There are situations when losing a tooth is inevitable. Although some do not think much of replacing the missing teeth, it can often be vital to your health and your confidence to maintain your mouth’s full functionality and comfort.
Missing teeth can affect the way you look, chew and speak. Leaving an empty space in your mouth after losing a tooth can cause your other teeth to shift and trigger other problems like jawbone deterioration.
At Smile More Dental Clinics, our Implantologists offer dental implants with the highest success rate to patients who are looking for a long term-solution to missing teeth.
Dental Implant Solutions For Different Situations
Some patients need one or two implants while others require full-arch same-day restorations. At the clinic, we offer a variety of dental implant solutions that are used for different situations. With the right hands, you can be sure that your implants and crowns will look, feel and function just like your natural teeth.
Smile More Dental Clinics is the go-to clinic in Turkey for dental implants with the highest success rate
A dental implant is a titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone as a support for a replacement tooth. Unlike removable dentures or bridges, dental implants offer superior stability, functionality and will not affect neighboring healthy teeth. Your implants will mimic the strength of your natural teeth and will preserve the vitality of your jawbones
All-On-4 Dental Implants
Dental implants with the highest success rate
All-on-4 Dental Implants purely means that a full arch of artificial teeth is supported by 4 dental implants only. Typically the back implants in the upper and lower jaw are placed tilted in order to get bone anchorage and avoid anatomical structures. The term All-on-4 also comprises that the inserted implants are immediately (within 24 hours) loaded with a fixed arch of teeth.
Traditionally, more than four implants were placed to support a full arch of artificial teeth! The implants were of course placed straight and parallel in conformity with pre existent teeth and definitely not angulated on purpose. Also, a healing time of several months was adhered to before these implants were loaded with the arch of artificial teeth!
- Safe and long-term solution to missing teeth
- Accurate and predictable placement of implants
- Shorter treatment times
- Eliminates the need for bone grafts
- Rapid improvement in patient’s quality of life
- High dental implant success rates
- Reduced postoperative bruising and swelling
- Faster postoperative recovery and healing time
This treatment concept was developed to surpass the need of bone augmentation by tilting the back implants towards the region of available bone. Thus the maxillary sinus is surpassed in the upper jaw and the mental nerve is surpassed in the lower jaw.
Reducing the amount of needed dental implants of course also reflects in the financial load for the patient.
The All-on-4 concept is typically a treatment for patients with insufficient jaw bone quantities. It will be usually performed in patients who had lost their teeth many years ago and with it the surrounding bone structure. The All-on-4 treatment is the minimal requirement for a fixed implant bridge.
Nevertheless, in case the quantity of bone and the financial means are not restrictive, then placement of more implants (i.e. All-on-6) can achieve a safer situation for the patients in the long term.
It is purely the experience of surgery in the mouth after injection of local anaesthesia. The actual implant placements are usually less invasive then a tooth extraction and even postoperative complications such as swelling, bruising, discomfort are in general less prominent than after extraction of multiple teeth.
For the prosthetic restoration with a fixed arch of artificial teeth (implant bridge), an impression will be taken intraorally directly after implant placement. The placement of the temporary implant bridge usually takes place the following day within 24 hours and only seldom needs the application of local anaesthesia.
After a healing period of approximately 3 months, all implants will be checked for stability and the temporary fixed implant bridge will be replaced with a permanent fixed implant bridge that pays attention to the new conditions of healed gums.
