Zirconium implants are an aesthetic and durable solution for missing teeth in dental practice. Made from zirconium dioxide material, these implants provide a appearance similar to natural teeth and are easily accepted by the body thanks to their biocompatible properties. The process begins with placing the implant into the jawbone; over time, it integrates with […]
The lifespan of an implant varies depending on both personal care habits and the quality of the materials used. To ensure a long-lasting implant, using dental floss and regular visits to the dentist are of great importance. Not smoking, limiting alcohol consumption, and receiving treatment from an experienced dentist also contribute to implant health. If […]
The timing of implant placement after tooth extraction varies according to individual health status and the structure of the jawbone. The doctor may place the implant immediately after the extraction; this helps prevent bone loss. However, immediate implant placement can involve slightly more risk initially. Early implant placement can be performed about 4-8 weeks after […]
The number of dental implants can vary depending on an individual’s oral structure and needs. Theoretically, one implant can be placed for each missing tooth, with a maximum number of up to 32. However, it is not common to use that many implants in complete oral restorations. For example, methods like the All-on-4 technique can […]
A single tooth implant is a commonly preferred method in modern dentistry to replace a missing tooth. In this procedure, an implant made of titanium is placed in the jawbone to fill the gap left by the lost tooth. After the implant has fully integrated with the jawbone, a custom dental crown is added on […]
Dental tomography is an advanced imaging method that allows detailed examination of the teeth and jaw-face area. Known as cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), this technology provides three-dimensional and high-precision images. It is used in many areas such as implant planning, evaluation of jawbone, analysis of impacted teeth, and detection of pathological formations. CBCT provides […]
Dental radiography plays a critical role in the diagnosis and treatment processes of dentistry. It is used to detect many issues such as periodontal diseases, cysts, tumors, and developmental disorders. By providing detailed imaging of the jawbones and surrounding tissues, it allows for the diagnosis of conditions that might not be noticed in standard examinations. […]
Our teeth are not only an essential part of our appearance but also a cornerstone of our nutritional comfort. However, over time, age, eating habits, trauma, or various diseases can affect the appearance and health of our teeth. It is at this point that a special application called “composite laminate” comes into play. In short, […]
Oral and dental health is not just an instrument of a symphony where the integrity of the body is preserved; it is also a crucial field that directly affects quality of life. The existence and health of teeth are essential because people maintain their social interactions, such as eating, speaking, and smiling, in daily life. […]
Diastema (gap teeth) refers to the condition where there are noticeable gaps between the teeth. It is commonly observed between the front teeth and is often regarded as an aesthetic issue in society. However, considering the underlying causes and potential oral health problems that may arise over time, it may sometimes require prompt treatment. Diastema […]
Crossbite teeth, medically referred to as “malocclusion” or “misalignment of teeth”, is a condition where teeth are not aligned correctly in the jaw, leading to the upper and lower jaws not closing uniformly. In short, this condition arises when the teeth are not properly aligned in the dental arch and the upper and lower jaw […]
Dental root inflammation, also known as dental root infection, is a condition that arises when bacteria invade the living tissue called “pulp,” which makes up the inner part of the tooth. When the outer hard enamel layer and the underlying dentin layer are damaged, they allow microbes to penetrate, causing inflammation in this sensitive tissue. […]
