progresses to periodontitis, causing irreversible damage to the alveolar bone that supports the gums and teeth.

How Dental Abscess Passes

Dental health and mouth bruises are sometimes ignored by most of us. However, teeth that are not treated and maintained in a timely manner may cause much bigger problems in the future. Especially in dental caries, infections that spread to the roots and gums cause tooth loss. This condition is described as abscess. Teeth and surrounding tissues that are exposed to infections swell and cause pain. Tooth roots, which die due to the effects of the infections in time, cause pain to rest, but infections spread to the healthy teeth.
