Dental Treatments

• Dental Bridge

  The dental bridge is placed between the two teeth on the right and left to close the tooth gap caused by the losses. Tooth loss mostly develops due to untreated dental caries, gingival diseases, gingival recession or trauma. A dental bridge is a traditional treatment method that has long been used to replace lost teeth. Since dental cavities affect the person's eating, speaking and facial anatomy, they must be treated. Another factor affecting the dental cavities is the non-aesthetic appearance that occurs when smiling. The treatment of tooth loss both eliminates the difficulty of eating and talking, and allows you to smile with confidence.

  How is Bridge Tooth Treatment Applied?

  Bridge dental treatment is a frequently preferred method for eliminating tooth deficiencies. Dental bridge treatment begins with a general examination of the dentist and taking the patient's dental x-ray. Then, the patient's dental cavities are determined during the examination and bridge tooth treatment is started.

  In the dental bridge treatment, the intact teeth on the right and left of the tooth cavity are rasped and reduced to serve as fixation. Then, the patient's jaw size is taken and the most suitable prosthesis is made. Bridge prosthesis is prepared according to the patient's tooth color and tooth structure. It is ensured that the prepared prosthesis is fully placed in the mouth of the patient and is seated in a way that does not disturb the patient.

  What are the Types of Bridge Teeth?

  The most suitable type of dental bridge is selected by examining the mouth and jaw structure of the patient. Types of dental bridges; traditional bridge, maryland (winged) bridge and implant supported bridge.

  Traditional Bridge

  Traditional dental bridge treatment is the use of a bridge foot to fix the teeth located right next to the missing teeth to the bridge by rasping and reducing them. Then, the prepared dental bridge prosthesis is placed on these fixed teeth.

  Maryland (Wing Bridge)

  Maryland (winged) bridge dental treatment is performed by bonding the bridge to the adjacent teeth. It is adhered to the back of the adjacent teeth, right next to the missing tooth, which is prepared to fill the tooth cavities. This method is a type of dental bridge made without harming healthy teeth. However, it is less preferred than other bridge types in terms of durability.

  Implant Supported Bridge

  Implant supported bridge type is mostly preferred in cases where there is more than one tooth cavity. When applying this method, there is no need to cut the teeth next to the tooth cavity. In order to apply the implant supported bridge type, the patient's jaw structure must be suitable. In cases where there is more than one tooth cavity, the missing teeth are filled with an implant bridge screwed to the jawbone.

  Who Can Have Bridge Dental Treatment?

  There are two different treatment methods for the treatment of missing teeth: implant and bridge teeth. In order to perform dental bridge treatment, the suitability of the patient's bone structure and preferences are checked. Bridge teeth are generally recommended for patients whose oral structure is not suitable for implants.

  What Should Be Considered After Dental Bridge Treatment?

  There are some points that the patient should pay attention to after dental bridge treatment. It is extremely important to clean the bridge teeth so that plaque and food do not accumulate on the teeth. If dentures are not cleaned regularly, caries and gum problems may occur. For this reason, it is necessary to clean the denture and the teeth that fix the bridge teeth regularly.

• Dental Crowns

  Reducing the size of a tooth that decays and loses material over time is called crown veneer. It is applied in mouths with a small number of missing teeth and is adhered to the teeth by reducing and reducing the support teeth prepared in the laboratory. Prostheses are important in terms of eliminating functions such as chewing and speaking and aesthetic tooth appearance. Crowns, on the other hand, are the process of covering the teeth that have decayed, broken or lost material due to other reasons, by reducing them. Dental crowns are frequently used by dentists today.

  What are the Advantages of Crown Veneers?

  The advantages of crown prostheses applied for health and aesthetic purposes in removing tooth cavities are as follows;

  • It is extremely resistant to being bitten.
  • It has a natural tooth appearance.
  • It blends very well with the gums.
  • They do not cause allergic reactions.

  Things to Consider in Crown Veneer Care

  In order for crown veneers to be used both with a natural appearance and long-lasting, the patient should pay attention to oral and dental care. It is very important that the patient brushes his teeth regularly and does not neglect his routine controls. Applying extra pressure and force on veneer teeth should be avoided.

  What are the Application Areas of Crown Coating?

  Crowns made by reducing and covering the teeth are widely used in many dental disorders. Crown veneers differ from crown bridges in several ways. Crown coating treatment is applied for fractures, bruises and deformities in the teeth. In addition, with crown veneers, teeth can be whitened and an aesthetic appearance can be gained. While applying crown dental veneers, zirconium applications as a ceramic infrastructure have also become widespread. Ceramic crowns supported by zirconium, a highly resistant material, make the gums look pinker and healthier.

  How is Crown Veneer Made?

  When the natural crown layer on the tooth is worn out for various reasons and loses its protection, an artificial imitation must be created by the dentist in accordance with the mouth. All of the processes and stages of fixing and gluing the old tooth root in the mold created after the examination and measurements are included in the crown coating, so that all functions are fulfilled as before.

• Dental Implant

  Implants are screws made of titanium, which are used in the treatment of one or more tooth cavities caused by tooth loss and placed in the jawbone. A dental prosthesis is placed on these screws, which are highly compatible with the body. The biggest advantage of dental implants is that there is no damage to the neighboring teeth during application. Implant teeth placed in place of lost teeth act as real teeth. So you can eat, talk and laugh with confidence.

  How Is Implant Treatment Performed?

  Implant treatment is performed with the help of local or general anesthesia. Before starting the treatment, the patient is examined in detail and x-rays are taken. In the next step, the measurements of the remaining teeth and jaw bones are taken. Dental implants are placed in the jawbone in two stages. During the one-stage procedure, the temporary cap is attached after the implant is placed. In the two-stage process, after the dental implant is placed in the jawbone, it is covered with the gum and left to heal. Then, prosthetic heads are attached to the implants. In both of these stages, a temporary bridge is placed. During the healing process, 3 months should be waited for the lower jaw and six months for the upper jaw. Sometimes newly made teeth can be placed on the implants immediately. Thanks to dental implants, patients can safely eat and laugh.

  Who Can't Get Implants?

  Implants are not a suitable treatment for some people. We have listed the people who are not suitable for implant treatment as follows;

  • The implant is not inserted in patients who have not completed their jaw and bone development.
  • Implant treatment cannot be applied to patients who have undergone radiology and chemotherapy from the jaw bones.
  • Implant treatment cannot be applied to women who are pregnant.
  • Implant treatment cannot be applied to patients who suppress the immune system and use drugs such as bisphosphonates, monoclonal antibodies, corticosteroids.
  • The implant operation is performed by evaluating whether the diseases of people with diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, liver and kidney failure, coagulation problems and immune system are under control.

  How Long Do Implants Live?

  An implant made under sterile conditions, with careful planning and using a quality implant brand, can be used healthily for many years with good oral hygiene and periodic dentist checks. Smoking negatively affects the health of implant teeth. In addition, it is recommended that patients with teeth clenching use plaque after implant treatment. The reason for using plaque is to prevent the uncontrolled force caused by tightening from damaging the implant tooth.

• Smile Design

  Smile design is to make the appearance of teeth whose aesthetics deteriorate for various reasons aesthetically by designing them in proportion to the face. With the smile design, the size, shape, color and other features of your teeth are brought into the desired form and a natural and beautiful smile is created. The smile design, also known as the "Hollywood Smile" among the people, allows you to have healthy teeth as well as giving the person a beautiful smile.

  Transactions Performed within the Scope of Smile Design

  Since each person's mouth and tooth structure and the problems that exist in their teeth are different, smile design is a treatment that should be done completely individually. The procedures within the scope of smile design to improve aesthetic tooth appearance and dental health are as follows;

  • Whitening discolored teeth
  • Elimination of tooth crookedness
  • Treating tooth decay and fractures
  • To make the height and width levels of the anterior teeth proportional
  • Removal of dental cavities
  • Reducing the ratio of gums and teeth to the ideal level
  • Completion of missing teeth
  • strengthen teeth
  • dental veneer
  • Aligning the smile with the curves of the lips
  • Elimination of tooth sensitivity problem

  Why Smile Design?

  Smile design is the treatment of teeth to give perfect smile expression. In this treatment, we provide you with the appearance of teeth and gums that are compatible with your facial features according to the measure we call the golden ratio in order for the teeth to reach an aesthetic appearance. The smile design increases the self-confidence of the person and allows him to smile more comfortably and frequently. In this way, you will leave a good impact in your business and social life. A beautiful smile makes one look more dynamic and positive. For these reasons, you may consider having a smile design.

  How to Smile Design?

  While starting the smile design treatment, intraoral and extraoral photographs of the patient and video recording are taken during the conversation and the condition of the teeth is evaluated. Then, many parameters such as the patient's face proportions, the dimensions of the teeth, gingival levels, age, and occupation are taken into account in order to plan the most ideal smile according to the digital design programs. In the next step, these planned smile models are extracted from three-dimensional printers. The smile planned using the mock-up process is transferred to the patient's mouth with temporary materials used in dentistry. At this stage, the final smile is seen without any treatment on the patient's teeth. When the patient requests additional operations regarding the size and form of their teeth, they notify the dentist. At the same time, the patient's speech and dental contacts are also evaluated by the dentist. It is determined whether additional treatments such as gingival procedures, orthodontic treatment, implants are required before aesthetic procedures are performed.

• Zirconium Dental Veneers

  Zirconium veneer is a type of veneer applied to remove existing bruises, fractures and discoloration of the tooth. Zirconium veneers, which have been widely used in recent years, have a much more durable and natural appearance than dental veneers such as metal, porcelain and ceramic. Zirconium veneers also make teeth look whiter and more aesthetic.

  Reasons for Preferring Zirconium Coating

  • To prevent breakage and loss of weak and cracked teeth
  • Preventing the opening of the moving spaces of the teeth
  • smile design
  • Developing and correcting chewing
  • Covering of dental implants, major filling and weakened teeth after root canal treatment
  • Making teeth appear whiter

  How is Zirconium Coating Made?

  In order to perform the zirconium coating process, the problem in the tooth is determined first. The treatment begins with local anesthesia given to the patient. The teeth to be processed are reduced to an appropriate size. Then, measurements are taken with soft materials or digital methods. The appropriate color for the patient is selected by looking at the color scale. Temporary teeth are attached in order not to spoil the aesthetic appearance during the preparation process of zirconium crowns. The zirconium teeth that are measured are prepared in approximately 3-5 days. After the patient's consent is obtained, the temporary teeth are removed and zirconium crowns are attached. Teeth are bonded using special transparent adhesives. Nothing should be eaten for half an hour after gluing.

  What are the Features of Zirconium Veneers?

  Zirconium veneers applied to anterior and posterior teeth have many advantages. The advantages of zirconium crowns, which are generally applied for aesthetic and dental caries, are as follows;

  • They have an extremely solid structure.
  • It resists breakage, cracking and abrasion.
  • It has high resistance to corrosion.
  • It has light transmittance similar to natural tooth enamel.
  • It does not contain metal structures.
  • It is compatible with the gums.
  • Thanks to its light transmission feature, it has the appearance of natural tooth whiteness.
  • It can be used for many years.
  • Does not cause hot cold sensitivity.
  • There is no taste change in the mouth.
  • Unlike metal-supported coatings, it does not cause problems such as bad breath and taste changes in the mouth.
  • Color change is very rare compared to natural teeth.
  • Allergic reaction formation caused by metal does not occur.
  • Since its surface is shiny and smooth, it does not cause plaque accumulation.
• Full Mouth Implant

  It is the treatment of jaws with implants and bridges on implants in case of loss of all teeth in the mouth or tooth extraction for various reasons. Thanks to full mouth implant treatment, you can regain your chewing and speaking functions. In addition, you can laugh with confidence as the non-aesthetic appearance is improved while smiling with full mouth implant treatment.

  How Is Complete Edentosis Treated?

  Complete edentulism is treated with fixed or removable implant-supported prosthesis applications. The desire of patients with a completely edentulous jaw is to have fixed (non-removable) dentures.

  What are the Advantages of Full Mouth Dental Implants?

  The advantages of full mouth dental implants in case of complete edentulism are as follows;

  • Implants preserve bone integrity, thus preventing the risk of bone loss.
  • Full mouth dental implants improve the appearance of the cheek and lip area as they maintain bone height and volume.
  • With full mouth dental implants, speech improves as missing teeth are completed.
  • More efficient and easier chewing function is provided with full mouth dental implants.
  • Full mouth dental implants are quite comfortable and convenient compared to removable removable dentures.
  • Full mouth dental implants have the advantage of lifelong use as long as correct oral care is provided.
  • Thanks to full mouth dental implants, the aesthetic appearance improves and positively affects the social life of the patient.

  How Many Implants Are Made in Full Mouth Dental Implant Treatment?

  Before the treatment of full mouth dental implants, anatomical and morphological conditions should be made suitable. The number of implants to be applied to replace teeth that are lost or need to be extracted for various reasons is one of the determining factors in determining the type of prosthesis. In the treatment of full mouth dental implants, when two or four implants are used, a removable prosthesis with snaps on the implant or an overdenture prosthesis with a bar is made. In the oral implant treatment applied in case of complete edentulism, at least 6 more ideally 8 implants are applied for the fixed bridge. In addition to the full mouth dental implant, the all on 4 implant treatment option, in which 4 implants are applied in fully edentulous jaws, has become a highly preferred method in recent years.

• All On 4

  The All 4 technique is a treatment that allows 4 implants to be placed at certain angles and fixed on the dental prosthesis on the same day in patients who have lost all of their teeth. This technique is a shorter and more cost-effective treatment for patients with no teeth than implant treatment. All on 4 technique, which is a fast and effective treatment, is applied in patients who have no teeth to eliminate the conditions that require advanced surgery due to sinus lift, bone addition and bone insufficiency. Fixed full chin prosthetic restoration is performed on the same day with the All on 4 technique. Thanks to the all on 4 technique, patients who have no teeth for various reasons regain their chewing, speech functions and aesthetic appearance and smile with self-confidence.

  Who Can Apply All On 4 Implant Technique?

  All on 4 technique can be applied to all edentulous patients who have sufficient bone volume and do not have any systemic disease. It can be used immediately after the temporary dental prosthesis, which is fixed on the implant application. However, after all on 4 implant treatment, patients should be fed a recommended diet. Normal nutrition can be returned with a permanent prosthesis to be made later.

  • The All on 4 technique is a fixed dental prosthesis with a single surgical procedure on the same day.
  • It is an easy operation as there is no need for surgical procedures such as bone addition and sinus lifting.
  • It is a short operation.
  • Its cost is lower.
  • It does not require any extra processing.
  • It provides an aesthetic smile to patients who have no teeth.
  • It is easy to clean and maintain.
  • It is suitable and comfortable for patients who cannot use removable prostheses.
  • Its design is different from full dentures.
  • It closes the patient's palate. Therefore, it is easier to use.
  • It is a treatment with few sessions. Therefore, it is a suitable treatment for patients residing in the city and abroad.

  How Is All-On-4 Treatment Performed?

  In the All on 4 treatment, just like in the implant treatment, screws made of titanium and compatible with the body are used. The most important difference between the All on 4 technique and the implant method is how it is positioned. While 8 or 10 implants are used in the implant method for the jaws of patients who have lost all their teeth, only 4 implants are used in the all on 4 technique. 2 implants are placed in the anterior part where the thickest bone tissue is, and 2 implants are placed in the posterior part of the jawbone. Implants placed in the anterior part of the chin are placed at an angle of 90 degrees, while the implants in the back are placed at an angle of 45 degrees to provide the best stability. Then, a temporary prosthesis is prepared according to the measurement taken from the patient. The teeth that need to be extracted are extracted under local anesthesia and implants are placed. Temporary prostheses are attached to these implants. After 3 months, permanent prostheses are attached.

• All On 6

  All on 6 treatment is a fixed prosthesis technique applied by placing 6 implants at certain angles in patients with missing teeth. This treatment is a frequently preferred treatment method like the all on 4 treatment. The all on 6 technique applied for patients with missing teeth can give successful results even in patients with advanced bone loss. The All on 6 technique is much longer lasting than standard implant treatment. Also, the treatment time is shorter. In the classical implant method, more than 8 implants are needed and after the screws are placed, it is necessary to wait at least 3 months for the placement of prosthetic teeth on them. In the All on 6 technique, healthy teeth can be obtained with a single operation.

  To Whom Can All On 6 Implant Technique Be Applied?

  All on 6 implant techniques; It can be applied to patients who do not have any disability to have a dental implant, who do not have a systemic disease and who have sufficient bone volume.

  Situations where this treatment method should be applied are as follows;

  • This method can be applied if there is sufficient bone amount and density in the intermediate area of the premolars of our patients who have lost all their teeth.
  • All on 6 technique can be applied if a good cleaning is done in the extraction sockets after tooth extraction.
  • It can be applied if the patient's oral hygiene is at a good level after tooth extraction.
  • If a laboratory is available for temporary fixed prostheses, the all on 6 technique can be applied.

  How to Apply the All On 6 Technique?

  All on 6 dental implants, which look just like your natural teeth, can replace all your teeth with just 6 implants. The procedure is carried out in two steps. In the first step, implants are placed, and in the second step, dentures are placed. Implant teeth made of titanium can be made of different materials such as all on 6 teeth prosthetic teeth, porcelain and ceramics. Since implants act as tooth roots, they make you feel like you have real teeth. The All on 6 technique avoids the risk of future bone loss.

  How to Feed After All On 6 Implant Technique?

  There are some points that you should be careful about nutrition after the All on 6 technique. After this treatment, our physicians apply a diet to their patients. The prepared diet should be applied for the 3-month period required for the implant and bone to fuse. It is recommended not to consume hard foods and to follow the hygiene rules. Thanks to the permanent prosthesis to be made on the implants later, you can feed without the need for any additional diet.
