 Dental Implant Treatment in Turkey | Dent Health Istanbul

What is a Single Dental Implant?
 
A single dental implant is a permanent solution to replace a missing tooth, designed to function and look like a natural tooth. The implant consists of three components: a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone, an abutment that connects the implant to the crown, and a custom crown that mimics the appearance of a natural tooth. Single implants are the ideal choice for patients seeking a durable, reliable, and aesthetically pleasing replacement for one or more missing teeth.
 
Single dental implants are particularly advantageous because they prevent bone loss by stimulating the jawbone and offer a stable, fixed replacement that does not require alteration of adjacent teeth, unlike traditional bridges. This makes them a highly preferred option for patients looking to restore function, appearance, and oral health without compromising neighboring teeth.

• Nobel Biocare: Pioneers in dental implant innovation, Nobel Biocare offers cutting-edge implant designs that suit a wide range of clinical cases, providing reliable, long-lasting results.

Key Features of Single Dental Implants

 

• Natural Appearance: The custom crown looks and feels like a natural tooth, blending seamlessly with neighboring teeth.

• Osseointegration for Stability: The titanium implant post integrates with the jawbone, providing a solid foundation and ensuring long-term stability.

• Preserves Jawbone and Facial Structure: Unlike traditional bridges or dentures, implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone deterioration and preserving facial structure.

• High Durability: Made from biocompatible materials like titanium, single implants can last for decades with proper care, making them a one-time investment.

• No Impact on Adjacent Teeth: Unlike bridges, single implants do not require grinding down neighboring teeth, preserving the health of surrounding teeth.

 

Expected Results

 

Patients who opt for single dental implants can expect a natural-looking, fully functional replacement for their missing tooth. The implant provides the same strength, stability, and aesthetics as a natural tooth, allowing patients to chew, speak, and smile with confidence. With appropriate oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, a single dental implant can last a lifetime, providing a permanent solution that enhances both appearance and oral health.

 

Who is a Candidate?

 

Single dental implants are suitable for:

 

• Individuals with one or more missing teeth who want a long-lasting, natural-looking replacement.

• Patients with adequate bone density in the jaw to support the implant post.

• Those seeking a permanent alternative to bridges or partial dentures, with minimal impact on surrounding teeth.

• Patients in good general health, as certain conditions like uncontrolled diabetes may affect healing.

 

Treatment Duration

 

The entire single implant treatment process typically takes 3-6 months from implant placement to final crown fitting, allowing time for the osseointegration process. However, immediate implants may be possible for patients with sufficient bone density, reducing treatment time significantly.

 

Pricing Overview

 

We offer comprehensive single implant packages for international patients, which include:

 

• Luxury accommodation in Istanbul for the duration of your treatment.

    Turkey offers high-quality crowns at competitive prices, making it an affordable choice for dental tourism.

  • I want to have implants in my upper molars, but my bone is not enough.
    Sometimes, the distance between the sinuses and the jawbone may be too short anatomically or due to early extractions. In this case, maxillofacial surgeons perform sinus lift operations and raise the sinus floor and insert artificial bone and bone, making it possible to construct implants.
  • Can the inflammation at the tip of my tooth root be surgically removed?
    In particular, it is possible to correct inflammation and cysts at the root tip of the incisors with a surgery called resection. However, some teeth may not be resectioned due to their location and proximity to anatomical structures.
  • Why does the tooth swell?
    In general, the tooth loses its vitality with caries, trauma, abrasion and the tooth nerve is disturbed. It becomes inflamed and creates inflammation in the root of the tooth. For this reason, facial swelling occurs with pain. Sometimes, facial swelling occurs as a result of inflammation of old root canal treatments.
  • What are the signs that I need a root canal?
    Common signs include severe toothache, sensitivity to hot and cold, swelling, and darkening of the tooth.

    The procedure typically takes 60-90 minutes and can often be completed in a single visit, depending on the tooth’s complexity.
  • How long does a root canal-treated tooth last?
    With proper care, a tooth that has had a root canal can last a lifetime, providing full chewing and biting function.
  • How successful is root canal treatment?
    Root canals have a high success rate, especially when performed with modern techniques and followed by a protective crown.
  • Is root canal treatment painful?
    Modern root canal treatment is virtually painless. Local anesthesia ensures comfort, and most patients experience only mild discomfort afterward.
  • Will I need a crown after a root canal?
    In many cases, a crown is recommended to protect the tooth and restore full function, particularly for molars.
  • Why don't we get root canal treatment for all our teeth and get rid of toothache?
    Pulp tissue provides nourishment and protection of the tooth. The strength of a tooth that has undergone root canal treatment is less than that of a live tooth. For this reason, we try to keep the female alive as much as possible. We do not do root canal treatment unless we have to.
  • Can a root canal save a damaged tooth?
    Yes, root canals treat the infection, allowing the tooth to be preserved and avoiding the need for extraction.
  • How many canals are there in the tooth?

    Early signs include red, swollen, or bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, and gum recession.
  • What is laser therapy for gum disease?
    Laser therapy targets bacteria and removes infected tissue with minimal invasion, promoting faster healing compared to traditional methods.
  • Can gum disease be cured?
    While gum disease can be managed and controlled, early intervention is key. Gingivitis can be fully reversed, but advanced periodontitis requires ongoing maintenance.
  • How to do daily oral care?
    Mechanical cleaning of teeth and gums should be done with brush-paste and dental floss. Brushing the gums with the teeth at a 45-degree angle, and cleaning between the teeth with dental floss is very important for gum health.
  • Can the lost gum tissue be regained?
    It is not possible to regain the lost gingival tissue on its own. Tissue is restored with various surgical techniques. In recent years, gingival tissue has been restored without surgery with stem cell studies, but it is still in the experimental stage.
  • How often should I get treatment for gum disease?
    Follow-up treatments vary; patients with advanced periodontitis may need more frequent check-ups, while those with mild cases should follow standard preventive care.
