What is a dental implant in Turkey?
A dental implant is an artificial root that is placed in the jawbone. In the shape of a screw, it replaces the root of a missing or damaged tooth in order to accept artificial teeth. These artificial teeth are called implant-supported dentures.
Dental implants in Turkey
A dental implant functions as a shock absorber between the tooth and the jaw, being a 10-15 mm long rod that serves as an attachment point for a false tooth.
Why is it worth getting dental implants?
Here are the benefits:
- Effective and comfortable chewing
- Greater self-confidence and an end to shyness
When to do it?
To get a dental implant, a patient must lose both the tooth and the root. This can be considered on fully developed jaws. If the gums are in poor condition, bone grafting or sinus elevation may be required.
It is recommended that you wait until the jaw is fully developed before embarking on a dental treatment plan in Istanbul, Izmir or Antalya. Therefore, it is recommended that you wait until you are 18 years old before restoring your teeth in Turkey.
People with HIV are also eligible for dental implants.
On the other hand, the following medical conditions are incompatible with dental implants abroad: autoimmune diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, hypertension, and kidney failure.
What type of implant should I choose in Turkey?
Materials Titanium is recommended for our patients in 70% of cases due to its advantages: excellent thermal, mechanical and corrosion resistance. It is also biocompatible with the body.

How is the procedure done in Istanbul?
Making contact
The first consultation takes place online. This is the first contact between the dentist, medical coordinator and patient. It is focused on collecting the necessary information: medical history, photos of the jaw, etc. to determine the possibility of installing a dental implant.
Consultation in the clinic
The second consultation takes place in Turkey. Numerous X-rays are taken using 3D visualization. The gums and bone tissue are analyzed, and an impression of the teeth is made.
Installation of the implant
This operation involves inserting an implant into the gum to act as a root. The surgeon makes an incision in the gum to open the gum flap. Then he drills to the depth to insert the implant.
The surgeon finishes by suturing the gum and inserting a healing screw. A temporary dental crown may also be placed.
The healing stage
The gums remain at rest while the implant fuses with the bone. This stage can last from 2 to 3 months. During this period, it is important to maintain impeccable oral hygiene and take the medications recommended by your surgeon.
Tooth placement
This last stage involves the installation of the denture on the implant. The surgeon uses an abutment to screw it to the implant. It serves as the base for the false tooth. The denture is cut to match the shape, size, and color of the adjacent teeth.
How long does it take to install a dental implant in Istanbul?
One visit can last from 1 to 3 hours. The time it takes to place a dental implant depends greatly on the number of implants to be placed. The dentist's expertise and professionalism also determine the time required.
Does a dental implant hurt?
A dental implant in Istanbul is painless. It is performed under local anesthesia. However, there may be some discomfort in the jaw and gums after the surgery and during the healing period.
The use of painkillers and anti-inflammatory medications will help to better cope with the healing phase. On the other hand, adverse reactions such as swelling, edema, or minor bleeding may occur.
An ice pack applied to the swollen area for 20 minutes is sufficient to reduce swelling.
How many dental implants can be placed at one time?
From 4 to 8 dental implants can be placed in one operation. The operation is performed under general anesthesia.
The techniques for installing several implants in one operation are described below:
All-on-4 technique
This technique involves the insertion of 4 dental implants at once on the day of surgery. Four implants are screwed together on a metal splint. On the same day, temporary prostheses will be installed, which will be replaced with permanent ones later, after healing.
All-on-6 technology
This technique involves the insertion of 6 dental implants at the same time to strengthen the support of new dentures. It is recommended for the treatment of people who have been toothless for a long time.
How long is the stay in Istanbul for a dental implant?
The dental implant procedure in Turkey requires two visits to Istanbul:
The first medical stay in Istanbul lasts 5 days and allows you to install the implant in the gum tissue;
It is worth noting that the prosthesis can be installed even after 6 months. The longer you wait, the more you can be sure of good healing.
Security measures
To ensure the success of your dental implant and optimal recovery, here are the precautions you need to take:
- Don't smoke;How long can I not smoke after a dental implant?
After dental implants are placed, we recommend that you stop smoking altogether. This is because smokers have a higher risk of developing an infection after bone implantation. However, we understand that quitting smoking from one day to the next is not easy.
We can only recommend that you limit your intake as much as possible so that you can give up this habit step by step, and not resume smoking until 3 or 4 months after implantation.
