Can Dental Implants Be Done in One Day?
Dental implant surgery is a simple procedure that takes an average of 15-20 minutes for a single implant. However, if we are performing full mouth dental implant surgery, this period may extend up to 2.5-3 hours depending on the number of implants. Therefore, we can complete dental implants treatment in Turkey within 1 day.
Can Dental Implants Fall Out?
The success rate of dental implants is quite high. Loss or fall out of circular dental implants is extremely rare. The probability of failure as a result of an implant surgery performed by a specialist physician is very low.
However, patients should stay away from anything that will affect the fusion process of the implant to the jawbone after implant surgery. These are situations such as using too much cigarette-alcohol or applying too much force on the implants during the healing process. Therefore, in such cases, patients may lose their implants.
Can Food Get Under Dental Implants?
Unlike natural teeth, it is not possible to get food stuck under implant teeth. Because we place the teeth on the implant so that there is no gap. However, if you encounter such a situation, it means that your implant was not placed properly. Therefore, you will need to consult your doctor again.
Can I Have All My Teeth Pulled and Get Implants?
Yes, we can remove all your teeth and replace them with full mouth dental implants in Turkey. Moreover, if there are no serious infections in your tooth roots, we can apply your tooth implants in our centre in Turkey on the same day after tooth extraction.
Can Implants Get Infected?
In some cases, infection may occur from improper application of the implant or from surrounding tissues. This infection is called Periimplantitis. If this infection is not treated, it causes bone loss around the implant. Therefore, the risk of losing the implant due to this infection is very high. For this reason, when choosing a clinic and doctor for your dental implant treatment in Turkey, you should choose specialist and reliable clinics.
Can You Get a Temporary Tooth While Waiting For an Implant?
If you are a patient suitable for temporary dentures, we provide temporary dentures after tooth extraction while you wait for the implant. However, this does not apply to every situation.
Do Dental Implants Get Cavities?
No, there is no decay in dental implants. Because these are artificial teeth made of porcelain. However, for the surrounding tissues and gum health, you should definitely do daily oral care for dental implants.
