Why Dental Implants?
Dental implants are artificial roots, usually made of titanium, used to support restorations that resemble a tooth or group of teeth to replace missing teeth. Implants are the most advanced method to replace a missing tooth or a group of teeth.
Feeling self-conscious about your missing teeth or wobbly dentures? You’re not alone. Millions of adults are missing at least one tooth. For those who cannot afford this treatment in their own country, we offer dental implants abroad in our first-class clinics along the coast of Turkey. Dental implants are made of titanium today, which means they are biocompatible, totally safe for the human organism. Thanks to its characteristics, titanium is an ideal material for making dental implants and it quickly establishes the requirements of osteointegration, the desired relationship between the dental implant and the bony tissue.
