How is a Dental Implant Applied?

How is a dental implant applied?; Implant and prosthesis specialist Prof. Dr. Ömer Kutay answers frequently asked questions. The successful dentist explains how to apply an implant.

A dental implant can be applied with a very simple surgical procedure. Whether the tooth is extracted immediately or is to be used to replace a previously extracted tooth, the dental implant is placed in the jawbone with a simple procedure similar to a tooth extraction.

Application of the implant

Let's say we have extracted a tooth 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 where the implant will 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 the implant is going to be placed in place of a previously extracted tooth, then it is necessary to open a slot for the implant in that area. There is a ready-made set of implants for this. First, the slot is prepared from thin to thick with very small burs that drill 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 is placed through that hole and can be done without stitches. As a result, we can say that applying the implant is a simple process.

Is There Pain During Implant Application?

Is There Pain During Implant Application? One of the most curious topics about implant treatment is whether there is pain during the operation. One of the most searched topics about implants on the internet is whether there is pain during the operation. Implant and prosthesis specialist Prof. Dr. Ömer Kutay answers the question of whether there is pain during implant application:

“There is no pain during the application of implants. The most common thing patients say is, ‘you’re going to drill a hole in my bone and who knows how much it’s going to hurt?’ This is not the case. Because the amount of nerve tissue in the bone is much less than in soft gums, so bone is not a tissue that hurts that much. It is a tissue with less vitality and nerves. Therefore, opening a socket in the bone is not a painful procedure at all. We know that patients do not experience pain even on the same day after the implant placement procedure, which is done with careful application.

We know that when there is inflammation in that area and these are cleaned or when more extensive operations are performed, the pain is a little more. A scale can be given here. Let's say the most pain is 10, and the pain that will be felt after the implant will be at most 6 out of 10. We usually start the patient on an antibiotic and a painkiller one day before the implant treatment. This medication, which is started one day before, is already in the bloodstream during the implant. Thus, the pain felt after the implant is reduced to 2 out of 10, and sometimes there may be no pain at all.
