Dental Bridge

When one or more teeth are missing, a dental bridge is a compromise between dentures and implants. As the name implies, a dental bridge is meant to bridge a gap left by missing teeth. A bridge is usually anchored to natural teeth at both ends of the gap and may be made of one or more false teeth called pontics. In some cases, a bridge may be attached to an implant for greater security and stability. A bridge is often made of porcelain to look like natural teeth and must be brushed and flossed regularly. Special flossing aids called threaders may be necessary to get floss between the bridge and the gum line.

Here’s the typical process for getting a bridge:

  • At the first appointment, the anchor teeth on either side of the bridge are filed into shape and a mold is made of your mouth. A temporary bridge may be made to fill in the gap while a permanent one is made within a couple of days.
  • At the second appointment, the permanent bridge is fitted into place. Any necessary minor adjustments are made so that the bridge looks natural and works with your natural bite. The bridge is then cemented into place.
  • A well-made bridge can last for decades, but 5 to 15 years is a reasonable expectation.

Mouth And Dental Health

Implant Application

  • It is an artificial tooth root placed in the jawbone for functional or aesthetic purposes, for one or more tooth loss.
  • The implant consists of 3 parts:
  • Implant: Artificial tooth root placed in the jawbone
  • Abutment: connecting apparatus between implant and crown
  • Coating: the part that connects to the implant thanks to the abutment

In standard implants, the titanium surface is smoothed with acid and sand to provide more bone retention. However, if adequate sterilization is not achieved, it may not hold for no reason. Our implants have received the 'Clean Implant Award' for 4 consecutive years around the world. Bacteria and lesions are caused by poor oral hygiene.

  •  Smile Makeup

The smile design is designed after examining every detail such as the structure of the face, skin color, teeth and lip structure. Oral health problems can be improved in a few sessions and a successful result is obtained. It is very important for smile design that the teeth and gums are in harmony. These need to show up to a certain extent when you smile. Smile design means bringing one's smile to the desired state with techniques such as coating, whitening, gingival operations, bridges and lip shaping.

The gums of the person whose smile is designed regain their normal appearance, the colors of the teeth, cracks and fractures are corrected, the closure of the teeth is corrected and the muscles are returned to their normal state. Today, thanks to computer-assisted smile programs, it is possible to see how compatible your smile is with your face after the application without any operation, even before you start the treatment. The most accurate smile design can only be revealed as a result of the coordinated work of the doctor and the patient.

First of all, before the laminate is attached to the teeth, it is placed on the teeth and the color harmony and general structure are checked. If everything is in order, the laminates are glued with a special adhesive.

  • Teeth whitening

Teeth whitening is a method of applying a special whitening gel to the teeth and applying radiation therapy to increase the whitening effect of the gel. The absence of any intervention and side effects on the teeth makes this procedure very popular. Healing Process; The recovery period of the whitening process does not exceed 1 day. According to studies, people who have stains on their teeth due to consumption of tea, coffee and cigarettes have a higher satisfaction rate. Excessive use of tea and coffee causes staining on the teeth. Therefore, it shortens the whiteness life. Regular check-ups prolong the whiteness life of the teeth. If possible, the bleaching process can be repeated every 6 months.
