Frequently Asked Questions

Periodontology is the field of dentistry concerned with the health of the gums and the tissues that support the teeth. The diagnosis and treatment of gum diseases, tartar cleaning, implant surgery and hard and soft tissue surgeries are the main topics of this field.

At our clinic, treatments in periodontology and oral & maxillofacial surgery are provided, primarily including gum treatment, tartar cleaning, implant surgery, impacted tooth extraction, cyst operations and smile aesthetics (gum aesthetics). The treatment suitable for you is determined through examination.

Bleeding, redness, swelling, sensitivity, bad breath and gum recession are the most common symptoms. If any of these are present, an examination is recommended; early assessment makes the process easier.

The instruments used are put through appropriate sterilisation processes and importance is given to single-use materials. The aim is to provide a safe and hygienic clinical environment for every patient.

Gum treatments are generally performed under local anaesthesia, so the aim is that no pain is felt during the procedure. Any mild discomfort that may occur afterwards can usually be managed with simple measures. The experience may vary from person to person.

Depending on the degree of recession, an attempt is made to halt its progression; in some cases the gum level can be rearranged with surgical methods. The appropriate approach and results vary from person to person and are determined through examination.

Tartar cannot be removed with a toothbrush or dental floss. Tartar that continues to accumulate can pave the way for gum inflammation, bleeding and, in the long term, advanced gum disease. Regular professional cleaning helps to reduce this process.

The general recommendation is a check-up every six months; however, your dentist may recommend a more frequent or different interval depending on your periodontal risk status. The appropriate frequency varies from person to person.

In smile aesthetics, gum level arrangements, gum aesthetics (pink aesthetics) and the improvement of periodontal health come to the fore. The treatment plan is determined on a personalised basis and results vary from person to person.

Excessive gum display when smiling can be evaluated with gum level arrangements depending on its cause. The appropriate method is determined after examination; each case is handled on its own terms.

Pink aesthetics is the aesthetic approach concerned with the level and harmony of the gum tissue around the teeth. Healthy and balanced gums form the basis of a natural-looking smile.

Implant treatment generally consists of a preliminary examination and imaging, placement of the implant in the jawbone, the healing (osseointegration) period and finally the prosthesis/crown application. The total process varies according to the person's bone structure.

The total duration, including the healing period, varies according to the person's bone structure and any additional procedures that may be required. The exact duration is planned after examination and imaging.

It is known that with proper care, regular check-ups and healthy gums, implants can be used for many years. The periodontal health around the implant directly affects its lifespan; a definite duration cannot be guaranteed and results vary from person to person.

It can be applied to most adults whose general health and jawbone structure are suitable. In some cases preparatory procedures may be required; suitability is determined after examination and imaging.

In the first few days, following your dentist's dietary and oral care instructions, avoiding smoking and attending check-up appointments positively affect the healing process. The process varies from person to person.

No. The decision to extract is made by evaluating the position of the tooth, the presence of pain or infection, its effect on adjacent teeth and cyst risk. Some asymptomatic impacted teeth can be kept under observation; the decision is determined through examination.

Since the procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, the aim is that no pain is felt during the extraction. Mild pain and swelling lasting a few days after the anaesthesia wears off is normal and can be managed with the medication your dentist recommends.

The first few days are the most intense period. Soft tissue usually heals within one to two weeks; bone healing may take longer. The healing rate varies from person to person and is monitored with check-ups.

Cysts may be asymptomatic for a long time; as they grow, swelling in the jaw, mild pain or numbness may be seen, and they are often noticed on an X-ray. Following radiological assessment, the cyst is surgically removed under local anaesthesia and the removed tissue is sent for pathological examination.

Soft tissue usually heals within one to two weeks; bone filling may take months and is monitored with radiological check-ups. Proper oral care supports healing and the process varies from person to person.

Hard tissue surgery covers procedures involving bone tissue, while soft tissue surgery covers procedures involving tissues such as the gums. These procedures are planned individually in situations such as pre-implant preparation, gum arrangements and similar cases.
