Bone loss can be caused by multiple factors such as getting older, gum disease or trauma. Hence, these dental implants are quite essential as they allow a stable support to the dental restoration due to the bone resorption in the jaw. In this manner the patients get a double present: from one side they have the opportunity to use their lost teeth again, from the other side they beautify their smiles and enhance their facial aesthetics. Dentist Polen Akkılıç and her team at LEMA Clinic are experienced at pinpointing the perfect patients and recommending tailor-made answers for those encountering the lack of bone volume.

What is Subperiosteal Abscess Tooth in Dental?

A subperiosteal abscess is a collection of pus caused by an infection under the membrane covering the jawbone and is usually a result of decay or infection of the tooth. This ailment can be accompanied by pain, swelling, and the risk of other complications. If the infection continues to advance, it could cause the bone to be damaged or resorbed. The infection may also, in the worst cases, hinder the proper positioning of dental implants, including subperiosteal implants.

Do not forget that early intervention for subperiosteal abscess drastically changes the outcome. Most of the time, the infection is removed by the use of antibiotics, surgery for drainage might be needed in some cases. At LEMA Dental Clinic, Professor Doctor Coşkun Yıldız and his team are diligent in first locating and thoroughly treating infections and other oral health problems before implant therapies are conducted, thereby ensuring a safe and successful treatment plan.

Definition of Subperiosteal Reaction

Subperiosteal reaction denotes structural changes of the periosteum that are due to inflammation, infection, or trauma. Such a response in dentistry may extend to the application as well as the performance of implants. The list of possible troubles that may come along with this condition includes the loss or alteration of bone density, thus making the positioning of the usual or subperiosteal implants more challenging. It is necessary to carry out a complete diagnosis and administer the correct treatment in order to avoid any unfortunate impacts, such as the failure of the implant.

At LEMA Clinic, Dentist Polen Akkılıç and her team perform extensive diagnostic procedures to uncover all possible triggers of subperiosteal reaction. By intervening in these health problems at the beginning stage, they make sure the most favorable environment is available for the implants to be introduced.

What Is Subperiosteal Dental Implant Technique And Surgery?

Subperiosteal dental implant surgery is a technique for dental reconstruction of patients, who lack sufficient healthy jawbone for installation of traditional implants, and thus, cannot be saved with usual methods. In this surgery, the implant is fixed directly on the upper surface of the jawbone, the area under the gums, and it is fabricated in such a way that it matches the contours of the bone. Such a method is highly indicated in the case of very significant bone loss which does not allow the placement of traditional endosteal implants.

The operation is done while the patient is under local anesthesia and involves gum incisions to carry the subperiosteal implant. The procedure is very precise and well coordinated by experienced professionals like Dentist Polen Akkılıç and her team and, hence, the highest possible positive outcome can be assured. Subsequently to the implant insertion, the gums are closed and the recovery process starts. This method is a highly effective one for those patients who are not suitable for traditional implants because of bone loss or other complications.

Subperiosteal Dental Implants Before and After in Turkey

Before the subperiosteal dental implant operation, most of the patients had severe bone loss that made the traditional implant procedure either very difficult or entirely impossible. But the patients are given back their function either after the operation in most of the cases and thus, the procedure enables them to regain their lost confidence levels and the ability to eat and speak comfortably.

At LEMA Dental Clinic in Istanbul, Turkey, the transformation is evident. Patients who were once considered impossible cases of dental implants due to bone loss can, with the help of Dentist Polen Akkılıç and her team, now experience the remarkable benefits of subperiosteal implants. Before and after photos of LEMA Dental Clinic reveal the outstanding changes in both the look and the function, hence, patients are enabled to smile and eat without worry.
