Frequently asked questions

How long does implant treatment take?

Placing the implant into the jawbone takes about 15-30 minutes in most cases. However, the implant generally needs a healing period of two to three months to fuse with the bone. After this period, the permanent tooth is made on top of the implant.

Is it possible for the body to reject the implant?

Dental implants are usually made of tissue-friendly titanium. Implant failure doesn't happen in the classic sense of organ rejection. Causes of failure can include insufficient bone structure, infection, uncontrolled systemic diseases, inadequate oral hygiene, and heavy smoking.

I have diabetes. Can I still get an implant?

If your diabetes is controlled with medication and your blood sugar levels are within an appropriate range, implant treatment can be performed. Before treatment, your HbA1c level and general health are assessed to create a personalized plan.

I have osteoporosis. Can I get an implant?

Osteoporosis alone is not an absolute barrier to implant treatment. The height and width of your jawbone are assessed using three-dimensional imaging methods. When bone volume is insufficient, a suitable site for the implant can be created using bone grafts, or materials popularly known as "bone powder."

As I get older, will I definitely have to use a removable denture?

No. If the condition of your jawbone and your general health allow, you can benefit from implant-supported fixed or removable denture options even if you have no teeth left at all.

I have a missing tooth. Should I get an implant or a bridge?

Which treatment is suitable depends on your bone condition, the health of neighboring teeth, the number of missing teeth, and your general health. Implant treatment doesn't require reducing healthy neighboring teeth, whereas a bridge requires support from the teeth on either side of the gap.
