A lovely smile is determined by the ratio of tooth to gum.
In juvenile healthy gums, the areas between the teeth are filled with gums. Diseases of the periodontium can lead to degenerative changes of the gums, causing so-called black triangles to become visible between the teeth. These make the smile age, the teeth are now relatively long.
Predominantly more women than men suffer from a so-called Gummy-Smile, while the smile appears overly excessive gums, which makes the teeth seem far too small. In the case of an aesthetically pleasing smile, it is above all the teeth that stand out, whereby the course of the gingiva is just as noticeable. In order to achieve a harmonious picture, not only the teeth, but also the gums must be treated.
What is a root canal treatment?
Root canal treatment (also known as root canal treatment) is a dental technique that provides dead or inflamed teeth. The bacteria are removed with special instruments and the function of the tooth is restored. He therefore does not have to be drawn. Successful root canal treatment can preserve the tooth for many years or even decades.
Root canal treatment: when needed?
A root canal treatment, also called root canal treatment, is often the last resort to save a sick or injured tooth. The result can usually be seen over many years. Today no one has to fear the intervention anymore. In tooth root inflammation
Bacteria attack the tooth substance and are not stopped in time, they reach the inside of the tooth and the tooth root. The unrecognized or untreated caries often leads to inflammation of the tooth root. Root canal treatment can save the diseased tooth.
Root canal treatment with dentures Also, the insertion of a crown or dental bridge may precede a root canal. If the dentist has to remove a great deal of the tooth substance, the dental pulp is partially or even completely exposed. Bacteria could now easily penetrate and cause inflammation of the tooth root. To prevent this possible tooth root inflammation, the dentist often removes the pulp completely. Crown or tooth bridge are then secured longer.
How long does a root canal treatment take at the dentist?
A session lasts on average 60 minutes, but may take more or less time. The actual duration of treatment depends on the individual case After root canal treatment, the tooth is usually painless. Since he is no longer supplied with blood, he has also become unstable. In most cases, the treated tooth is then crowned. How exactly to proceed further, the doctor and patient discuss in the root canal aftercare
Over time, the teeth discolor due to external influences. Every food contains colorants that can accumulate in the enamel, but are especially responsible for such things as coffee, tea, red wine, cola and tobacco. However, modern dentistry offers several methods to lighten the darkened teeth.
Home bleaching: Bleaching is done at home. The patient receives from the doctor a carrier rail on which he applies the bleaching gel and which he puts on the teeth every night.
In Office Bleaching:This procedure is done under dental supervision in practice, the gums are better protected and the bleaching process is significantly accelerated. In these methods, a beam source is used and the bleaching with gels which assures a faster and better effect.
In both methods, bleaching must be preceded by thorough professional teeth cleaning, and abstinence from the above-mentioned stimulants – for about one to two weeks.
Walking Bleach: Root-treated teeth will turn grayish over time. These individual teeth can also be lightened from the inside with strong bleach. The bleaching gel remains in the tooth for a few days. You can even do it again if you wish.
After bleaching, a temporary hypersensitivity of the teeth may occur, which usually sets in a short time again. The procedure is not harmful to the teeth, so it can be repeated several times,at certain intervals.
Orthodontics is the correction of tooth abnormalities with special equipment.
and is the specialty of the dental industry, which diagnoses and controls the harmony of non-compliant and vertical teeth, attempts to prevent and treat them. Braces species
The type of tooth regulation depends on how strongly a jaw or tooth malposition is pronounced. A specialist decides whether the teeth are regulated by removable or fixed braces.
The main purpose of dental prosthesis; it allows the regaining of lost functions. Correction of impaired speech function and aesthetic appearance is provided by dental prosthesis.
Brackets – fixed braces The term “bracket” comes from the English language and means among other things “bracket”. Brackets are common fasteners for fixed braces and come in pronounced tooth malposition used. The orthodontist glues them (consisting of metal or ceramic) on the outside or inside of the tooth. Bonding with the tooth surface creates a starting point for moving the teeth. The patient himself can not remove the brackets.
External braces The visible archwire on the anterior teeth serves as the orientation plane of the arch form. This is how the teeth get into the right position. The orthodontic appliances generate pressure on the teeth so that they move until the ideal position is reached. The pressure is generated on the one hand by the brackets on the tooth surface itself as well as by the arch, which leads through all the brackets. A “ligature” that holds the arch in the bracket with an elastic material supports this process. For external brackets, there are also different colors depending on your personal aesthetic understanding.
Internal braces An externally invisible form of orthodontic therapy can be achieved with the Incognito-Lingual technique, which is especially popular with adults. Individually produced brackets are attached to the inside of the teeth. The teeth are then moved with individualized wires in the correct position.
Removable / removable braces Removable braces are one of the most popular forms and are often used during tooth growth. It consists of a plastic center piece, in which brackets are incorporated. The braces are close to the inside of the teeth and the jaw is stretched so gently. When designing the braces plate, there is a large selection of motifs and colors, so that children can actively participate. Adults often refrain from using color and prefer the “invisible braces”.
How long does a brace have to be worn?
The duration of the tooth regulation depends on the degree and type of malposition, the age of the patient and the type of regulation. This varies from case to case. Most orthodontic children’s treatments last 3-4 years. Smaller misalignments can be regulated in less time. Although the teeth can be put in the desired position relatively quickly, there is a risk that they will slip back just as quickly if they are not held in the right position for long enough.
How does the treatment work?
Before the actual treatment begins, the first consultation and diagnosis is carried out by an expert. For this purpose, the jaws, teeth and chewing function are thoroughly examined. This allows the attending physician to determine if orthodontic care is necessary. He then creates a treatment plan based on the patient’s individual needs and expectations.
Personal conversation: If there are several options for regulation, the doctor will explain the advantages and disadvantages of the respective method in a personal conversation and inform you about costs. Once the decision has been made for a specific brace, an appointment for individual impressions follows: Alginate impressions create a model of plaster that depicts the upper and lower jaw. For this, the patient is pressed a special shape on the teeth, in the previously a soft mass was filled, the so-called alginate. For young patients, there are several flavors of the mass, so the process is not too uncomfortable for you.
WHAT IS DENTAL PROSTHESIS?
What is a dental prosthesis? Teeth may be lost for various reasons. Lack of teeth; it can lead to speech impairment, poor nutrition, swallowing and digestive problems. It is a fact that good chewing is very important in the digestion of nutrients, while dental prosthesis restores the loss of function and aesthetics of the lost teeth.
What does a dental prosthesis do?
The main purpose of dental prosthesis; it allows the regaining of lost functions. Correction of impaired speech function and aesthetic appearance is provided by dental prosthesis.
Bunlar dışında ağız sağlığının büyük oranda geri kazandırılması, psikolojik olarak hastanın kendine güveninin geri gelmesini sağlamaktadır.
What are the prosthesis types?
1. Fixed prostheses (Crown-Bridge prostheses)
2.Movable dentures (Partial or Full dentures)
3. Implant prosthesis (fixed or removable prosthesis)
How long do I get used to using a prosthesis?
Should the prosthesis be worn continuously?
The dentist will give information about the processes and the time period in which the prosthesis should be used. To get used to the dental prosthesis, it should be worn continuously. Then you may only need to wear it at night. This can vary completely with the patient’s oral and dental structure and problems.
Eating and Chewing, Is it possible to eat with a dental prosthesis?
Completing the patient’s missing teeth will ease the act of eating. The patient may experience adaptation problems in the early stages of the dental prosthesis, but when this process is completed, the patient will be able to consume the food comfortably. In order to get used to the prosthesis during the initial process, eat soft foods and small bite slowly and chewing.
Does dental prosthesis provide aesthetic appearance?
Dental prostheses restore the aesthetically lost image. The patient’s smile, self-confidence and aesthetic concerns will change positively. Dental prosthesis; Supports cheeks and lips. In this way, it also helps to prevent wrinkles.
Should dental prosthesis adhesives be used?
Dental prosthesis adhesive cream can be applied to increase the retention of your well-matched dentures. The elastic cushion effect of the adhesive provides comfort to the prosthesis. Vegetable adhesives are recommended for adhesion problems such as difficult adhesion conditions and excessive accumulation of saliva. Using glue for poor and worn dentures may result in more irritation to the tissues. Prosthetic users should visit the dentist at least once a year.
How is dental prosthesis care performed?
Dental prostheses need care just like natural teeth. Daily oral and dental care is required. To remove the residual nutrients on the dental prosthesis, the teeth must be brushed twice a day with a Dental Prosthesis brush. For cleaning, dental prosthesis cleaning gel or cleaning tablets containing oxygen can be used.
It is inconvenient to use hard toothbrushes that may disrupt the polish of the prosthesis. Bleach or other chemical bleaches should not be used for dental prosthesis cleaning.
Smile design, one of the building blocks of aesthetic dentistry, is the common name for the process of natural beauty, which depends on the facial features of the patient when teeth or gums are damaged.
Today, many dentists use different methods and materials to create individual aesthetic smile designs. In this application, not only are the teeth; The appearance of the gums is also very important. In the smile design; The appearance of the lips may vary depending on the position of the teeth. By adjusting the tooth position, the tooth edges are arranged. For a beautiful smile, it is very important that the gum content is consistent. The tooth structure is regenerated by arranging the trapezium and the sharpness of the tooth. The tooth volume must be balanced and the teeth must be discolored or bleached. Bleaching and polishing can bleach up to 24 tons.
The treatment will then continue. Common procedures are gum removal, teeth whitening, tooth replacement if teeth are missing, orthodontic treatment. When these operations are performed, the margin of error is minimized by the measurements taken by the patient. If this can be done before each step, the patient is presented with the predicted result by modeling.
Since the smile design is a patient-oriented operation, it is misleading to give it a specific period of time.
During the design, several operations are available. Pain can be seen during or after some surgeries, while in some surgeries the procedure can be completed without the patient feeling pain. For more information about this topic, please visit our website or contact us for information.
Gingivitis, gum and bone loss or loose teeth are very common. By minimally invasive interventions in the context of a periodontal disease treatment, however, these complaints are often quickly and gently to get a grip. Gradually, we help the gums back to freedom from inflammation and regeneration.
How does the treatment of periodontal disease work?
Treatment in the early stages of gum disease involves the removal of adhesions (plaque and calculus) on the teeth and a smooth root surface. This process removes bacteria and irritants that cause inflammation in the gums. Usually, this treatment is enough to re-fit the gums to the tooth or to shrink the gum and remove the bag.
In most early-stage gum disease, daily oral care after removal of plaque, plaque removal, and a smooth root surface will suffice for successful treatment. More advanced cases may require surgical treatment. The purpose of this treatment is to cleanse the calculus in the deep periodontal pockets that surround the teeth, to ensure the bag is removed by shrinkage and a smooth root surface, and to form a lighter gum shape.
After periodontal treatment, the patients should be regularly examined by the dentist, the plaque control and the new tartar removed. But we should not forget that. No procedure is more advantageous than effective daily oral care to obtain the results achieved by the periodontal treatment.
What is mouth, tooth and maxillofacial surgery?
The tasks of oral and maxillofacial surgery include all surgical procedures that affect the area of the facial skull and the overlying soft tissues. The reasons for surgical treatment can be, for. As malpositions of the jaw, malformed soft tissues, but also be a tumor or accident damage in delicate facial area.

What is pedodontia?
All types of treatment and preventive dental interventions in children are referred to as pedodontics.
Once your child has a few teeth, you should get used to regular dental visits about once a year. The appointments with us should be experienced for the child as an everyday and beautiful experience. This works best if your child does not get to know us until it has pain and the first hole. Take your child to their own control appointments or arrange special appointments for your child.
Can caries formation be prevented?
A vaccine or drug that can prevent the development of tooth decay has not been developed today. However, there are applications to reduce tooth decay and to protect the tooth surface from caries. The first application to reduce tooth decay and protect the tooth surface from decay is to strengthen the tooth surface by adding fluorine. During the formation of the tooth, fluorine can be added to the structure of the enamel. In this way, the enamel is acid-resistant. There are two ways to take in fluorine. The first is the local application of fluorine. Local fluoride administration can take two forms. Professional fluorine application:
It is the practice of the dentist. This is done by applying certain fluorine-containing substances to the teeth. Even fluoride application: Fluorinated toothpastes and mouthwashes can be used
Crown of zircon Zirconia crown material is extremely biocompatible. The zirconium crown is usually very well tolerated and has a high light transmission. Properties of zirconium coating In dental aesthetics, metal structures have been used for a long time. These metal structures, however, caused problems because they both damaged the gums and did not give the desired appearance in terms of aesthetics. This problem is permanently solved by the zirconium coating technique, which is one of the most important developments in dental aesthetics. Zirconium is a white alloy used as a substitute for gray metal in porcelain coatings. The most important feature of zirconium alloys is that their translucency is very high, as with our natural teeth. Thanks to this feature, it is used more in front teeth, especially with regard to the aesthetic appearance.
Zirconium coating is a painless process “After the teeth have been resized a bit, they are removed with precise measurement materials and sent to the lab. In the laboratory, the zirconium substructure and then the porcelain are produced in the desired color and dimensions on the model. Finally, the coating adapted to the tooth is permanently adapted to the tooth with special adhesives. The natural tooth is shaved 1-2 mm away from your surface. Zirconium coating has a long life, as long as it is checked regularly. If you want to change it later, the zirconium coatings are cut off and cause no discomfort. It does not cause tissue loss in teeth.
The healing process is short During the coating process of the zirconium teeth, neither pain nor pain is felt. The operation is performed under local anesthesia. Subsequently, a temporary layer of tooth color is applied to prevent sensitivity to heat and cold. Treatment with zirconium plating is completed in about one week in patients without gum problems. In patients with gum problems, the procedure takes a little longer, as gum treatment is required first.
It does not cause gingival recession, it does not produce aesthetically poor appearance, even if gum extraction occurs due to improper brushing. Since it contains no metal, it causes no taste changes in the mouth and causes no odor. Thanks to its smooth and slippery porcelain surface there is no plaque accumulation. Substances such as coffee, tea and cigarettes thus do not affect the tooth color. It is brushed like a natural tooth, floss and mouthwash are used. Like natural teeth, a zirconium coating can break when it touches a hard object or when a reverse force occurs. It is repaired by dentists like natural teeth. The dentist should be checked regularly every 6 months.
