What Is a Dental Implant?
A dental implant is a biocompatible titanium artificial tooth root placed into the jawbone to replace a missing natural tooth root.
During the healing process, the implant integrates with the jawbone to create a stable foundation. A porcelain or zirconia restoration is then placed on top, providing both functional performance and a natural-looking result.
At Papatya Dental Clinic, implant treatment is planned individually by our dentists following a comprehensive digital oral examination, panoramic X-ray, 3D dental tomography (CBCT), and, when necessary, bone evaluation. Additional procedures such as bone grafting or sinus lifting may also be included in your treatment plan when required.
Who Is It Suitable For?
Dental implant treatment may be suitable for patients who:
- Have one or more missing teeth,
- Prefer a fixed solution instead of removable dentures,
- Are in suitable general health for implant treatment,
- Have sufficient jawbone for implant placement or are suitable for preparatory procedures when necessary.
Suitability for treatment is determined after a clinical examination and radiological evaluation.
