Bone Grafting
It is a surgical procedure which aim to re-pair and re-build diseased or damaged or receding bone area. It can be applied almost anywhere in your body. Surgeons can take bone from your hips, legs, or ribs to perform the graft or they can use chemical ones. Patients can experience a mild discomfort post-operation. The level of it can be compared to the tooth extraction. The recovery process depends on the size of the area. The discomfort can be gone in 2 weeks however, the bone-graft itself will require three months to heal.
Dental Implant
What is implant application?
Implants are screws made of titanium that are used in the treatment of missing teeth and placed inside the jawbone. A dental prosthesis is placed on these screws. The advantage of implant treatment over other treatments is that adjacent teeth are not damaged. That is, adjacent teeth do not need to be cut. The implant acts as a tooth root and you can eat, talk and laugh like a natural tooth.
Dental implant treatment can be a good alternative to inappropriate dentures or bridges. It can be considered as another option when natural tooth roots are missing, since it is not possible to replace dental prostheses.
How to do dental implant treatment depends on the type of implant and the condition of the jawbone. The biggest benefit of implants is that they provide good support for your new teeth.
Why is a dental implant done?
Dental implants are surgically placed on the roots of missing teeth, that is, on the jawbone. Since the titanium in the implants fuses with the jawbone, it does not slip, cause problems or cause bone damage like fixed bridges or prostheses.
Dental implants may generally be appropriate for you if:
If you have at least 1 or more missing teeth,
If you have a jawbone that has completed its growth,
If your bones are sufficient to fix the implants or if you can make bone grafts,
If you have healthy oral tissue,
If you do not have diseases that may cause negative effects in terms of bone healing,
If you cannot or do not want to use dentures,
If you want to improve your speaking,
If you are ready to endure the process for several months.
Who can be treated with implants?
Implant treatment is applied to individuals over the age of 18 who have completed their jaw and face development. Before the treatment, whether the jaw structure is suitable for the implant is determined by X-rays. In diabetic patients, the disease must be regulated before treatment. In those who use blood thinners, the drugs are discontinued before the treatment. Those with osteoporosis can receive implant treatment after receiving appropriate treatment.

E-Max Crowns
E-max Dental Crown Treatment is one of the restorative applications in the aesthetic dentistry today. Lithium disilicate inside of the E-max increases the light transmittance and transparency of the crowns. So, it gives a natural and aesthetic appearance. With this treatment method, which the aesthetic appearance is at the forefront, a perfect smile design is created for the patients. Today, this treatment method is very popular among the celebrities. Special ceramics are used in dentistry to give patients realistic, natural smiles. Unlike other restoration options, E-max is a ceramic material that combines strength and beauty. It does not contain metal. Therefore, the light can shine trough them, as in the natural teeth.
Aesthetic and natural appearance,
Long-lasting quality,
Colour diversity,
Compatibility with the human body.
E-Max crowns are especially preferred for anterior teeth. It is the most popular crown material applied for aesthetics. All-ceramic dental crowns, which provide an ideal harmony with natural teeth, are used as the closest material to the natural teeth in terms of the light reflection. In E-max treatment, there is no metal infrastructure in the material. The grey colour of the metal does not reflect from the gum. The E-Max crown is glass ceramic. It has sufficient resistance to mastication function. The material can be applied very thin so, it allows less filled down. Although the material is thin, its durability is high.

Laminate Veneers
Will I feel pain during the procedure?
The second session in which the teeth will be filled down takes about 1 or 1.5 hours, depending on the number of teeth to be made. Approximately half a millimeter of filling down is performed on the tooth under local anaesthesia. The impression is taken. Although the preparation of the teeth depends on the number of teeth, it can be completed in 1 week. The cementation process takes approximately 2 hours. First, porcelain laminates are placed on the teeth without cemented, and colour harmony and shape are checked. The colour can be changed a little with the cementation colour. If everything is okay, laminates are cemented with special cementations.
What are the Advantages of Laminated Veneers?
The treatment period is short.
It is the most protective aesthetic dental application as there is very little abrasion on the tooth surface.
Due to the porcelain surface structure, coffee and cigarette discoloration is very less compared to natural teeth.
Thanks to its light transmittance, you will have new teeth that look like your natural teeth and that won’t look it is artificial.
Gingival compatibility and protection are very good compared to porcelain crowns. Oral hygiene is definitely more comfortable.
With the model which is specially prepared for you, you can see what your mouth will look like in 3D before your teeth are filled down.
What are the Disadvantages of Laminated Veneers?
It requires clean and precise laboratory and clinical work.
If you have a habit of clenching/grinding, bruxism, you should inform your doctor.
You may have sensitivity to hot and cold right after the teeth are cemented. This is normal and reversible sensitivity.
Hard foods should not be broken with laminate veneers. Although the cementation is strong and the laminates are resistant to abrasion, hard foods should not be broken with the teeth and the laminates must be protected.

Sinus Lifting
First of all, the anaesthesia is made and then the surgeon creates an incision into the gum. After the incision is created, the surgeon pulls back the gum tissue, exposing the bone wall of the sinus. Exposing the bone incisions are made into the back portion of your gum tissue, taking care to avoid the sinus membranes. The surgeon lifts the cut portion of bone up into the sinus cavity, raising the membrane. The procedure takes more than an hour. Patients need to rest at home due to the pain, discomfort, swelling and bruising.
Smile Makeover
Smile design is made by the doctor by examining every detail such as the structure of the face, skin colour, teeth and lips. Oral health problems can be corrected in a few sessions and a successful study can be achieved. It is very important that the teeth and gums are in harmony in smile design. It is the most ideal situation for these to appear at a certain rate while smiling. Smile design means fix a person’s smile to the desired state with techniques such as veneers, bonding, whitening, gingival (gum) operations, bridges and lip shaping. The gums of the person for whom the smile is designed regain their normal appearance, the colours of the teeth, cracks and fractures are corrected, the closing of the teeth is corrected, and the muscles are returned to their normal state. By providing the support to the cheeks with the teeth, more aesthetic and healthier teeth can be obtained. Thanks to the computer-assisted smile programs, you can see how your smile is in harmony with your face after the application, without any prior action. A correct smile design is determined by both the doctor and the patient.

Zirconium Crowns
The teeth structure filling down in a minimal amount from the surface, approximately 1-2 mm or less. A crown is fitted on the abraded teeth area. It imitates a natural and beautiful tooth shape and creates wonderful results in terms of colour and shape. It provides an excellent solution for some aesthetic defects such as discoloured teeth, cracked, broken or crowded teeth, misshapen teeth position as well as some chewing problems.
There are 2 different main type of crowns;
With metal-fused
Without metal-fused
For patients who request more aesthetic smile, dentists are also looking new and more aesthetic approaches. These aesthetic needs make new methods popular for the dental treatment such as Zirconium.
Zirconium is a white coloured substance for tooth making. In Zirconium treatment, there is no need to use metal to support the crown inside. Zirconium is transformed into zirconia ceramic in special furnaces instead of its pure mineral form. Zirconium crowns are from the group of non-metals supported crowns, and offers more natural appearance compared to old school versions of the crowns such as metal-fused porcelain crowns.
Will I feel pain during the procedure?
Filling down procedure is performed under the local anaesthesia. Afterwards, by applying a tooth-coloured temporary crowns, hot or cold sensitivity is prevented. Although very few people experience a slight tingling sensation, in general the process is completed without a problem.

The treatment completed within 5-7 days for the people with unproblematic gums. There can be need for more than one fitting appointment depending on the patient’s and dentist satisfaction.
What will I experience during the procedure?
First the teeth are filled down 1-2 mm more or less. Then impressions are taken and, in the laboratory, according to the patient’s wish and the state of the teeth, new crowns are created with Zirconium substrate in the most appropriate colour. And the final stage, it is fully adapted to the tooth with final check and cemented. Patients can use it without any discrimination from the natural teeth.
What are the advantages of Zirconium Crowns?
The light transmittance of Zirconium Crown is higher than metal fused porcelain crown. It doesn’t create dark colour and you won’t encounter problems such as black colour reflection from the gum line which may be in the metal fused porcelain crowns in time.
In addition, the light transmission feature of Zirconium Crown disappears the matte appearance, and a healthier, more transparent and more natura appearance is obtained thanks to the teeth getting and closest appearance to their original form. So, zirconium crowns are bio-compatible with human body. They are non-allergic. So, you can get your crowns without any doubt.

In the treatment of advanced colour changes that do not give results with bleaching methods, in the diestama where the orthodontic treatment method doesn’t give satisfactory results, in the teeth that are discrete or slightly cracked, in the old fillings with deformed structure, ş-in the restoration of the teeth with excessively abraded teeth, in the usage of bridge on the posterior group is preferred to give more aesthetic and quick results.
What are the aesthetically pleasing advantages of Zirconium Crowns?
Metal which is the substructure of classical porcelain crowns, creates an opaque appearance on teeth to appear lifeless and artificial. This is prevented by Zirconium.
Does the Zirconium Crown cause a change in taste or odour in the mouth?
Its content is not metal, it is not possible t change the taste or cause odour.
Will Zirconium Crowns change colour in the future?
Due to the smooth and slippery surface, there wont be plaque accumulation. For this reason, it is not affected by coloured food such as coffee, tea and cigarettes. Its colour always stays as applied.
How to care for Zirconium Crowns?
Just like our natural teeth, crowns should be brushed twice a day and flossed once a day. If desired mouth shower can be used. With regular check-ups in every 6 months, problem that may occur in the future are prevented.
How long can Zirconium Crowns be used?
If the regular check-ups are done in every 6 months and regular oral hygiene is provided, it can be used for many years. Inside of the crowns there are teeth which are still living tissues. If anything happens in the roots, the life of the crowns may be shortened. As long as the roots are healthy, crowns can be used for many years.
Who can have Zirconium Crown Treatment?
Zirconium crowns can be applied at any age, following eruption of permanent teeth. However, it is in the period of development till the age of 18-20 and space between the teeth can be observed as a result of the enlargement of the chin.
