Missing teeth can cause serious issues, both aesthetically and functionally. From difficulties in eating to a loss of self-confidence, the impact can be significant. Fortunately, dental implants offer an excellent solution to these problems today.

Dental implants are a modern treatment method that provides the closest alternative to natural teeth. An implant consists of an artificial tooth fixed onto a titanium screw placed into the jawbone. This method allows for both aesthetically pleasing and functionally satisfying results in replacing missing teeth.

Compared to other dental treatment methods such as dentures and bridges, implants offer several advantages. Firstly, implants provide the closest feeling to natural teeth and perform the same functions. Additionally, their structure, which integrates with the jawbone, makes them long-lasting and durable. This means that implants can be a lifelong solution.

The implant treatment process involves several stages and is planned according to each patient's situation. The first step is for the dentist to assess the area where the tooth is missing and determine if it is suitable for implant placement. If deemed suitable, the implant is placed, and a healing process of several months begins. After this healing period, the treatment is completed by fixing a prosthetic tooth onto the implant.

Dental implants offer an excellent solution to the aesthetic and functional problems that can be caused by missing teeth. This treatment method is both comfortable and long-lasting, providing results that are closest to natural teeth.
