Your smile and teeth are crucial for making a first impression. We all know the impact a beautiful smile has on others. A beautiful smile gives you a more confident, high-quality, energetic, dynamic, and youthful impression.

Porcelain laminate is one of the treatment options within aesthetic and prosthetic dentistry that requires the least amount of tooth reduction. Depending on the position of the tooth to receive the laminate, a small amount of cutting may sometimes be necessary, while in other cases, light surface abrasion similar to sanding may be sufficient. The amount of tooth reduction needed is determined by planning based on the position of the teeth, your expectations, and aesthetic requirements.

In cases of severe damage to the tooth crown, a fracture in the crown area, the presence of large old fillings, or excessive discoloration due to root canal treatment, it is more appropriate to protect the remaining tooth structure by crowning the tooth. For individuals who do not accept orthodontic treatment and have severe crowding that cannot be corrected with laminate, porcelain crowning can be performed as an aesthetic adjustment.

The procedure of trimming and crowning the teeth adjacent to the space in order to eliminate tooth deficiency is called a bridge. Today, a porcelain bridge has become a treatment option preferred only in cases where an implant is not placed in the gap area.

Do you want a more striking smile in just 30 minutes? Then you’re in the right place. This treatment is perfect for you. Most studies show that individuals with whiter and healthier teeth make a stronger first impression. So, just visit us 30 minutes before an important appointment.

In the presence of very large cavities, when old large fillings need to be replaced, or when a small fracture occurs in the crown part of the tooth, the remaining tooth structure weakens. Regular dental filling material is not sufficient to strengthen and protect the remaining tooth walls. Normal dental fillings are used for small to medium-sized cavities, filling the decay-related gaps and preserving the integrity of the tooth.

When tooth loss occurs, titanium screws placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth are called dental implants. A dental implant acts as a substitute for your missing tooth and is embedded into the bone like a tooth root.

Prostheses vary depending on the number of missing teeth in the mouth. When only one or two to three teeth are missing, fixed prostheses can be used to compensate for the gaps. However, if many teeth are lost and the remaining teeth are not strong enough to support a fixed prosthesis, then we resort to removable prostheses.

At the point where our teeth meet the gums, there is a 1–2 mm area of free gingiva that is not attached to the tooth. This unattached area forms a pocket-like space called the gingival sulcus. Food, drinks, bacteria, and minerals from saliva can accumulate in this pocket.

The most basic treatment for healthy gums is regular tartar removal. However, if the gums are genetically prone to disease or have been severely neglected previously, tartar removal alone may not be sufficient.

Maintaining healthy gums is important for all dental procedures. Unhealthy gums appear swollen and red, and can cause bleeding during brushing, bad breath, and discomfort in the gums, while also negatively affecting the appearance of your smile.

One of the common conditions we frequently encounter today due to the stresses of life is the habit of teeth grinding and clenching. Usually performed unconsciously, teeth clenching or grinding during sleep can cause significant damage to the teeth and joints.

Tooth sensitivity is a very common issue and can be quite uncomfortable depending on its severity. Sensitivity may occur if:
There is wear on the teeth (due to trauma, teeth grinding, or hard brushing)
There are cavities in the teeth
There are old large fillings
Acidic foods are consumed frequently
Very hot or very cold foods are eaten

The outermost layer of our teeth is the hard enamel, beneath it lies the softer dentin, and at the core is the tooth’s nerve tissue. This nerve tissue extends from the crown down through the tooth root via canals, providing vitality and sensation to the tooth. If a cavity is neglected or overlooked, it can progress and reach the nerve tissue. Sensitivity to hot or cold and pain when biting are signs of this condition. In such cases, the procedure to remove the tooth’s nerve is called root canal treatment.

One of the major issues in the new era is impacted wisdom teeth. Also known as the third molars, wisdom teeth in most people either partially emerge (partially impacted) or remain completely unerupted.

In cases where all teeth are missing, 4 or 6 implants are placed in the upper and lower jaws to support fixed prostheses. In such systems, temporary prostheses are placed on the same day as the implants or within 72 hours. This way, you start with no teeth and finish the day with fixed prostheses in your mouth.

In the upper jaw, above our back teeth, there are cavities called the maxillary sinuses. After the extraction of the upper back teeth, bone resorption occurs in that area.

In cases of skeletal abnormalities of the teeth and jaws, developmental issues, or irregularities in tooth alignment, orthodontic treatment is necessary.

Dental bonding is a procedure in which a material is applied and bonded to the surface of the tooth to restore the tooth’s structure or improve its aesthetics.
