During implant treatment, the process of closing the screws placed in the jaw without making any cuts and without stitching is called Seamless implant treatment.
In the classical implant treatment method, to place the screws, a cut must first be made in the gums and the screws are placed from there. This process is then completed by stitching the gums. However, in seamless implant treatment, the implants are placed without any cutting in the gums. With this method, the treatment time is shortened and possible infection is prevented.
There are two procedures in implant treatment. The first of these is the placement of the implant in the jawbone. It is necessary to wait a while for the screw to fuse well with the jawbone. After this period, the teeth made of ceramic and porcelain are fixed on the screw, which is the second stage of the treatment, and the process is completed. In procedures that will be performed without stitches, the implant and support tooth are placed in the same session and the treatment is completed.
Of course, seamless implant treatment has both advantages and disadvantages.
What are the Advantages of Seamless Implants?
- The procedures are completed faster compared to a normal implant treatment.
- Since there is no incision, possible infections are prevented.
- Since there is no risk of bleeding and edema, there is a smoother healing process.
What are the Disadvantages of Seamless Implants?
- The cost is higher than a normal implant treatment.
- The jawbone to be made must be very strong.
- Otherwise, this operation cannot be performed. It is very important that the surgeon who will perform this procedure is experienced in these procedures.
What is the Seamless Implant Treatment Process?
In these procedures, first of all, a special jaw tomography is taken to determine whether the patient’s jawbone is sufficient. As a result of the tomography obtained, surgical process planning is made. As a result of the 3D tomography images obtained, the areas where the implants will be placed are determined.
By making a very small hole in the patient’s gum, the implant is placed in the hole and porcelain or ceramic teeth are mounted on the implant and the treatment is completed in approximately 10-15 minutes.
Seamless Implant Prices
It is more expensive than normal implant treatment because it needs to be performed by a more specialized physician along with the tomography. You can contact us to get an exact figure. When determining prices, prices vary depending on the patient’s current tooth structure and the number of teeth to be repaired.
