Where are implants (screw-retained teeth) placed? It is recommended that implants be placed in the strongest areas of the jawbone, preferably in the strongest areas, and especially between the front and back teeth, if possible evenly distributed so that chewing can be achieved both when biting with the front teeth and when chewing with the back teeth. Chewing forces can be distributed evenly across the jaw. This way, implants […]
What is the average lifespan of a jaw implant?

There are 30-year implants, there are implants that have been in the mouth for 37 years, but we have not seen 50 years. Because the history of implantology is not that long. But we know that an average implant can stay in the mouth for 20-25 years. This means that all implants stay in the mouth for 20-30 years. Here […]

Are There Any Side Effects of Dental Implants?

However, there's a belief that when an implant is placed, my cheek will naturally swell, I'll experience pain, and even the body will reject it. […]
Difference Between Implant and Bridge Prosthesis
If an implant is not placed, the gap here can only be filled with a bridge, which is formed by reducing the teeth behind and in front of the gap. A bridge prosthesis is made by combining this with a body that passes through the gap, which we call a bridge prosthesis. This is a practice that has been done in classical dentistry for 60-70 years. When an implant is placed, we eliminate this bridge system. Teeth can be restored one by one and by applying crowns separately. […]

Fixed and Removable Prosthetics with Implants
One of the biggest reasons why few implants are used is because the bone has eroded. What are Fixed and Removable Dentures with Implants? Nerves pass through the underside of the jawbone. When an implant is placed in a thinned jaw, it's impossible to avoid damaging the nerves in that area. Therefore, implants cannot be placed in most areas of eroded bone, especially the posterior portion. It's possible to elevate and align the bone, but long and slightly […]
