As an oral and maxillofacial surgeon with years of experience in dental implant placement, I can confidently say that dental implants are a painless and minimally invasive procedure. At my practice in Istanbul, Turkey, we use the latest techniques and technologies to ensure that our patients have a comfortable and stress-free experience during their implant placement.
One of the reasons why dental implants are painlessly placed is because they are done under local anesthesia. “Local anesthesia ensures that the patient is completely numb and doesn’t feel any pain or discomfort during the procedure,” says Dr. Berk Kasapoğlu, oral and maxillofacial surgeon in Istanbul, Turkey. The anesthesia is administered using a small needle, which numbs the area where the implant will be placed.
Another reason why dental implants are painlessly placed is because of the precision and accuracy of the procedure. At my practice, we use digital imaging and 3D computer-guided surgery to ensure that the implant is placed in the exact location and at the correct angle. This not only makes the procedure more efficient but also minimizes any trauma to the surrounding tissues, resulting in a more comfortable and faster recovery.
During the implant placement procedure, a small incision is made in the gum tissue to expose the jawbone. A small hole is then drilled into the bone, and the implant is placed securely into the hole. “We take great care to ensure that the implant is placed in the right position and at the right depth to maximize its stability and long-term success,” says Dr. Kasapoğlu.
Once the implant is placed, the gum tissue is sutured closed and left to heal for a few weeks. During this time, the implant fuses with the jawbone, creating a strong and stable foundation for the dental restoration. “We provide our patients with detailed aftercare instructions and are available to answer any questions or concerns they may have during the healing process,” adds Dr. Kasapoğlu.
In conclusion, dental implants are a painless and minimally invasive procedure that offers a long-lasting solution for missing teeth. At my practice, we prioritize our patients’ comfort and use the latest techniques and technologies to ensure that their implant placement is painless and stress-free.
