What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium or zirconia posts surgically placed into the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. Once integrated with the bone through a process called osseointegration, they provide a permanent, rock-solid foundation for crowns, bridges, or full-arch dentures.
Unlike traditional dentures or bridges, implants don't rely on neighbouring teeth for support. They stimulate the jawbone just like natural tooth roots, preventing bone loss and preserving your facial structure for decades to come.
At SaphireDent in Istanbul, we use only premium implant systems from Straumann (Switzerland) and Nobel Biocare (Sweden) - the two most clinically proven brands in the world, backed by decades of research and millions of successful placements.
Benefits of Dental Implants
- Permanent solution - Implants can last a lifetime with proper care, unlike bridges that typically need replacement every 10-15 years
- Natural look and feel - Custom-made crowns are virtually indistinguishable from your natural teeth
- Preserve jawbone health - Implants stimulate the bone, preventing the deterioration that occurs after tooth loss
- Eat anything you love - Enjoy steaks, apples, and corn on the cob without worry
- No damage to adjacent teeth - Unlike bridges, implants don't require grinding down healthy neighbouring teeth
