Implants and prosthetic dentist Prof. Dr. Omer Kutay answers frequently asked questions. Successful dentist explains how to apply the implant. Dental implants can be applied with a very simple surgical procedure.
Whether the tooth is being extracted immediately or to replace a previously extracted tooth, the dental implant is placed in the jawbone with a simple procedure similar to a tooth extraction.
Let's say we have a tooth extracted and we will place an implant in its place. As soon as the tooth is extracted, the implant can be easily placed in the extracted tooth space. Because the socket for the implant to be placed is ready. It doesn't matter whether it is a front tooth or a back tooth.
If the socket of the extracted tooth is smooth, it is possible to place the implant there and it is a very easy process. Let's say implant If a previously extracted tooth is to be replaced, then a socket needs to be opened for the implant in that area. There is a ready-made set of implants for this. First, the socket is prepared from thin to thick with very small burs that drill into the bone. and the implant is placed.
During this time, the gum can be cut and lifted. It can also be done by fully exposing the bone and seeing it. Or, a small hole is opened, which we call a closed operation, and the implant can be placed through that hole and it can be done without stitches. As a result, we can say that applying the implant is a simple process.
