Single tooth implant treatment is a highly effective and long-term solution to replace a missing tooth and regain oral health. Thanks to developing dentistry technology and techniques, it is now possible to obtain a permanent, natural-looking and functional tooth to replace a lost tooth.
This treatment begins with placing an artificial tooth root made of titanium, called an implant, into the jawbone. The implant fuses with the jawbone and fuses with it within a few months. This process ensures that the implant adheres firmly to the jawbone and ensures the long-term success of the treatment.
Single tooth implant is the process of replacing a lost or extracted tooth with an artificial tooth root in the form of a screw made of titanium. The implant is surgically placed in the jawbone and fuses with the bone during the healing process, creating a strong bond. This procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia and is a surgical procedure. After the implant is placed, an abutment is placed over it. Abutment is a connection piece placed on the implant to which the prosthesis will be attached. In the final stage, the prosthetic tooth or crown is placed on the abutment and replaces the missing tooth. This denture is designed to be compatible with the patient’s other teeth and provides a natural appearance and function. A single tooth implant replaces a missing tooth without damaging adjacent teeth while preserving the health of the jawbone. It also provides advantages with its long-term use and a feeling similar to natural teeth. For these reasons, a single tooth implant is a reliable and effective option for treating missing teeth.
A single tooth implant has a number of advantages. First, in terms of natural appearance and feel, implants are supported by dentures that are very similar to other teeth. This allows patients to maintain their smile naturally and aesthetically. Additionally, implants feel like natural teeth, providing comfort during daily activities such as eating and talking. Second, they are long-lasting. When well cared for and with regular dentist check-ups, implants can last longer than other dental treatment options. Third, single-tooth implants offer advantages over traditional bridge treatments in terms of protecting adjacent teeth. While traditional bridge treatments require weakening of the healthy teeth on the sides, implants eliminate this requirement. Fourth, in terms of jawbone protection, implants prevent or reduce jawbone resorption. Fifth, there are comfort and functional benefits. Implant-supported teeth provide patients with a better chewing function and offer a comfortable experience as there is no risk of movement or slippage. Sixth, it increases self-confidence. Replacing missing teeth improves patients’ smiles and speech, which increases their self-confidence and makes them feel more comfortable in their social interactions. Finally, it has easy maintenance. Single tooth implants can be brushed and cleaned like natural teeth and do not require special care. These advantages make single tooth implants a reliable option for treating missing teeth.
