Dental Implant

What is a Dental Implant ?

Dental implant is an artificial tooth roots and it is usually made by pure titanium. It is shaped like a screw. If you have missing tooth, dental implant is the most accurate treatment method for replacement. It doesn’t damage the other teeth.

Correct planning is the key and the first step for dental implants. In ACIBADEM Dental Clinics, high-tech 3D imaging systems are used for the detailed bone structure.

After planning, the implant is applied to the jawbone by a qualified surgeon. It takes approximately 2 months for the implant to fuse with the lower jawbone. The period is 3 months for the upper jawbone.

Once the healing is complete, an abutment is placed to the dental implant. Abutment is the attachment point for the planned prosthesis. A crown, bridge or removable prosthesis can be attached to abutment.
