How are dental implants done? People who have problems with their teeth but do not prefer traditional solutions such as dentures and cannot make a decision, they wonder how the dental implant process is done. The mouth determines the type of implant and the method of application.
The implant is a screw-shaped material made of titanium that is placed inside the jawbone. It is designed to replace the root of the tooth.
Another tooth-shaped material is placed on this implant, this material is usually zirconium or metal-reinforced porcelain.
As with all surgeries, dental implant surgery also poses some side effects.

Inflammation at the site of cultivation.
Injury or damage to surroundings such as teeth or other blood vessels Nerve damage, which can cause pain, numbness or tingling.
Sinus problems.
The dental implant process consists of two stages: the surgical (implant) stage and the installation stage.
The surgery takes about 15 minutes per implant under normal circumstances. It changes according to the condition of the jaw bones and the number of implants to be placed.
Dental implants are placed in the jawbone under local anaesthesia. So there will be no pain during the operation. You may feel pain when the anesthesia wears off 3-4 hours after the operation. This level of pain can vary from person to person, of course painkillers will be prescribed to reduce this pain.
After the implants are surgically placed, you should wait two to four months. This waiting period is the time required for the implant to fuse with the jawbone, which is called “osseointegration”.
The installation stage, the upper crown is manufactured to be installed on the pre-implanted implants, and 3D planning systems are used to obtain teeth suitable for the patient’s mouth and the long-term success of the implant.
Dental implants have many benefits such as;
A radical and permanent solution to get rid of dental problems
